Episode notes
Training Optimal vs. Hard
- Training optimally doesn't mean sacrificing intensity; it's about long-term sustainability in lifting.
- Consider the entire lifting career, not just short-term gains, balancing hard training with proper biomechanics.
Foot Pressure and Hip Hinging
- Maintain full foot contact and pressure for proper hip hinging.
- This ensures optimal range of motion and reduces lower back strain.
Pronation vs. Supination
- Pronation and supination are essential foot movements, and full foot contact is key for both.
- A balanced foot allows for proper force production and reduces the risk of injuries.
