Results Fitness Metabolic Training DVD
Tags: One of the most requested things I am asked is “what is your favorite exercise for X?” or “if you could only do one exercise what would it be?”
You asked. We responded with the Results Fitness Exercise Library DVD Set
These are the most commonly used exercises at Results Fitness.
This 2 DVD set contains over 180 exercises with coaching cues, tips, instruction, and explanations for why we use certain exercises.
The exercises are presented in order of difficulty, from the most regressed version of an exercise to the most advanced version.
The most commonly used exercises are recorded and given to you in a easy to understand, technically accurate video that will give you the tools you need to be confident in coaching clients and athletes.

Designing Successful Semi-Private Training Programs DVD
Semi-private training is the hottest trend in the fitness business right now. This year for Perform Better I presented on the practicalities of designing programs for these small groups and tips for easy implementation -something that we have considered to have revolutionized at Results Fitness
We go over
- How to integrate assessments – including how we use the Functional Movement Screen at Results Fitness,
- How we select appropriate exercises based on the screen,
- Dynamic warm-up
- Corrective exercise, – how much and what to do
- Core training – the difference between top-down core training and bottom up
- Stabilization training vs Dynamic Stabilization
- Metabolic work – why traditional interval training is dead and rarely used at Results Fitness
The DVD also includes some footage of the hands-on sessions including practical examples of how to put into action the lecture material.
We managed to implement the semi-private system with 100+ participants in a one hour session.
“I’ve never seen a trainer control a room the way Alwyn Cosgrove does. At first glance it just looks like a great workout – but when you’re truly engaged – you see all the subtleties in what he’s doing with the programming”

Supervised exercise versus non-supervised exercise for reducing weight in obese adults.
Nicolaï SP et al
J Sports Med Phys Fitness. 2009 Mar;49(1):85-90.
This research study looked at the effects of training with supervision/instruction (ie a qualified trainer) versus “advice”
Two groups – Group one met a trainer twice a week for 4 months (as a group).
Group two received basic advice to increase physical activity and access to a fully equipped gym (any exercise they did was unsupervised).
The group with supervision lost on average 362% more fat over a 4-month period. (Total fat loss of 13.4lbs in the coached group – and only 3.7lbs in the advice only group)
Interesting side note -they made these improvements without ANY dietary advice given.
This is not a new finding, nor is it that surprising as a good coach or training partner/team can really help with your results. The fact that the group exercised together only served to improve those results further (as social support is one of the key variables in fat loss success) so I’m not sure that the supervision and instruction alone was entirely responsible for the enhanced results – or the social support was part of it. However, it’s clear that together it’s an unbeatable combination.
You’d also have to assume that there was more instruction in the supervised group as there was more contact with instructors.
Another study came out a few years ago showing that a participant would exercise 30% harder or more (can’t remember the exact number) with someone just watching them (i.e. not offering any instruction or encouragement). You can imagine how that could translate into much greater results, when added with a good program, great coaching, great social support and great instruction.
If you are serious about changing your body – hire a coach, or get a great training partner or team to help you.
In the past year, Results Fitness has been featured as one of America’s top ten gyms (by Men’s Health magazine) and been named by industry consultant Thomas Plummer as the most profitable gym in the USA per square foot.
As Anthony Robbins would say – this is not to impress you – but to impress upon you that we are doing things right. As I often say – I am just a kid from a small town in Scotland that did a few things right….
One of those things, and probably what we are known for, is our fat loss programming and coaching with our clients.
In March of this year, we’ll be running a two-day, no-holds-barred, everything revealed program design seminar – pulling back the curtain to reveal everything we do at Results Fitness to design and implement the best programs on the planet.
We get better results in less time than any of our competition.
And now we’re sharing that…
From the desk of the Results Fitness Team…
We have been working on completely revamping our programming templates. You see, as we have added in some of the new tools over the last 5 years including TRX, kettlebells, ropes and various other equipment that we use on a day to day basis we realized that we needed to start over from scratch thinking through the ENTIRE PROCESS of designing and implementing a Results Guaranteed Experience for our clients. We are now ready for the first time EVER to reveal our BRAND NEW information, thought process and completely revamped programming and coaching process.
This seminar will include:
- The EXACT Principles that every Results Fitness Program is based off of as of RIGHT NOW (Brand NEW!).
- The thought process behind the brand new program design templates to give you the tools to create your own results producing experience for your clients.
- How to use assessment techniques and not just assess for the sake of assessing and create a program for your clients based off of what you learn about them from the initial meeting.
- The STEP BY STEP Action plan to designing and re-creating the process we go through everyday at Results Fitness, for your clients and business. Including how to know what to do to “Release the Brakes” with some of your clients who continually plateau with their results.
You’ll leave the seminar knowing how to write a program and create the bigger picture that you can absolutely guarantee your clients will get results with.
