The first of the four DVDs filmed during our June 2009 IronOnline weekend in Draper, Utah, this two-dvd lecture (2 hrs, 18 min) covers what Dan considers the most important aspects of strength training for the athlete, as well as the general fitness enthusiast.
Told with humor and great insight, you’ll learn:
- ~ The Role of the Strength Coach
- ~ Levels of Strength Coaching
- ~ How a Home Trainer Becomes His Own Coach
- ~ The Influence of Strength Coaching on Performance
- ~ Strength and Athletic Performance
- ~ How to Narrow Your Training Focus
- ~ Systematic vs Systemic Learning
- ~ Setting a Non-Competitive Training Goal
- ~ Phasic vs Tonic Muscles
- ~ How to Stay Youthful while Aging
- ~ Movements, Not Muscles
- ~ Dan’s Hip Displacement Continuum
Find out why Coach John is considered the go-to guy by top fitness professionals when they want to know what really works in strength and conditioning: It’s because he knows, and he teaches it well.
Also on this dvd, you’ll find his chalkboard slides and seminar handouts via pdf files accessible from your computer. The other DVDs from the workshops, Olympic Lifting Basics, Perfecting Your Kettlebell Form, and Warm-ups, Workouts and Barbell Complexes, will be available this fall.

HELLO, BOMBER FANS!
I’M A LONG TIME (ALMOST ANCIENT) FAN OF THE
BLONDE BOMBER. I WAS INTRODUCED TO MISTER DAVID DRAPER WHEN I WAS MYBE 16 - 17 YEARS OLD. PREVIOUSLY, I GLOMMED ONTO BILL PEARL, WHO WAS ARGUABLY THE BEST IN THE 60′S.
BUT WHEN I PICKED MY FIRST COPY IF MUSCLE AND FITNESS, I COULD HAVE SWORN THAT I SAW THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MAN ON THE PLANET!
AS IT TURNED OUT, HIS NAME WAS DAVE DRAPER. HE HAD LOOKS , CHARISMA,
AND A TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE OF THE
BUSINESS, ALL WRAPPED UP IN ONE BODYBUILDER!
A LITTLE LATER ON, I SAW HIM IN A TONY CURTIS
MOVIE, DIRECTED BY ALEXANDER “SANDY” MCKENDRICK CALLED, “DON’T MAKE WAVES”.
I WAS BLOWN AWAY.
THUS, DAVE DRAPER’S CAREER AS MY MENTOR
BEGAN, AND DAVE NEVER EVEN KNEW IT.
NOW, I AM WRITNG THIS AFTER WATCHING
TWO (2) CLIPS ON DAN JOHN , A PROLIFIC,
ENERGETIC AND INVENTIVE SPORTS TRAINER.
TO SAY THE TRUTH, I HAVEN’T CLICKED ON THE
“BUY” BUTTON YET, HOWEVER, I MUST SAY THAT
THIS HAS TO BE A WORLD-CLASS PRODUCT, AND
MR/ DAN JOHN MUST BE A RARE AND ELEGANT
MAN. EVERYTHING DAVE DRAPER STANDS FOR
AS A MAN, A BODYBUILDER, AN ADVICE-GIVER,
A WRITER, SPELLS OUT HONESTY, INTEGRITY,
QUALITY, AND CRAFTSMANSHIP.
THEREFORE, THE $39.95 FOR THIS DVD IS
TRIVIA. EVERY REAL BODYBULDER CAN TELL
YOU SOMETHING ABOUT STEWARDSHIP, AND
INVESTMENT.
TO HEAR A TRAINER OF DAN JOHN’S LEVEL
SPEAK ABOUT GOALS, MINDSET, AND EVERY-
THING ELSE THAT PERTAINS TO PHYSICAL
TRAINING, IS A GIFT: PURE AND SIMPLE
THAT DAVE DRAPER SUGGESTS THAT IT
MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA THAT WE SUPPORT
DAN JOHN BY BUYING THIS DVD, IS GOOD
ENOUGH FOR ME.
THERE ARE REASONS WHY DAVE DRAPER
AND HIS METHODS AND IDEAS HAVE OUT-
LASTED MOST OF HIS CONTEMPORAIES.
I NAMED THEM, ABOVE.
THANKS, DAVE. YOU ARE BIGGER THAN LIFE.
LOVE,
HES

Thanks for your great comments, Doc. I’ll make sure Dave sees your note.
You saw this newsletter column, correct? Part one of an interview Dave did recently. You’ll enjoy the memories.
