Welcome back to the Adaptable Athlete Podcast!

 In this episode, we dive into another edition of the 6 Minutes of Skill series — where Coach Jav breaks down a key skill acquisition concept in under 6 minutes (or close enough).

This time, we’re tackling a big one:

How does the weight room fit within an ecological approach?

The weight room and ecological dynamics can often feel like they're pulling in different directions. But in this quick-hit episode, Coach Jav unpacks:
 ✅ Why the weight room isn’t the enemy
 ✅ How to create meaningful links between strength work and skill
 ✅ How variability can be a secret weapon in the weight room
 ✅ Why being weight room strong doesn’t necessarily mean being skillful
