Episode 2: Scott Stevenson- Becoming an evidence based coach

In this episode of J3 University, Luke and I are joined by Dr. Scott Stevenson to understand how to become an evidence based coach. We dive into what the term “evidence based” actually means and how it can be misapplied in the physique world. Also Scott has some great takeaways for becoming a critical thinker and filtering good and bad information to make us operate at a higher level.

Dr. Scott, has a PhD in Applied Exercise Physiology, is a published peer-reviewed scientific author, a successful bodybuilder, coach, and writer. He has been lifting for over 30 years where he has gained invaluable experience in both training and in life.

Episode 1: Setting up Post Contest Training

 

John and Luke dive into follower questions on setting up training in the post contest period. The post contest period is a state of high recovery needs, but also setting a program to improve the physique based on judge’s feedback. How do we take that feedback and transition into the offseason periods?

 

00:07:40- Do you typically reduce volume and/or cardio following, or does it depend on individual? 

 

00:19:35- Does training focus rely more on pushing strength with lower volume or moderate weight higher volume and is exercise selection any different than normal? 

 

00:29:09- Is progress being made with straight sets/when do you begin reintroducing intensity techniques? Are sets added first?

 

00:41:11- Upper Body needs to catch up relative to legs, how to approach offseason with this goal?
