Driving Force: The Why Behind RTS

from The Reactive Training Systems Podcast

What really drives a coach to keep reinventing how athletes train and peak? In this conversation, Mike Tuchscherer explains how his obsession with powerlifting led him to develop practical systems like RPE and reps-in-reserve to help athletes better interpret their own performance signals and train more intelligently. He also discusses the constant experimentation behind elite coaching—from stress index and velocity tracking to individualized peaking and taper strategies—showing how solving failures and unpredictable performance drops continues to shape his methods.
