    Ep 34_Training to Failure: Myth, Science & Strategy

    In this episode, I explore training to failure by analyzing the scientific literature through the lens of first principles physiology. Given the inconsistencies in research, this approach enhances our understanding and helps optimize training programs for hypertrophy and other musculoskeletal outcomes. We explore: * Conflicting research findings on training to failure vs. training with reps in reserve * Differentiating training for hypertrophy vs. strength training * The role of momentary muscular failure vs. technical failure * How beginners vs. experienced lifters should approach training to failure * The concept of muscular strength deficit and neurological access * Why exercise selection and tissue specificity matter * Avoiding the trap of volume overload and injuries You’ll learn how training to failure fits within broader adaptation principles and discover that not all failure is equal, ultimately guiding you to make informed decisions in your training approach. This episode will also touch upon: * Load application that respects capacity and promotes adaptation * Programming that recognizes the difference between skill acquisition and tissue development * The intelligent use of intensity as a biological input, not a motivational tool * Muscular strength deficit: The gap between neural access and anatomical potential * Patterned movement constraint: The neurological consequence of repetitive movement in the same vector * Motor unit recruitment zones: Understanding spatial limitations in patterned hypertrophy work * Stimulate / retrain / de-train framework: Intensity mapped onto recovery and adaptive bandwidth * Adaptive currency: The finite biological resource for generating structural change #FunctionalRangeConditioning   #ControlYourselfPodcast   #ExerciseScience   #TrainingToFailure   #TissueAdaptation   #FRSInternalStrength   #LoadApplication   #JointCapacity   #NeuromechanicalTraining   #StrengthDeficit (edit and add ours as you see fit)

    Ep_29: The Origin of Human Movement by Means of Natural Selection.

    In this episode, I had the privilege of speaking at the Royal College of Chiropractic Sport Sciences of Canada (RCCSS) Move 2020 Virtual Conference: The psychological, biomechanical and neurophysiological implications of human movement. I discussed some foundational FRS® principles in our approach to injury management and athletic development. ⁣Topics include:⁣ How are movements created? Natural selection for movement during embryologicaldevelopment. The process of joint cavitation and why space matters. Looking through the lens of physics to better understand movement…and many more.⁣ ⁣ This episode provides an overview of the key principles governing the thought process behind training and treating homo sapiens.

    Ep. 28: Managing the spine: Exploring blind spots in manual therapy and S&C.

    In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Michael Chivers to discuss our ongoing development of the FRS Spine Practitioner course.  We touch upon back pain epidemiology, historic approaches to spine training, the shortcomings of spinal literature, the evolution of the bipedal spine, spinal anatomy and neurophysiology physiology, and other topics. This episode, as will the upcoming course, provides vital information for manual practitioners and the S&C community alike who are tasked with the ongoing care of spinal pain and function?

    Ep. 27: Manage the system, not the symptoms.

    In this episode Dr. Spina sits down with Sport Specialist Chiropractor, and FRS Instructor Dr. Michael Chivers to discuss the functional anatomy and clinical management of the shoulder girdle. However, as is usually the case, the conversation ends up following a number of important tangent topics, this time related to the overarching idea of system emergence and how it affects the evolution of human movement, anatomic evolution, injury creation, as well as injury management. This deep dive is invaluable for the listeners of all backgrounds including Strength & Conditioning specialists, Manual Therapists and medical practitioners, as well as those simply looking to improve their physical wellbeing.
