Training is as simple and complex as you want it to be. For me I like to get complex to an extent where I am not doing too much, but also having fun with experimenting.

For the adults I train it stays even more simple, most adults that want to train for health/general strength need a very simple program with a few individual needs/goals that may need to be met with other methods.

Two observations I noticed today. 1. An athlete attempting a 225lb bench press did not complete the rep. I am very sure that it was because mentally he built up the 225lb to be this large unbeatable monster and the reframe of it is just another 10lbs to your bench didn't work

2. Another athlete was slightly upset he did not hit his numbers that he was hoping for. Yet this athlete do to other out of gym activities missed 3/6 upper body sessions. This was a great time to educate the athlete in why and how training can be affected.

Training middle school and high school athletes truly is my number one passion. However, a close second is training adults, especially the people who think if they cannot train like they use to in the past during the days they played sports that they should not train at all.
