Christian Thibaudeau is a legend in strength and conditioning and joins me for a quick masterclass on how to train strength, plus his expertise on:

-How quickly do we lose strength if we don’t train it

-How much of our strength is our muscle

-How much of our strength is our nervous system’s ability to recruit our muscles better

-Why frequency matters most for strength development

-Why can’t we voluntarily recruit 100% of our capacity for strength

-How to train and maintain power and explosiveness as we age, and why it matters

-And much more
