#314: Training Modifications During a Diet

Alberto, Eric, and Jeff discuss autoregulating your training while dieting and how learning to autoregulate your training is vital if you want to get the most out of yourself. How do the coaches help their athletes develop the skill of being able to autoregulate their training? How can a person’s personality influence the way they autoregulate their training? How necessary are deloads? How has Eric’s opinion on deload frequency changed? Can a person develop more grit? Why is it beneficial to expose yourself to lifters who have different perspectives than you? What is the best training split? What was Alberto’s biggest lesson from his last prep? Why are “autoregulation” and “intuitive training” *not* the same thing? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
