#21 Round Table Talk: Programming Discussion

This impromptu episode features Coaches: Sean, Michael, Jaron, and Aidan starting the discussion off with differing philosophies in block durations within training. Former programming approaches such as Block Periodization and Emerging Strategies are referenced in tangent to the ways each coach has evolved their own operations for assessing a lifter's training performance over time. Questions are explored in detail regarding when to use % of 1RM and setting intensity/RPE caps in training, as well as dissecting the idea of pacing the progression of training intensity and differences amongst lifters. Case Study examples of powerlifters and their respective programming interventions will be provided to thought-provoke listeners as one of the more technical episodes to date!
