The Best Of Training® Concept was originally developed for professional athletes by GM Trainings. The goal was to leverage the overall performance of athletes not only referring to athletics, but to all areas of life. Today, not only professional athletes use the Best Of Training® Concept, but also the two focus groups leaders and children / teenagers.
=> To exploit the current resources the best way possible
and
=> To unfold a person’s potential the best way possible
The principles and methods of the Best Of Training® Concept are the guidelines of GM Trainings.
The Best Of Training Concept was originally developed for professional athletes and leaders. For we were able to produce excellent results with our recipients – especially professional athletes -, we expanded the whole system to additional target groups and started to help them reach their goals as well.
In its essence, the Best Of Training concept is not only about professional sports at all. Pro athletes can use this concept, because their monthly income obviously depends on showing their individual performance publicly. Regular people’s skills may not be displayed in public on a daily basis. Nevertheless, making the best of any person’s individual resources can impact the personal outcomes dramatically. Therefore, the strategy and guidelines of this concept are critical for all kinds of success people want to achieve in their personal lives.
The Best Of Training Concept has already been used by professional sports organizations, such as 1st league hockey and football clubs, public institutions, such as public youth welfare, universities and educational academies.

The strategy and guidelines of the Concept BestOf Training built the foundation for all the projects which we have been entrusted to take care of.
