Are your athletes truly maximizing their lifts? What if a simple adjustment could enhance their performance on the platform? In this episode, we dive into the effects of post-activation potentiation on weightlifting performance and the nuances of individual responses. Could a 120% clean pull be the key or the wrong choice for your lifters? Discover the science behind these performance techniques and how to implement them effectively in your lifters.
Shyam Chavda is the Programme Lead for the MSc in Strength & Conditioning (Distance Education) at Middlesex University and the Lead Performance Scientist at British Weightlifting. He specializes in optimizing athletic performance through innovative training methods and robust scientific research.
Enjoy!
