He emphasizes the importance of considering all aspects of training within the same plan, from maximal force output to endurance.
Bennett believes in using strength training as a tool to drive adaptations, such as increased neural drive and cross-sectional area of type 2 fibers.
He advocates for block periodization, focusing on one or two specific adaptations at a time, and using complex training or contrast training to maintain muscle mass while developing explosive strength.
