Conditioning Series Part 3: The Methods to Building Elite Conditioning
from Everyday Strength Podcast · host Anthony Hagele
In this episode of the Everyday Strength Podcast, Anthony breaks down how to actually train the aerobic, glycolytic, and phosphagen energy systems using real physiological principles rather than guesswork. Instead of treating conditioning as random cardio or calorie burn, this episode frames it as a structured, long-term performance tool. You’ll learn how to sequence conditioning across training phases so adaptations build without competing, and how to manage stress and CNS load so conditioning supports strength and durability.Read the full episode notes at hagelestrength.comJoin the Performance Edge Network to receive Anthony’s weekly newsletterTimestamps:(00:00) Intro and recap of the Conditioning Series(01:00) The aerobic system: cardiac output, tempo work, and strongman endurance(09:20) The glycolytic system: power, capacity, and hybrid conditioning circuits(14:00) The phosphagen system: alactic power, capacity, and contrast training(17:55) Vertical integration and residual training effects(20:00) Stress management and CNS load(21:45) Practical programming guidelines and wrap-upDisclaimers & DisclosuresConnect with Anthony:InstagramXYouTube
