If you are going to talk about strength eventually you need to talk about drugs. We know they exist in sport, on Instagram and just about everywhere in between. I’m not some diehard zealot when it comes to PED’s but I also hate to see what I consider cheating. In this short segment Ash and Andy discuss the morality of drugs in strength..

For pretty much all sports speed is key. So why then would we ever dial thing back or slow things down? If force is a function of mass and acceleration wouldn’t slower concentric and eccentric movements hinder rather than help? On todays #coachescorner Ash and Andy discuss when you would implement tempo training into your own programs. Why you might do so and when may be inappropriate.

Though frustrating, It’s understandable that from time athletes get hurt. Whether it’s and acute injury, a little niggle or something that has been brewing for a while. What is important is that we take the necessary steps to plan around the issue. Are we modifying the training plan accordingly to maximise progress during a somewhat tumultuous time?

Look. Most of the time I have no idea what I’m doing.. i just fly by the seat of my pants. But I do expect a lot better from large organisations that are meant to be taking care of the sports we love.

On today’s episode of Coaches Corner or Nerd Talk (still haven’t decided) Andy & Ash discuss volume calculations. Everyone know the basic functions of 3 sets of 10 for hypertrophy, 3 sets of 5 for strength or 3 sets of 3 for power, but how many sets should you train over a week? How many over a month what about a year? The key is recording data.. and off course using it 😅 Want to help us keep making these podcasts? Making this weekly podcast is fun but it does cost money!

Starting in the sport of weightlifting can be an intimidating prospect, especially as we arrive at the sport at older ages. How you begin training should be dictated by your previous training history and your movement literacy. If you have a high degree of strength (powerlifting) but need to work on the basic positions you need to attack that. High frequency is your friend. On the other side if you come from a crossfit or gymnastics background you may have had experiences with a greater variety of movements. The basic positions involved in weightlifting may not be as challenging for you. Your approach should be more qualitative. Disagree with Ash or Andy? Post your rebuttals below..
