In this Rapid Fire Q&A episode of Between 2 Racks, the KILO Crew answers your programming and coaching questions with real world context, not theory for theory’s sake.

We break down where the single-leg squat actually fits in a system, and why it is not interchangeable with split squats and lunges. From there, we dig into meso and macro adjustments when life happens, including how to handle missed sessions from sickness, small injuries, travel, and schedule chaos without turning your plan into a constant restart.

You’ll also hear our take on shoulder mobility limitations for back squatting, how we think about body composition planning across a full year without swinging between extremes, and what changes when you program for different sport demands and different athlete builds.

We wrap with chin up progression troubleshooting and a practical workflow conversation for coaches managing high weekly session volume while still delivering detailed, individualized programming.

If you want clearer programming decisions, better progression choices, and a more sustainable coaching process, this one is for you.
