The Cohort Experience: Simplified, Structured, and Smart for Your Budget
EPN Base Camp is a 7-month group coaching experience and your opportunity to master the real-life skills behind sustainable body composition changes, without the overwhelm of going it alone or the investment of our high-touch cohorts.
Inside Base Camp, you’ll walk through the entire EPN Method: maintenance, muscle-building, and fat-loss, with full context and real-time support, so you don’t just know what to do… you actually know how to do it for your body, your data, and your lifestyle.
You’ll be guided by EPN founders Laura Savino and Kate Brien, who will teach you to think like a coach, use your spreadsheet like a pro, and finally understand how your body works in a way that makes food freedom, muscle gain, and fat loss feel simple and strategic.
What You’ll Experience:
Each week, you’ll join Laura and Kate for a live Monday call at 11 AM Central (recordings available for replay) where we’ll teach one core concept connected to that month’s periodization phase.
You won’t just learn the EPN method; you’ll live it.
Over the course of our 7-month program, you’ll move through each phase like a pro, building the habits, data literacy, and self-trust that make long-term results inevitable. Think of this as your training ground for becoming your own best coach.
Prep Phase
Your Personal Data Decoder | Set Up for Strategic Success
Before Base Camp even begins, you’ll unlock your data superpower. In just 7 days, you’ll learn how to read, track, and interpret your metrics using our signature EPN spreadsheet, so you walk into December already thinking like a coach, not a confused client.
Phase I
Metabolic Home Base | Lock In Your Lifestyle + Maintenance Mastery
Say goodbye to food fear and macro math stress. This is where you build your baseline, discovering your true maintenance calories, stabilizing your intake, and locking in effortless consistency. We’ll show you how to use your spreadsheet to gain clarity, confidence, and full-body trust.
Phase II
Strategic Build | Fueling Muscle Without Losing Balance
This is where most of us tend to lose our bearings, but not you. You’ll learn how to gradually increase intake, support muscle growth, and experience more food freedom without losing your physique or your sanity. We’ll show you how to confidently find your upper range of maintenance and enter a build (if appropriate), without the usual fear or fluff.
Phase III
Data-Driven Fat Loss | Confident, Controlled, and Custom to You
No crash diets, no guessing games. You’ll learn how to intelligently set up and execute a fat-loss phase that’s sustainable, biofeedback-led, and personalized. You’ll walk away knowing exactly how to adjust, when to pivot, and how to end a cut without rebounding, a skill most people never master.
By the end of Base Camp, you’ll have experienced every major phase of our proven periodization system and built the confidence, clarity, and real-life results that only come from doing the work alongside experts.

Why Join Base Camp?
Because it’s time to stop winging it and start winning at the way you fuel, train, and transform your body.
EPN Base Camp delivers the full strategic framework of our proven method, the same one we use inside our high-touch cohorts, at a fraction of the cost.
You'll still learn directly from EPN founders Laura and Kate as they guide you through every phase of the periodization process… but this time, you’ll do it with more flexibility, more autonomy, and all the tools you need to think like a coach and move like a pro.
By the end of Base Camp, you’ll know how to:
Find and sustain your true maintenance intake without second-guessing your numbers
Confidently step into a build phase that supports muscle without sacrificing lifestyle
Execute a strategic fat-loss phase without burnout, confusion, or extremes
Maintain your results long-term with data, clarity, and self-trust
All while being part of a supportive, high-vibe community that keeps you accountable, educated, and empowered every single week.
This isn’t about learning more of the same information you’re constantly seeing online. It’s about finally putting the right information into action… and seeing what your body is truly capable of.
frequently asked questions:
-
Nope. And that’s the point. Base Camp is about teaching you how to coach yourself.
Instead of handing you numbers, we show you how to set and adjust your own targets using the EPN method. You’ll gain the why behind the numbers so you’re not dependent on us (or any coach) ever again.
While Laura and Kate won’t be reviewing individual spreadsheets, you’ll get plenty of support throughout the week:
Post your screenshots + questions in the community
Join our weekly live calls for feedback, breakdowns, and guidance
We’re not here to fish for you. We’re here to teach you how to fish for life.
-
Absolutely. Base Camp is nutrition-first, so your current training plan is welcome.
We do recommend trying out TPA (our training program) since it’s basically a free with your Base Camp discount. :) But if you’ve got something you love, keep rolling with it!
Just let Laura or Kate know what you’re doing so we can help you integrate it.
Who knows… our TPA warm-ups and activation sequences might be the missing piece to take your current training to the next level.
-

→ Built the confidence to coach yourselfFrom there, you’ve got 2 powerful options:
Join a higher-touch EPN cohort for personalized data reviews + deeper support
Level-up for a more specific goal in 1:1 coaching with Laura, Kate, Mickee, or Carli
