#346 Sophia Nimphius

from Strength Chat · host Steven Cuthbert

Just because something has always been done a certain way, doesn’t mean it’s the best way. This week I chatted with Sophia Nimphius, a Professor of Human Performance with 20+ years in elite sport. Sophia challenges outdated thinking and wants to push strength & conditioning forward, not by guessing, but by asking better questions. If you coach, train, or care about performance this episode will make you rethink a lot.  In this episode we break down: 🏋️ What strength and robustness actually mean 🧠 What robustness looks like in a real training environment 📊 Why we need to rethink how we test and measure performance If you’ve ever followed a method just because “that’s how it’s done”, this will challenge your thinking. 👉 Join the newsletterFollow Sophia:👉 @docsoph 👉 https://www.docsoph.com/  Follow me:  👉 @coach_cuthbert 👉 @strength_chat
