On this episode Strength and Conditioning Coach Jim Laird shares his take on:

1.  Why turning your training down a notch can speed your rate of improvement.

2.  How the Russian Wrestling Team influenced his thoughts on rolling *hint* they prioritize skill development over intensity.

3.  Why a Strength and Conditioning Coach would rather his BJJ athletes focus on efficiency and only use strength in reserve.

4.  Why every training protocol must be supportive of the trainee's needs and goals, and every protocol will be different based on an individual's needs.

5.  Why we must recover as hard as we train.  We must "work in" in order to be able to work out.

6.  Why walking in nature can boost our recovery from training.

7.  How to "shut off" after evening training for those of us who have a hard time going to sleep after class.
