Guinea Pigs Needed!

Written on January 24, 2010 at 2:59 pm, by Eric Cressey

Okay, gang; here’s the scoop: I have a new project in the works.

In fact, the entire program is already written, and a few lifters have already taken it for a test-drive with excellent results.  However, I need to get my sample size up to confirm that I’m really onto something here – and that’s where you may be able to help.

I need some guinea pigs to put this program to the test!

Before I get 10,000 email applications, here are a few things that “qualify” you:

1.  You must be healthy – or at least very close to it!  Some aches and pain in the past aren’t a big deal, but we aren’t going to be taking on anyone who is currently dealing with any injuries.

2. You must be at least 18 years of age, with at least one year of resistance training experience.

3. You must have access to a reasonably well-equipped gym that is at least equivalent to a commercial gym set-up.  Those who train at home are welcome to apply only if they have access to a cable column at home.

4. You would ideally have purchased Assess & Correct already.

5. You need to be able to train for four uninterrupted months for a minimum of three times each week.

6. You must be willing to take before/after pictures plus some performance tests.

7. Both men and women are welcome to “apply.”

8 You must have $199 to devote to this, because it is going to be a ton of work on our end to give you tech support for four months!  That’s only about $50/month for full-on programming and tech support – which is markedly lower than my online consulting rates.

If you’re interested, please drop me an email at ec@ericcressey.com with your name, age, and a brief background on your training history.  I’ll only be accepting 12 guinea pigs for this project, and all decisions will be made by February 1.  Those who are selected will be notified by February 1.

You won’t receive notification unless you’re selected, so please don’t take it personally if I don’t reply to your email; I’m just trying to save myself some extra work!

Thanks!
