Coach Better. Live Better.
A 2-day, hands-on workshop for fitness professionals who want to
✔️ coach with confidence
✔️ build systems that scale
✔️ stop burnout before it ends their career
Earn NSCA CEUs while learning tools you’ll use immediately with real clients.
This workshop exists because most certs don’t prepare you for real life.
You passed your exam.
You know anatomy.
You can coach a squat.
But no one taught you how to:
- Get true client buy-in
- Assess efficiently without overcomplicating everything
- Program fast and intelligently
- Set boundaries without feeling guilty
- Build systems that don’t require 60-hour weeks
That’s what The Complete Fit Pro Blueprint is for.
Your Instructors
Tony Gentilcore and Dean Somerset have a combined 45 years of experience in the fitness industry. They’ve been featured in international publications, taught workshops around the world, and are known for their ability to distill complex topics into actionable steps any trainer can use to make their work better.
Tony Gentilcore
Tony is the former co-owner of Cressey Sport Performance, a niche baseball specific training facility that developed players from high school through to each pro team in MLB. His current facility, Core Collective in Brookline, Massachusetts, provides a unique training environment to trainers, allied health professionals, and clients in a mico-lease format that allows him maximum freedom with minimal oversight.
Dean Somerset
Dean is a kinesiologist and Clinical Exercise Physiologist in Edmonton, Alberta Canada. He doesn’t own a facility, but has found success as an independent trainer. He’s consulted with Fortune 500 companies, commercial and private training facilities, and other independent trainers on how to improve their training programs all while actively training clients, writing, and teaching workshops.
Who This Is For
This weekend is designed for:
- Personal trainers (1–10+ years experience)
- Strength & conditioning coaches
- Independent trainers and studio coaches
- Coaches who feel capable, but stretched thin
If you’ve ever thought:
- “I’m good at coaching, but I overthink everything.”
- “I spend way too much time programming.”
- “I don’t know what to charge — or how to raise rates.”
- “I love training people but I’m burning out.”
You’re in the right place. These are big reasons why a lot of coaches leave the industry, and we want to make sure you can find success without the struggle with proven methods to reduce administrative load, increase your schedule density, and get you some of your life off the floor back into your control.
