The Resilient Training Lab Podcast

Eric Lagoy, RTL coach and head of programming, joins us again to continue our conversation about back pain. Eric is an OCS board certified physical therapist who specializes in treating barbell athletes and field athletes. Eric is part of Clinical Athlete and is also an adjunct professor at Quinnipiac University. Eric also has vast experience in the weight room with an undergraduate degree in Strength and Conditioning and as a competitive powerlifter.

In episode 5, Eric talks about he manages his clients with low back pain, especially in regard to lifters. His approach focuses more on movement rather than passive modalities. Eric talks about he manipulates training variables in order to keep lifters lifting and prevent them from detraining as they manage low back pain symptoms. Nocebo and placebo are also covered in this discussion along with how healthcare providers and coaches should help to empower their clients and promote self-efficacy rather than having clients and patients depend on them for everything.

In episode 4, Coach Paul and Coach Ryan are joined by guest, Carlos Reyes. Carlos is an elite powerlifter, former pro-Strongman, and Renaissance Periodization sponsored athlete. Carlos has totaled 2050 lbs in sleeves at the 242 lb weight class while continuing to excel in his career as a firefighter. 

In this episode, Carlos talks about how he got started with strength training and how he got to where he is today. He is someone who has a growth mindset and truly enjoys the process of reaching his goals. Carlos believes a strong mindset is the key to success and we dive deep into that topic. In this episode we discuss: 

•  Establishing a sustainable, holistic mindset towards training, competition and life
• What are we really in control of as athletes? And what should we not concern ourselves with?
• Exploiting the training, nutritional, recovery, and conditioning variables that give maximum return on investment
• What stress, pain, and lifestyle management modalities maximize recovery 
• The reality of hitting multi month and multi year plateaus and how to manage them
• Using positive self speech when referencing our own training
• Which mental approaches yield the best results on meet day, and how to control our competitive energy through finding our individualized “flow state”
• Technique - when should we fix one variable at a time versus completely overhauling it? When does technique not really matter?
• What keeps athletes motivated and consistent for the long haul
• How to fluidly shift perspectives to achieve ideal competitive outcomes
• What beginners, intermediates, and advanced lifters get wrong when establishing their priorities as athletes 
• Plus some background on Carlos Reyes as an athlete and first responder, and how those experiences have shaped his training, nutritional and conditioning philosophies.
