In this episode of the podcast, Gerry and Mike dive into the culture of the six-pack and how detrimental it is to young athletes. Gerry believes there is too much attention on the aesthetics, and in the episode he goes into detail on what athletes SHOULD be focused on to increase performance.

Gerry discusses basic variations of programming rotational strength, the force-velocity curve, anti-rotational strength/force output, determining weaknesses in movement, and much more! You do not want to miss this episode if you are an athlete or a parent of an athlete looking to increase core strength and performance!
