It's just Me, Myself & I - No Guest, No Wi-Fi, No Problem. I go H.A.M on your Training Questions


Listen Later

This week's Podcast is something a little different due to not having a guest (or WiFi) this week so I decided to go H.A.M on your questions and even let you know a little bit more about Myself as it was pointed out to me that after 60+ episodes I've never actually discussed my journey.

In this week's episode I discuss:
- My journey through the fitness industry so far. Where I started, how I initially failed at starting my own business due to not having a clear direction and solid training principles, leaving the industry and why I returned and the 3 most influential Coaches on my journey so far.
- Why your goals, abilities and limitations can help or hinder you when it comes to exercise selection and putting yourself in the best position to be successful.
- What the benefits are of utilising full Range of Motion for lifts. What I classify full R.O.M as and why it's individual to each and every person. Why people use reduced range of motion variations such as Rack Pulls, Box Squats and Floor Presses.
- How to approach unilateral work to addresses imbalances.
- Is doing only compound movements adequate for a weekly workout routine?
- What's more important for long-term strength, Progressive Overload or Structural Balance?
- How I facilitate Client's goal setting to ensure they're consistently successful.
- How to avoid "Over-Training" & the best way to return to exercise after being sick.
I finish on the BIG question of "can you make progress forever?"
