NASM Master Trainers Prentiss Rhodes, Wendy Batts, and Marty Miller talk about the Power Phase of the OPT Model. They address: - Should everyone do Phase 5? Why isn’t this optional? - Do you have to perform 1-5 reps in the strength portion? - What are some alternatives to using a wall or MB? I don’t have a wall in my gym and it seems that you need to have this to perform the explosive exercises - And much more!
