Periodization doesn't have to be complicated. In this episode of Metabolic Mastery, Dr. Marc Humbert and Dr. Cameron Garber break down the essentials of periodization, how to structure your training across the seasons of life and year without getting lost in the jargon. They explore how to zoom out for long-term health goals (like still being active at 90) and zoom in to align your workouts with the activities you love.
You'll learn:
-
How to use the "seasons of life" to make fitness realistic and sustainable.
-
Why balancing training and recovery is the key to long-term progress.
-
The role of VO₂ and RMR testing in tailoring your training cycles.
-
How to shift strength, cardio, plyometric, and skill work across the year.
-
Why 80/20 training is critical for avoiding injury and burnout.
-
How to adapt your plan to fit real-life stressors, time, and goals.
Whether you're a weekend warrior, a competitive athlete, or someone who simply wants to age well, this episode will help you simplify your approach and stay consistent for decades to come.
