BridgeAthletic Season 1 Episode 3

This episode is from a live recording of UNRACKED, having aired on July 29, 2025.

Luka Hocevar, founder of Vigor Ground gyms in Seattle and Slovenia, joins Cooper Napoli to unpack program design for high-performance training.

In this episode, he breaks down:

  • How to build training systems that drive long-term athlete development
  • Where progression models and recovery considerations fit into elite programming
  • The adjustments he makes when scaling systems across different client populations
  • How to balance individualization with scalability without compromising results

Luka brings a high-performance lens to the practical realities of designing programs that work at every level, from everyday athletes to pros in the NBA, NFL, and UFC.

This is program design from someone who's refined it across 12,000+ clients and elite environments.
