235: Balancing consistency and novelty in your training routine


Listen Later

Listener question: I know consistency is important for strength, but I also like to work on new goals and do your different programs. How much novelty can I add to my routine, but still be building strength?

In this episode Kathryn and Chris talk about the balance of sticking it out, clarifying your goals, and keeping things novel and fresh.

They consider linear programming vs. periodization and why it can be ok to work on one goal for a few months before shifting to another.

A few tips are to figure out what the foundation of your practice is, keep that consistent, but have fun with other classes/programs on other days.
