Scenes from "Eye of the Trainer" video: Still Not Sure? Shatterproof Spine has been my most popular, best selling workshop video to date.

That is why I developed Eye of the Trainer. This 30 minute video is packed with 7 exercises that become your muscular assessments. I have chosen 7 exercises that are performed in gyms across the US. While performed regularly by exercisers everywhere--they are typically done incorrectly. In the video, the deviations are explained why they may occur. Following each demonstration is some auxiliary exercises that you can add to your workout to help strengthen the muscles causing the deviation.
Each movement is depicted with images illustrating the correct version and the common deviations you will encounter.

BONUS PRODUCT #1 You will also receive my newest electronic book that complements Shatterproof Spine titled "5 Practical Drills To Identify At-Risk Low Back Sufferers" .
Shatterproof Spine was created by me. I have trained clients for 12 years as my bread and butter. Personal training is not a hobby for me. It is my career. It pays the mortgage, the bills and puts gas in the car. With that being said, at the time I created the Shatterproof Spine outline, I had worked with numerous amateur golfers that exhibited low back pain.
I firmly believe that if you limit yourself to only 3-4 movements as your "screen"; you are missing out on valuable feedback that can help develop a more efficient training program.
This eBook introduces 5 movements that I have incorporated into my muscular screening assessments and exercise preparation.
Combined with effective screening and coaching, these drills will help you and your clients to build a STRONG ATHLETIC LOW BACK! BONUS PRODUCT #2 Every exercise is an assessment.
These tried and true drills have helped me devise exercise programs simply based off the feedback I am able to acquire.
What I found was astonishing. Applying certain exercises, mobility & stability drills, along with certain extensibility drills, I was able to help clients develop a stronger core and lower back! Because they were feeling better when strength training, we were able to work out harder with more weight and increased cardiovascular exercise.
After reading some of the research on joint dysfunction and low back ailments--particularly from Dr. Stuart McGill and Shirley Sahrmann --I was prepared to try what I have learned on my clients. It wasn't enough for me to simply know the research...I had to apply it to my clientele and come up with my own conclusions.
