WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?


Clinicians

As a physical therapist, I know there is a real lack of relevant information out there when working with people who enjoy Olympic weightlifting, bodybuilding, powerlifting, and fitness. It's challenging to find evidence-based yet practical rehabilitation tips. This is exactly what I do on a daily basis and what I plan on sharing with you.

Coaches

A good coach requires a lot of things. They must know how to assess for mobility limitations, how to modify for athletes in pain, and how to prevent injuries in their athletes all while getting their clients towards their goals. This is no small task. I'll supply you with the tools to help set you apart from the competition.

FAQs

Is this a physical DVD or all online?

This course is 100% online through a platform called Kajabi.  There is no physical DVD.  The course can be accessed via any phone, tablet, or computer.

Can I get CEUs if I am a therapist, athletic trainer, or coach?

This FPF Shoulder Course has been approved by the Texas Board of Physical Therapy Examiners for 19 CCUs for physical therapists and physical therapy assistants.

 

How long do I have access to this course?

How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course (pending you are not sharing free access to friends!) for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.

Are the information and terminology too complex for me?

Definitely not! Dan uses highly scientific information but works hard to explain complex things in a simple language. This is in an effort to help everyone understand, and also to help transfer the ideas to the gym the next day.

How much does the course cost?

The Ultimate Shoulder Course is by far the most comprehensive course I have built relating to Shoulder Injuries in the gym. The current price of the program is $399.00 but I do offer a sale on the program periodically throughout the year.
