Relative Strength: What it is, why we test it, and how to build it


Listen Later

Strength matters, you know this, I know this, hell, I bet your Aunt Edna from Altoona, Iowa knows this. But here’s the thing, lots of strength with lots of body weight isn’t the best thing for you. Have a look at the general health of powerlifters and strongman competitors. They ain’t too healthy. Relative strength, on the other hand, is powerful stuff. It’s foundational to health, performance, and longevity. 
In this episode of the Beyond Strength Show, Chris and Todd talk about… wait for it… relative strength!
