You've heard it before "every day is glute day"...

Great catchphrase but what type of glute strength training are you talking about? We KNOW that performing artists need strong glutes and stable hips, but there are actually a lot of different types of strength and stability. The more specific we can get with our glute strength training, the more likely we are to see results in our art.

People talk all the time about the "quest for the most balanced training program". Spoiler alert, it doesn't exist! Your program should be targeted towards your goals, and that may mean pouring less energy into certain things, and more into others.

Listen to this episode to get a backstage look at my thought process for creating crosstraining programs for different types of athletic artists with different types of goals.

At the end of this episode, you'll leave with a clearer understanding of "what the fuck should I care about, and what can I leave" when it comes to creating a program.
