TRAIN WITH A PLAN.
LEARN WHY IT WORKS.
Get monthly client-ready workouts from Nick, see the decisions behind them, and learn how to adapt the plan to the real person in front of you.
A PROGRAM YOU CAN USE. A SYSTEM YOU CAN LEARN.
Every month starts with a full month of workouts. Nick walks through how the program is built, so you can use it as written when it fits and make informed changes when it doesn’t.
THE MONTHLY
PLAYBOOK

A COMMUNITY WITH NICK IN IT
Bring your programming questions and learn from the situations other trainers are working through.

A PROGRAM IS ONLY THE STARTING POINT.
Real clients rarely follow the plan exactly. They miss workouts. Their schedule changes. An exercise bothers their knee. The gym does not have the equipment you expected.
That is where program design becomes coaching. PDU helps you understand the principles behind the plan so you can make smart adjustments without losing the purpose of the workout.
WHAT PDU MEMBERS ARE SAYING.
Trainers join to learn directly from Nick, sharpen their programming, and put the ideas to work with their own clients.
“I have followed you for nearly my whole career, and I’m super pumped to be here and learn a little more in-depth from one of the greats in the industry. Thanks, Nick Tumminello!”
“I’ve been here for just over a month now, and I’ve been loving every single resource Nick shares. It’s made me want to keep learning and becoming a better trainer.”
“Loving the courses so far! I’m learning a lot and I’m so glad that I signed up for Program Design University. In fact, I’m switching all my clients to the SPE model next month.”
QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU JOIN.
Is this only for experienced trainers?
No. There is a beginner program and foundational material in the resource vault. The monthly workouts and discussions are especially useful once you are programming for clients and want to sharpen your decisions.
Do I need to use Nick’s programs exactly as written?
No. You can use a program when it fits, study its structure, and adapt it using the exercise options and lessons in the group.
Can I ask Nick about a specific client situation?
Yes. Members post coaching and programming questions in the private community. Give enough context to help Nick offer useful feedback; response times can vary.
What happens after the free trial?
The membership is $29 per month after the 7-day trial, with no long-term commitment. Check Skool’s checkout for the current terms before enrolling.
