February Q&A: Isometric Training, Performance Assessments, and the IFAST Internship

We’rrrreeeee back!

It’s the February edition of our Q&A podcast, and man do we have a bunch of topics to cover.

Performance assessments.

Isometric training and testing.

Why everyone and their sister is squatting with a heel wedge.

And why IFAST is evolving.

So without any further ado, let’s jump right in!

 

Isometrics are one part of a program. A powerful tool? Yes. But if they’re the only tool? That’s a problem. – Mike Robertson
