I know some people frown on people advertising their products, but surely its ok to get excited when you hear about them off the forums . Heres the summary I just got emailed to me:
Quote:
DVD #1: Introduction
Why learn functional anatomy?
What resources do the BEST use to improve their skills?
What resources will absolutely make you regress as a trainer, coach or athlete, and how do you avoid them?
How will improved posture not only keep you healthy, but also improve your performance?
How can you use the Law of Repetitive Motion to rapidly elicit changes in posture?
DVD #2: Lower Body, Core and Upper Body Functional Anatomy
Are the hip flexors tight? If so, which one(s)? We'll show you specific tests to figure out exactly which areas are short or stiff
Why are well functioning glutes an absolute necessity if optimal performance is your goal? How can they help us to avoid hamstring pulls, groin strains, and lower back pain!
How is it that we've misunderstood the role of various core muscles for so long - and how can we modify our training to "undo" the damage that's been done?
How can the pectoralis major and subscapularis be both antagonists and synergists, and what are the implications on health and performance?
Have we been missing the boat on how we view rhomboids?
Why doesn't anyone think about pectoralis minor?
DVD #3: Static Assessments
Why perform a static assessment?
What can we suspect with an elevated shoulder girdle?
How does being right or left-handed affect one's posture?
Watch TWO LIVE ASSESSMENTS to see how posture directly influences performance and injury!
DVD #4: Dynamic Assessments
Why use a dynamic assessment?
What does Kibler's Three-Position Scapular Screen tell us?
How many different things can a simple lunge tell us about an individual's inefficiencies?
How does one get into the "always assessing" mindset?
In all, learn over 20 different tests to determine how the core, upper, and lower extremities are functioning, both in isolation and integration - along with specific recommendations to fix the flaws!
DVD #5: The Art of Hardcore Corrective Training
What is the Law of Repetitive Motion?
What's the difference between an inefficiency and a pathology?
How are we "missing the boat" with current corrective training practices?
What exercises are absolutely contraindicated?
How do we maintain a training effect while correcting inefficiencies?
Perform miscellaneous activation and control drills.
Implement and perform the CORE STABILIZATION EXERCISES your body needs for optimal performance and health.
Discover not only the most common errors and compensation patterns, but also what they signify, and how to fix them. This is an absolute must for any up-and-coming coach and anyone who is unsure of how to perform squats, deadlifts, bench presses, or any of 30 other exercises!
DVD #8: Neanderthal No More Revisited: What We'd Do Differently
Almost three years ago, we co-authored a five-part article series called "Neanderthal No More." This series outlined common postural flaws and offered corrective exercise suggestions. While people made tremendous progress with this program, we'd be lying nowadays if we said that we wouldn't have done anything differently if we were to write that series of articles over today. On this DVD, we mercilessly rip on our own program - with the help of those in attendance - based largely on the principles we discussed over the course of the two-day seminar. It's a perfect example of how learning more about functional anatomy can dramatically change what we're doing - and even make a good program into a great program
Needless to say, this DVD series is going to change the way you look at training! Whether you're an up-and-coming strength coach, personal trainer, or just someone who wants to better understand training and make sure you're lifting correctly, this DVD series will help get you there faster and more efficiently.
To order your copy TODAY, or to find out more about this amazing product, please follow the link below:
If money weren't a problem, I'd own this, MM, and I/O. Unfortunately I don't have $300+ to spend.

As if the rest wasn't enough, the 30% off MM completely sold me on this. I soo wish I had a credit card and could actually buy it.
Quick, someone lend me a credit card!!!

