*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*

In this episode Gerry welcomes Zach Dechant back on the show! After an amazing first episode last year, Zach returns to talk everything regarding programming.

To start, Gerry and Zach talk about some benefits of lower sprint volume for athletes and preserving the nervous system throughout a training week, while also maintaining a balance of still providing stimulus.

From there, the conversation turns to individualization and changing loading vs. variations, programming for youth athletes and the real meaning of sport specificity.

For athletes and coaches alike, this is a must listen to understand the intricacies of program development to best serve athletic development.
