VBT and Remote Clients
Hey team, Is anyone currently regularly using VBT prescriptions with remote clients via an app such as METRICvbt or Qwik? I use enode in my gym regularly with clients and want to expand the systems to more remote clients and I am curious if anyone else has followed suit. Personally i'd most likely just take the hit for the subscription cost and allow clients access to the "team". My questions are: Does anyone here regularly use software only based VBT tools. (which one) If yes do your clients utilise them and do you feel they see it as a value add or pain in the ass What use cases do you use VBT regularly or irregularly with your clients

@Reed Wuttke Super helpful thank you. I have nearly concluded Bryan Manns booked and I am starting Will Flemings to follow. I can see a lot of value in the ability for strength training to be both autoregulated but also create more constraints in the prescription to get the desired stimulus. One of the bigger focus points is using it in a context with athletes with a strength power focus and keeping sets within the 20% velocity loss range to ideally prioritise the glycolytic fast twitch fibre adaptations.
Post QF Focus?
I’m curious about what everyone’s focus is post QF? Athletes: if you’re not moving on to semifinals - what is your plan for the “off season”? Will you compete this year in some in-person events? Dabble in Hyrox? ATHX? Xenom?! (The name 😂) Coaches: what are you preparing your athletes for? What is the primary training focus for your clients as you shift into the off season?

Online semi finals for a few with the goal of the games for 2 teen athletes Team semi finals Oceania fitness champs and Bangkok throwdown Limiter focus will vary but a common theme for many will be shifting towards a more strength focused phase of training
AMRAP VL for SHSPU
Hey Kyle, You mentioned the other day about using the VBT with sHSPU this is something I played around with when following some sHSPU progressions too a few weeks ago. I prescribe it usually in an AMRAP -2 or 3 format but have since changed to AMRAP VL as I think that’s a great auto regulator. When encouraging speed preservation for someone’s handstand push ups what is it you are trying to achieve? Is it as simple as training good movement mechanics to sustain rep speed/ minimise grinding reps that induce occlusion faster? Thank you

Program Design Review #1 is LIVE
First, thanks to @Jan Lenczuk for being willing to submit a real athlete’s program and open it up for discussion. It takes some guts to put your work out there. The intent behind these reviews is simply to give back to the coaching community. I’ve been coaching for a long time, and this is a way to share how I actually think through program design when I’m working with real constraints, not ideal scenarios. In this review, I walk through a full training week for Aga (Jan's client), a first-year RX athlete dealing with a shoulder issue, limited weekly training time, and long-term development goals. I start with athlete context and intent, then move into strength and hypertrophy decisions, gymnastics progressions, conditioning structure, and where I’d make adjustments or ask different questions. This is for coaches who want to improve how they think about programming, not just copy templates. If you have feedback on the format or ideas for making these more useful, let me know!

Super valuable, thank you
Program Design Review
I’m looking to pilot test a very brief program design review video series. The basic concept is: a coach submits a week or 2 weeks of programming for an athlete (along with context / athlete details / bullets re: intention) and I will film a short voice-over video (15min max) talking through my thoughts on the program, highlighting things that I think are creative solutions to problems and identifying places for possible upgrades. My plan would be to house these inside the skool platform and maybe eventually share clips from them on social media. Is anyone interested in submitting a program for a pilot review? If so, just drop a response here and I’ll reach out directly.
