#179 Dean, Ryan & George - Choosing A Loading Strategy

The boys break down how they peak their athletes and what goes into their decision making process —. Join us for a walk through of real case studies — weight cap cuts, fluid-retentive athletes, front load, back load, or an undulating approach, and why "stability is bliss" for some clients and chaos for others. WOULD YOU RATHER... A: Someone hide your house & car keys somewhere in your house 3 days of the week and you only realise just as you're leaving the houseOR B: Go to the gym with the nipples cut out of your Teeshirt 1 day every month and you can't explain it to anyone or joke it off.
