THE PHYSICS OF FITNESS: MASTER THE 16 BIOMECHANICAL PRINCIPLES THAT ARE ESSENTIAL FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE AND LEARN HOW TO APPLY THEM IN REAL-WORLD APPLICATION

About the Physics of Fitness 

In this program we explain various biomechanical principles that influence the value of an exercise.


These include:

. What constitutes an ideal direction of anatomical motion (evolutionary musculoskeletal design)
. What constitutes an ideal direction of resistance (which influences the physics of muscle loading)
. And various neurological triggers which cause a muscle to be fully “innervated” (receive a full neurological signal to contract) or be “shut off” die to a conflict of interest (asking the body to do two things at one time, which oppose each other).

 

This program also includes evaluation videos of commonly used exercises and why they should be avoided if the person’s goal is muscle building.
 

What you will learn in the Physics of Fitness 


. Learn how to create efficient workout programs while minimizing the risk of injury using proven physics and biomechanical principles.​​​​​

 

. Ensure that each exercise you select optimizes efficiency, productivity and safety

LIVE SEMINARS:
THE DOUG BRIGNOLE & SMARTTRAINING365 LIVE SEMINARS (HOUSTON & NEW YORK)

 

About The Houston Seminar

This seminar lays out, very plainly, how physics—the way levers work— influences the amount of load a muscle receives with a given amount of  weight.

 

Using demonstration devices and illustrations, it explains how  human limbs and joints work, how to get the most benefit with the least  amount of wasted effort, how to avoid injuries, and how to maximize  muscle gains.  


Part 1: Learn how physics, anatomy and neurology impact the exercises we use.

It is important to understand the factors which optimize or compromise the benefits and risks of every resistance exercise.

 

Part 2: Learn about the “16 biomechanical principles”
Every resistance exercise—intended for the purpose of achieving optimum muscular development—can be evaluated using the 16 biomechanical principles. An exercise that conforms with all of these principles (with the exception of the principles that are not relevant to a particular exercise) would have the highest rating. It would be considered “ideal” (un-compromised) for the purpose of muscular development.

 

Part 3: The BRIG20 Exercises
The BRIG20 are the 20 “best” exercises for the primary muscle groups because they comply with the “16 biomechanical principles”.

 

An exercise with higher compliance of these principles has a higher value—in terms of muscular development, energy cost vs. benefit ratio, and safety. An exercise with lower compliance of these factors has a lower value.

 

. You will discover that each muscle has one ideal movement, with the exception of 2 muscles.

 

. You will discover that changing exercises and the idea of muscle confusion for the purpose of muscle growth is not true.

 

. You will discover the ideal frequency, sets & reps, intensity, recovery and much more...

About The New York Seminar

NEW YORK SEMINAR (5 hours)

 

This program was filmed live during a seminar delivered by SmartTraining365 to a group of powerlifters.

 

In this video you will watch Doug explain the physics factors that determine how much load a muscle is getting, which is based on a formula of weight being lifted x the length of the limb moving the weight x the angle of the relative to the direction of resistance.

 

This means that a muscle can be loaded more (and therefore strengthened more) while moving a lighter weight more strategically as compared with moving a heavier weight that utilizes compromised mechanics.

 

This is critically important for Powerlifters because it shows how you can prepare for competition in the off-season… loading and strengthening the individual muscles in “The Big Three “(Power Lifts)” , without over-stressing the skeleton and joints.

 

It also explains the importance of optimally working the individual muscles that participate in the Power Lifts, so they can better support the actual Lift during competition. 
 

Topics include:
. Using The BRIG20 as the foundation for all sports
. Tailoring supplemental exercises for a particular sport
. Understanding “natural” (safe) joint function
. Periodization for PowerLifting
Combining Bodybuilding and Powerlifting

What is included in the seminars

Watching the recorded live seminars will help you understand in depth:

- The BRIG20 exercises

STORIES FROM OUR CERTIFIED MEMBERS

Here is what our certified members are saying about SmartTraining365 programs:

I thought I was knowledgeable after 35 years In the industry. But the reality is without the knowledge of Bio-mechanics your actual knowledge of resistance training is based on the Rinse & Repeat Bro science handed down over 70 years. Being educated in biomechanics is to put you head and shoulders over other coaches or personal trainers. 

Andrew John, AU

Student Of The Physics Of Fitness + The BRIG20 Program

My journey with Doug started with his fantastic book in February and so bloody happy it have. Otherwise I'd be still squatting and doing other silly exercises that fitness influencers' do. So when the offer came in I knew I had to do the course - which I can only recommend- to absolutely everyone! I'll be proudly spreading my knowledge here in Switzerland. 

Goda, CH

Student Of The Physics Of Fitness + The BRIG20 Program

I must say that I’m very satisfied with its contents. Doug has a theoretical approach at the right point, but there is a lot of logic behind his ideas, challenging the classic dogmatic and “moralistic” die hard notions also supported by many academics that I never liked either.

Lorenzo, IT

Student Of The Physics Of Fitness + The BRIG20 Program

This course fast tracked my research.
The exercises identified in the book and course are indisputable if you use logic and apply the knowledge to your workouts. As a business owner and personal trainer, I share responsibility for the care and safety of my clients. I highly recommend it.

