*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*

In this episode, Gerry starts things off as usual with a recap of last week's episode on building a social media brand and discusses some of the key points from the episode. Then, he gets into his favorite tweets from the past week as well as answering one of YOUR questions.

From there, the conversation shifts to the show topic, "sport specific training." Gerry talks about his preference for the terms transferability over specificity and the pitfalls of looking at the surface of a sport movement and trying to replicate it in training.

Then, everything you need to know about transferability is addressed including watching sport, learning about it and aiming to find all the aspects that go into a movement. This includes planes of motion, speed of movement, energy systems and more.

If you want to better understand the balance and relationship between training and sport, this episode is for you!

All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!
