The idea to do an YPSI Online Coaching Program has been around for years. As an obvious move to spread a system that works very well. And to make our methods more accessible to potential clients from all over the planet. There have always been three major drawbacks to this though.
1. Quality control of training – A rep is not a rep. An photo or video can barely teach and correct exercises, especially not the more advanced ones.
2. Communication – Which is critical to the success of online coaching. Communication in person is 90% non-verbal. Via email or a chat its 100% written. With much context.
3. Individualization of Online Coaching – Communication is a challenge as it needs the same level and volume of time invested, if not even more compared to running through a program in person.
These three factors have always held us back from going "online" in greater volume. We do offer personal online coaching with Wolfgang. It is limited to personal trainers and coaches that have attended YPSI seminars, though, to minimize the challenges mentioned above.
In October of 2017 we had reached a critical point. After years of being able to maintain the waiting time for an initial assessment to 6 to 12 weeks we had reached a 6 months wait for the first time with over 45 new clients having scheduled initial assessment for our Before'n'After Program within those 6 months already maxing out our capacity and leading to this extended wait.
Every challenge has its solution.
One idea that Wolfgang had for a while is to create a YPSI Elementary School. Basically a system of training, nutrition & lifestyle optimization for everyone to run through independent of their individual and specific goals. Same as an elementary school. Which teaches the same to everyone. If you want to become a kindergarten teacher, a painter or a medical doctor, elementary school moves everyone through the same steps. Its then during middle school, high school and later university were methods and systems specialized on the individual's specific goals.

This idea of an elementary school and the standardized yet still advanced initial recommendations combined for the current demand in the service that we provide at the YPSI has led to the development of the YPSI Online Coaching Program.
