In this episode Gerry gets the rare chance to be interviewed for the show instead of hosting!

Muscles and Management welcomes on Bryan Eisenberg as he conducts a conversation with Gerry regarding a walk through of his mindset and thought process when programming for athletes.

From the types of software and programming applications used, the testing process each athlete goes through when going through the door and how it all ties together, this conversation hits every area of program design from Gerry's perspective.

Additionally, the conversation tackles how to put together a schedule for a program, the different categories to outline, primary exercise selection and how to determine what focuses will be, and the week- by-week process of varying exercise selection for accessories.

All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!
