    015 Powerlifting part 1

    In this introductory episode, Chris and Rob explain the underlying adaptations that contribute to powerlifting performance in general terms, and then discuss basic concepts like sets and reps, progression models, potentiation prior to the lifts, and the basic purpose of the training programs from a physiological point of view.

    014 Transfer of training

    How do strength training programs transfer to sporting movements? What is the role of different exercises? Chris and Rob unpack the physiology and then go on to provide both positive and negative examples from existing training programs.

    013 Rate of force development

    Chris and Rob explain the definitions of rate of force development and explosiveness in sporting contexts before going on to talk about how to develop these qualities in strength training programs.

    012 Periodization

    In this long-awaited episode, Chris and Rob talk about periodization. While periodization itself is somewhat overrated, there are some benefits associated with aspects of it that can be replicated in other ways.

    011 Deloads and tapers

    After a short break for the holidays, Chris and Rob are back for their first episode of 2026 talking about deloads. There are two scenarios in which deloads are taken: planned and unplanned. Planned deloads are written into a training program when fatigue is expected to accumulate. Unplanned deloads are taken when fatigue accidentally accumulates.

    010 One arm chin ups

    Chris and Rob change the format for this episode. Rather than covering physiology and biomechanics and then talking about how that information guides strength training programs for athletic performance, they talk about their own experiences in training for a one arm chin up.

    009 Sprinting

    Continuing on from the previous episodes discussing vertical jumping and throwing, Chris and Rob break down the way in which we can support the sprinting movement through targeted strength training.

    008 Throwing and punching

    Building once again on previous episodes in which they talked about strength, speed, and power, the proximal to distal sequence, and vertical jumping, Chris and Rob now tackle how throwing and punching work, and discuss how to train to improve performance in those activities.
