Intelligent Exercise Design & The Max Effort Black Box Seminar
with Michael Rutherford



The Intelligent Exercise Design and Max Effort Black Box Seminar is for any trainer, coach or athlete looking for improved programming for athletic fitness and CrossFit performance. Developed in 2003 and field tested on hundreds of athletes, the Max Effort Black Box (M.E.B.B.) was the first training template design to blend strength conditioning with CrossFit mixed mode workouts.

Items and topics to be discussed:

-Coaching Philosophy
-Training Methods
-MEBB Movement Pools
-Movement Pool Techniques
-MEBB constructs
-Selecting the proper movements for your population or application
-Considerations for selecting and designing CrossFit workouts
-Designing templates for your clients/athletes or groups

At the conclusion of the seminar all participants will possess additional tools to properly approach strength and conditioning design.

The seminar will be a combination of lecture and hands on technique discussion. Participants are encouraged to participate in the technique work but are not required as such.

As part of their tuition, all participants will receive three FREE M.E.B.B. training trackers on MS Excel.
