Over the past 12 years, today's guest Luke Leaman has taught thousands of personal trainers and coaches how to get better at their craft, and how to build great careers.
The co-founder of Muscle Nerds first picked up a barbell at 8
years old and never stopped. After attending a Poliquin seminar, he
was hooked and eventually ended up working for Charles and
travelling the world teaching. Helping others and this industry are
his passion.
Luke’s seen it all, has coached high level athletes as well as gen
pop, has an endless thirst for information and is an absolute
wealth of knowledge. In this conversation we get into programming
and periodization, client assessment, the application of aerobic
fitness, exercise selection and more.
If you're a coach, I highly recommend you get out your pen and
paper for this conversation and check out Muscle Nerds via the link
below.
