Philosophical Weightlifting Podcast

If you do the same style of training, but get coached by two very different people then what's the result? In this episode of the podcast, we dig into the concept of psychological fatigue and explore what it means from both a coach's and an athlete's perspective. Is it just a reduction in motivation to train? How can it be augmented to optimize performance? Does training and coaching style have a meaningful influence?Listen and find out.Subscribe to my Patreon to support the show!!!Philosophical Weightlifting | Creating Weightlifting podcasts and sharing knowledge.Buy our book:https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopusa/weightlifters-guide-to-the-snatch/Follow me and get coaching!https://www.instagram.com/josh_philwl/Weightlifting House:https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/ code PHILWL for 10% offOnyx:https://www.onyxstraps.com/ with code PHILWL for 10% offhttps://www.instagram.com/onyx_straps/Earth Fed Muscle:https://www.earthfedmuscle.com/ with code PHILWL for 10% offCheck out the AI:https://weightlifting.ai/
