Holistic Science is a field of study that is rooted in examining complex systems to develop a global understanding, rather than focusing on isolated components. Holistic science can be applied to a number of fields including health, wellbeing, ecology, business, economics, psychology, physics, and more. It is a "macro" approach that studies the full spectrum of components that interplay to create cause & effect.

A Holistic Science training approach recognises individuality and considers our body’s entire physiology working as a fully integrated complex system, with all components working in unison to create a training outcome.

Instead of isolating a single system or focusing on a particular training technique, we consider the final training outcome as a result of all contributing body systems and adaptations over time. Taken individually, each component, system, or training approach can be seen as an independent contributor or variable. When each of these variables are combined into a full equation - based on our individuality and interactions with our internal and external environments - they shape our outcome.

We call it the « final equation ». The outcome would be difficult to calculate precisely as it considers an immense and unpredictable number of variables and individualities in our physiology.

The BBS Training Method™️ is based on a Holistic Science perspective that allows us to explore and develop an awareness of the many individual variables that create the complex system of our body in training. Rather than being hindered by individual variables, we learn to consider their impact on the overall outcome. This allows us to approach training from a vantage point that focuses on the outcome of the final equation.

Training using a holistic science approach means you consider a broader range of training methods and styles. You will be viewing your physical performance, aesthetics, nutrition and mental wellbeing using a variety of different approaches.

Think of it like a "spice mix": rather than training with one of a few focuses in mind; a holistic approach adds a whole variety of flavours by incorporating a range of functional training methods to develop strength, endurance, cardio, mobility, stability, physical optimisation, body composition, mental wellbeing and skill. It considers integrating a healthy approach to nutrition that is specific to YOUR body, relying on natural resources as opposed to synthetic supplements.

The concept of holistic fitness goes beyond the usual targets of cardio and strength training. It considers the entire body as a "whole" and approaches fitness by also considering your internal and external environment to optimise your goals: body composition, skill development, aesthetics, athletic performance, and overall wellbeing.

BBS Training Method™️ is a training approach rather than a format, which can be used across multi-sports and any physical development activity. It's focused on the sports and fitness industry but translates into all fields of physical skill development.

BBS stands for BODY BEFORE SKILL, where we learn to study the body in training, and apply it to a variety of different skills and outcomes.

Rather than delving into empirical sports science data, the BBS Training Method considers many principles that interact together cross-sectionally to look at the big picture of the whole person’s wellbeing as a pathway to achieve high performance in their chosen activity.

We always consider the individual and the environment in which they are training (internal & external factors). Our method tackles concepts and ideologies of interconnected sports and wellness, attempting to balance pushing athletic abilities while keeping enjoyment, participation, physical and mental health at the forefront of our methodology.

The vision of our academy is to teach more coaches to use the BBS Training Method in their existing practice. The method teaches coaches and instructors to set a strong foundation for developing more resilient, functional humans who love to move! Through improved body awareness, a holistic approach to training, and an open-minded philosophy, we learn to find our passion, develop our skills, and connect with our peers.