i want to get this...but with buying books and traveling and weddings to go to...really makes it hard to get. i'll figure out a way to get some money by summers end
I will buy it in a snap if the discounts for MM were converted into actual discounts for BTEA. :p I know for one thing for sure was that MM and I/O were of very high quality in both content and production and I personally benefitted greatly.
If not for the mouthwatering contents in the BTEA, I'd be even more apprehensive when it comes to buying DVDs made from the filming of a live seminars because I got burnt many times. (I'm not refering to this new release of BTEA) Many things can go wrong in a live event and because the presenter's focus is on the audience rather than the camera, I have experienced and been frustrated by but not limited to some of the following:
i.) Sound and /or video quality was real poor when it's put into a DVD or I could not see the powerpoints slides, charts or any other visual aids.
ii) Static angle or a single camera attempting to capture the entire event from a corner, leading to poor coverage of exercise demonstration.
iii.)The worst I know is of a seminar DVD where almost half of the time, the presenter/ screen was blocked by the participants.
iv) Poor crowd control and presenters that are constantly interrupted by questions during the presentation rather than in the Q&A, which brings me to my next point...
V.)Participants who are like totally lost in their own little world especially during the practical sessions.
vi.)Lack of proper lighting controls and overall poor planning in sequence and timing. Alrite rant over. I know it is difficult to balance the act but I would really like to see a DVD produced from a seminar that is professional and with clear pictures and voice. (NOTE: THESE COMMENTS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BTEA DVD SERIES WHICH I HAVE NOT WATCHED AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN TO MEAN ANYTHING OTHER THAN MY OWN SIMPLE RECOLLECTION OF PAST EXPERIENCES WATCHING SEMINAR DVDS)
Can someone comment on the quality of the BTEA DVDs with regards to the production quality. I'm very sure like Jimmy said, being there physically in the actual event was worth every penny.
Yeah, our distributor got some of the SKU numbers screwed up in the beginning, so some people will get both even though they only ordered the BTEA DVD Series
If they don't have M2 - GREAT! If they do, I just ask them to give it to someone who can use it. No sense in mailing it back.
Stay strong

A few weeks ago my dog ate my copy of magnificent mobility, well my package arrives, and theres a copy of MM in there as well .
BTEA is one of my greatest investments in a long time!
I’m a trainer and I take my job seriously. My knowledge in the last year has skyrocketed thanks to guys like Mike R. EC, Bill H and many more. Once I saw this product I knew that it’s a must! I’m still going through the DVD’s and trying to learn everything as much as I can. Price is not an issue for me because I know that this is something I will enjoy watching, learning from and it’ll not only enhance my knowledge as a trainer but it’ll also enhance my business. I’m in dept, I’ve got bills to pay just like everyone else, but I just can not put a price on something like this. Seriously. Maybe I’m just a big geek when it comes to this? Mmmm……If I rather spend my Saturday nights watching BTEA dvd’s and learning functional anatomy rather than going out to a club makes me a geek, than I am.
I think he's got two screen names. the same avatar is for a guy that said he was coming to the summit.
Coach Kedik he is I, and I am him, and yes I am the guy that is planning on flying down to the summit. Sorry for the two accounts, I've decided to use my full name as I have been on other forums so Coach Kedik is no longer in use.
Gobba, what do you have against me? I love the products and I have been following Mikes and Eric’s work for quite some time now. I love what they do and the information they provide for us. I'm entitled to my opinion
I don't have anything against you. Would you not find it odd that the only place a person ever posted on a popular\active was a glowing review of a product? Turns out that you HAVE posted other places and it's just an oddity of having two accounts. No harm, no offense, no biggie.

K cool l've emailed JP and requested for him to get rid of my Coach Kedik account.
I was just at the BTEA website and was thiiiiiiiiiis close to pulling out my credit card. Training resources are the #1 reason I even have a balance on that puppy but damn this set has me excited. I also need to get a pair of hockey skates though, to learn to skate...a coach has to know his sports.
I have watched it. It is extremely content rich, which is the primary reason for my buying it. I love buying products by these guys because I am the only trainer in the area who even knows about them, and it puts me right up at the top of the foodchain in this area.
If I have any criticism at all of the DVD it is that the recording quality is a little grainy. Not that I watch these for the special effects though. It is a minor issue. I would have liked to have seen a pop-up screen with what was showing on their ppt because the slides were a little small, and I couldn't read some of the small text on the anatomy.
The most important thing though is what they are talking about, and it is phenomenal. Both of those guys are friggin' brilliant! I highly recommend it. It should be a college course. The trainers coming fresh out of college would be so much further along if they used this kind of stuff as a part of their curriculum.
