Robert Dos Remedios - UK Seminar

I'm really pleased to be able to announce that Coach Robert Dos Remedios will be holding a 2 day seminar in April 2009. The seminar will be hosted by Smart Fitness and EXF will be providing vital support throughout the event. This will be the first time Coach Dos has presented in the UK and I know it is going to be a fantastic seminar. If you want to know a bit more about Coach Dos, read on.

Coach Robert dos Remedios has been involved in strength and conditioning for over 19 years. After completing his competitive football career at the University of California, Berkeley in 1988, he began training athletes on a full-time basis. "Coach Dos" has a masters degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Biomechanics from California State University, Northridge and has been a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) with the NSCA since 1990.

Coach Dos is a sought after speaker on a variety of conditioning topics such as Olympic Weightlifting applications, Sport-speed development, Explosive training, and CHAOSTM Speed Training which he developed with Jim Liston. Coach Dos serves as Director of Speed, Strength & Conditioning @ College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita, CA, a position he has held since 1999.

Coach Dos is also the 2006 recipeint of the National Strength and Conditioning's prestigious Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Professional of the year for 2006. This award is given to the top collegiate strength coach in the country (as voted on by his peers). In addition to contributing to Men's Health on a regular basis, Coach Dos' first book Men's Health Power Training (Rodale Books) will be released in July 2007.

Coach Dos is an 'in the trenches' kind of guy and everything he will talk about in April will have been tried and tested on the gym floor. Keep an eye on the blog for updates in January. If you want more information you can send an e-mail to nick@smartfitness.org.uk