Kenneth, USA

Student Of The Physics Of Fitness + The BRIG20 Program

I absolutely love my program. I am going to do the three day split for this phase and alternating from cables to free weights with some of my exercises. My body is responding so well, mind is clear and focused. I have learned so much and I love it. I enjoy the videos very much, again visual learner here.

Nuray Carr, LMT, DE

Student Of The Physics Of Fitness + The BUILD&BURN Program

Putting emotions aside and looking at building muscle logically Biomechanics made so much sense, Doug’s course teaches one to build muscle effectively, efficiently and safely, my clients are loving it and I’m progressing again, even at 60! A massive thanks to Moe Larbi for his valued support throughout my learning

DOES OUR METHODOLOGY WORK?

Here is what our satisfied members are saying about SmartTraining365 programs:

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is SmartTraining365 all about?

Efficiency, productivity and safety. These are the parameters by which all resistance exercises should be evaluated. 

Our mission is to help you understand the difference between optimally productive exercise, and compromised exercise, so you can create efficient workout programs and provide the safest and most productive ways to perform resistance exercise using proven physics and biomechanical principles.

New stuff comes all the time. Why should we trust your methodology?

In this day and age, we are bombarded with an excessive amount of information that may or may not be accurate or useful.

 

The BRIG20 exercises are based on proven scientific research as well as trial and error, which allow you to be more efficient and effective in your workout routine.

 

Every resistance exercise has a bio-mechanical “profile”, which can be used to evaluate its mechanical efficiency and also its anatomical / neurological efficacy.

 

When you understand the biomechanical profile of an exercise, you can determine whether or not performing that exercise is a wise choice for your specific goal.

 

To be as effective as possible in your workout you need to know which exercises allow optimal muscular development, and how to perform them correctly. You also need to know which exercises to avoid so that you don’t waste your time and effort and run the risk of injuries.

 

It's logical, it's scientific, it's factual.

What is the difference between the BRIG20 and the BUILD & BURN program?

In the BRIG20 program you’ll find a demonstration of all the recommended exercises as well as alternative exercises. Also included in the BRIG20, is a video explaining how the recommended exercises will benefit you. If you want to learn how to use those exercises in a periodization program, how many sets and reps you should do, how often you should work each muscle group etc., then you will need the BUILD & BURN program. 

Are the BRIG20 exercises safe and good for building muscle?

If your goal is to build muscle, focusing on traditional compound movements (i.e., barbells, deadlifts, squats) is suboptimal and puts you at a greater risk of injury. Our goal is to help you train your body safely and effectively.

 

Choosing the wrong exercises and poor form can cause long- term injuries that will affect your body’s ability to train and build muscle mass.

 

There are better ways to develop your muscles without all the wear and tear that traditional exercises may cause. When done properly, the BRIG20 exercises allow for perfect alignment and no unnecessary rotation or torquing of the joints.

 

This will allow you to use the intensity that is required to build muscle efficiently.

What is BRIG20?

The "BRIG20" are the 20 BEST exercises for the primary muscle groups of the body because they promote optimum efficiency, productivity, and safety. This is true whether you are an athlete, a body builder, or a beginner.

 

These exercises allow for maximum muscle development with the least amount of wasted effort and risk of injury. Whether your goal is to build muscle, to compete as a body builder, sports conditioning, or to just be healthier and look and feel your best, the BRIG20 will be the most advantageous to you in the pursuit of your goals.

The traditional weight training exercises have been around for so many years, why change? 

Most traditional resistance exercises are compromised. They may seem generally effective for the first few months of training, but eventually, they will subject you to injuries, or cause muscular development plateaus.

 

The question is not “How do I develop a muscular physique”, it should be “How do I develop a muscular physique without wasting time and effort and risking injury”?

 

Proof of arrival is not proof of the best road. You can either take the bumpy and muddy road or the smooth clear road to arrive at the same destination.

 

The difference is how much effort and how much “wear and tear” (injury) it will take to get there. The BRIG20 will show you there's a smarter and faster way to build muscle mass and definition with a lesser risk of injury compared to “traditional” resistance exercises.

 

Using the BRIG20 you can achieve the same or even better results with less overall effort and injury.

How can I be sure these exercises will work for me?

 It’s true that everyone is different, but essentially our bodies all function the same way. We all have the same skeletal structure, muscular attachments, and muscular function.

 

Therefore, the same rules about which resistance exercises are safer and more efficient apply to everyone. Biomechanics and physics are universal.

 

The BRIG20 program is for anyone who is interested in getting the most benefit from resistance training, with the least amount of wasted time and effort, and the lowest risk of injury.

What is "The Physics of Fitness Bootcamp" ?
 

The Physics of Fitness is an 8-week online bootcamp that teaches you how to optimize your training program and provides the safest and most productive ways to perform resistance exercise for you or your clients (if you're a trainer).

 

If the idea of learning how to create efficient workout programs and providing the safest and most productive ways to perform resistance exercise using the BRIG20 is exciting to you... The Physics of fitness online bootcamp is worth checking out. For more details on how to join the bootcamp, email us at: smarttraining365@gmail.com
