Ep 65: Conjugate Periodisation For The Modern Athlete - From Soviet Science to Hybrid Performance
Description
In this episode of The Art of Performance Podcast, we go deep on Conjugate Periodisation!
One of the most bastardised systems in the fitness industry. Born in Soviet sport science and weaponised by Westside Barbell, the conjugate method trains multiple performance qualities simultaneously...
Strength, Speed, Hypertrophy and Power.
We break down:
-
What conjugate really is (beyond bands and box squats)
-
The Max Effort, Dynamic Effort and Repetition Methods
-
Why movement rotation and concurrent traits are its superpower
-
Who it works for (and who it doesn’t)
-
How to apply it to hybrid athletes, tactical professionals and real world clients
Whether you're coaching high performance athletes or programming for yourself, this episode rewrites what you thought you knew about conjugate training.
