Episode notes
Warm Up Specifically For The Lift
- Warm up and cool down specific to the movements you will perform to protect joints and activate required muscles.
- Spend time with unloaded and lighter loads to prepare range of motion and core bracing before heavy sets.
Train With A Plan, Not Ego
- Design and follow a plan; do not treat every session like a max-effort day to avoid overreach and injury.
- Use periodization and deloads to manage volume and intensity across training cycles.
Adjust Programming To Your Readiness
- Tailor programming to your individual readiness and adjust based on daily feedback from your body.
- Assess pain or limitations and modify load, percentages, or exercise selection accordingly.
