In this episode, Dan is joined by Giuseppe Rosaci to discuss principles around Isometric training and periodization for isometrics.

Giuseppe Rosaci is a researcher at the University of Bologna whose work focuses on isometric training, with particular emphasis on the differences between isometric muscle actions and the acute and chronic adaptations of muscle architecture and the muscle–tendon unit. His research explores how variables such as muscle length, contraction type, and intensity influence strength development, fatigue, and performance outcomes. In addition to applied strength science, Giuseppe has a strong interest in innovations within artistic gymnastics, where isometric demands play a central role in performance. He regularly collaborates with coaches, clinicians, and researchers to bridge theory and real-world application.
