Training System

The Hardbodies International Training System starts with a 23-point body composition analysis with skin-fold calipers, digital scale and tape measure.  Then, there are five 2-hour hands on training sessions at a private training focus facility per week for four consecutive weeks.  These sessions are done with an ACE certified, Professional Trainer.  The trainer has over 10 years experience as a Body Symmetry Expert-Judge for the National Physique Committee, a 100% success record in training Body for Life Grand Champions, and is also the world’s leading (and the mid-south’s only) Physique Augmentation Specialist.

 Sessions are done with precise and constant instruction on proper use of free-weights to maximize results while preventing injury.  Proper technique on breathing, body position, grip, stretch and contraction form are taught.  Close attention to even the most minute details are comprehensively instructed and supervised with a truly hands-on approach.  Two body-parts (muscle-groups) are worked each day, a primary group followed by the secondary or assisting group that would be most pre-fatigued (worked-out to some degree of exhaustion) each day.  A timer is set between sets to provide a measured adenosine-tri-phosphate (ATP) recovery time to the muscles at the cellular level.  This allows for maximum performance ability in the next set.  These precise times are targeted to muscle- size and ATP regeneration-ability. 

 Besides the 23-point measurements of the body composition analysis chart, five additional charts are constantly updated on every set and fraction of a repetition that is completed.  Every client has a total of 6 charts of specific numerical documentation constantly updated for the purpose of precise results verification, documentation and physique management.

 These physique augmentation training sessions are precise polar opposites of sports-related training sessions.  Just as it is a physiological fact that a healthy-superior physique has never nor could ever be achieved by sports-related training (though thousands mistakenly attempt this each year to no avail) we can not guarantee any sports-related performance enhancements.  In fact if sports-related performance training is all that is desired we would recommend a training organization who specializes in just that.  We do not advise our clients in a way that would cause in excess of 50 lbs. of fat loss in a 12 week or less period.  This would cause an unhealthy loss of lean tissue through over-training or starvation.  Complete blood-profiles from a physician are recommended before beginning and again after 3 months.  The 23-point measurements of the body composition analysis are re-taken and compared again for results at the end of each four week session/package.

 There is no contract to sign obligating a client to take more than one four week package.  They have the option to pre-purchase an additional training package at the end of each four weeks.  Training sessions can be postponed for any reason by the client with no time or financial penalty as long as the client postpones more than 24hrs in advance of the session(s).
