Today's special guest Frank Taeger calls himself a "crazy guy", and this is exactly what we like about him :-) He is the most evidence-based german athletic trainer we know, book author on resistance and athletic training
and nutrition, co-founder of the German Strength and Conditioning Academy and Martial Arts silver medallist.
We talk with Frank about :
- where gear and collecting data makes sense and where not
- surviving 4 training sessions per day among the Shaolin
- having clients sing the national anthem while taking an ice bath at night
- how conservative structures in german elite team sports inhibit modern performance monitoring
- how to (better not) replicate the original Tabata protocol with 170% VO2Max and monitor it on your tracker, if you are still alive. www.taegerfitness.de
