What is Athlete Training Protocol?
Athlete Training Protocol is a well rounded programming for athletes who want to get better at sport of fitness.
ATP is not just a training template – it encourages athletes to take into consideration all the aspects that affects their performance. To these belong (among others) sufficient amount of sleep, rating the rest and recovery to meet the needs of training, eating to support the performance, reducing unnecessary stress and most importantly being active in everyday life.
We rely on these six key point for success:
- Optimal load – Not too little, not too much. The amount of training is not constant, it needs to be planned around your overall load or other way around.
- Consistency – regular and well-thought training enables improvement. ATP follows systematic week-month-year cycles.
- Quality – Not quantity: details determine the whole. How you do anything is how you do everything.
- Variability – To reach the optimal neurological adaptation (=development) demands varying training
- Fun – If it feels good, you’re more likely to spend your time on it.
- Mind – Open and positive attitude towards getting better helps you to reach your goals.

Lasse Rantala
Founder and Head Coach of ATP
I love all sports. My coaching philosophy approaches training and athletic development as a holistic entity. In the 24 hours we have every day, time spent with actual training is just a slight part. What happens outside the gym is equally important and choices we daily make should also support our goals in fitness.
I am a movement guy. The better athlete moves, the better they succeed. ATP will make athletes move efficiently by focusing on the mobility and movement itself.
I coach daily at my gyms. I´ve been coaching athletes from various sports, military and police personnel, firemen, PE teachers but most of my clients are people who want to improve their fitness.
My physiotherapeutic background helps me to understand the movement and what it takes to move well. I want to challenge myself everyday, learn new things and study the latest resources. We are all individual snowflakes and it has to be taken into consideration when executing physical training. This can be seen in ATP when we occasionally program workouts to be done “by the feel”. You reflect your daily conditioning and tailor the workout by load, reps and movements to meet your energy levels.

One could say that I’ve been a part of ATP since the very beginning. I had a pretty good engine already back then, and fast forward, I’ve pretty much sticked with two of the programmings. When it comes to lifting, there’s always room for improvement, and for that Power&Speed works well. Now that I’ve competed, Strength&Conditioning has really worked for prepping while developing other areas at the same time.”
