Monitoring vs. Testing

“MEASURE WHAT IS MEASURABLE AND MAKE MEASURABLE WHAT IS NOT”. With these words, Galileo Galilei stated one of the most important concepts in science.  Without a system of measure, it is impossible to quantify any phenomenon and make it comparable with others as well as with the changes of the same phenomenon during time. This […]

THE STRENGTH OF MOBILITY

“My squat sucks! I can’t go as deep as I would like to because my hips hurt and my ankles are locked”; “I have a loose lumbar zone so I cannot squat deeper!”; “I don’t do Over Head Squats because my shoulders don’t lock out”. The problem with these people is that they all can’t […]

The Basics: What is a 1 RM?

“How much can you lift?” “How much can you bench?”; “Who’s the strongest in the gym?”; “This guy is really big, he has to be strong for sure!”…. These are just a few of the most quoted sentences that any gym goer hears a thousand times. If you have some knowledge in strength and conditioning, […]

What is Progress in Training?

Progress in training can have many different meanings. For the lovers of iron, the best symptom of progression corresponds to a new personal record in squat or bench. But the weight you can load on the barbell is not the only progress that can occur in your journey as an athlete. Even though the final result is […]

WHAT IS VELOCITY LOSS FOR NEWBIES

THE HUMAN BODY DOES NOT LIKE FATIGUE. The body in general wants food, sleep, and recovery. However, as human culture has evolved over time, movement and activity has grown in popularity, and looking good has become a cultural norm. Similarly, so has the need to move our bodies to play a sport or go to the gym. […]

HOW AND WHEN TO USE VARIATION

The body doesn’t like change, it is as efficient at a molecular level in changes that allow homeostasis and as lazy to macro changes of its status. Everybody has tried to lose fat or gain muscle mass once in their life time and everybody knows how hard it can be. What usually happens is that the body […]

WHY MOVING WITH INTENT IS IMPORTANT

“Good character is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character”. Heraclitus, with these words, tell us that effort is needed in order to be the person we aim to be. I think we can say the same about training. If you want to become a good […]

Using Velocity to Control Exertion

Percentage Based Training is the most popular training method in order to set the intensity of a workout. It refers to the Repetition Maximum (RM), the number of repetitions one can lift with a certain load. For instance, 10RM means that a certain weight can be lifted 10 times maximum. More frequently we refer to […]

Velocity Loss During Resistance Training

Sometimes I love to do some challenging training exercises that to the worlds eyes, I know, look crazy. Last summer I spent 92 minutes of my life on the Air Dyne, also called “Hell Dyne”, with the aim to burn 1000 calories as fast as possible. One month ago I did the “30 minutes squat […]

SuperPOWER training

There is not a sport or performance where strength and power aren’t required. They are strictly linked and the development of one of them results in an enhacement of the other. While strength is the ability of your muscle to do certain work, power is the result of strength and velocity, that is the ability […]
