I had a chance to speak with a great human being, Andy McCloy, about some of his training challenges and issues associated with his new hips (we have this in common). We touched on a lot of topics in a 30-minute conversation. Watch the video or listen to the podcast.
Topics of Conversation:
- My benefits from drinking from The Fountain of Youth (what?!)
- The secondary consequences of hard, intense training
- Intrathoracic, intraabdominal, and intramuscular pressure
- Muscle hypertrophy and gym strength
- Genetic influences on adaptation and muscle hypertrophy
- Self-assessment of movement and adaptability in the gym
- The difference between a deadlift and the squat for compression and expansion
- How heavy lifting creates a compressive, concentric strategy
- The limitations of breathing exercises for big, strong humans
- Are leg extensions okay for muscle hypertrophy?
- A mature mindset for training
- The importance of KPI’s (key performance indicators) for self-assessment

You have to earn your way into the 16%. To do so, we must think differently. Fitness training is young and indecisive. Rehab is stagnating. Strength & Conditioning is being stifled by tradition and confusion. It's time to do the work necessary to improve or join the average.
