Ep. 21 | Preparing for the Platform pt. 2 of 4 | So Ya Had a Bad Day, How to Reset After A Bad Training Session

Send us Fan MailOne missed rep can hijack an entire peak if you let it. We sit down and get practical about the moment training stops matching the plan, especially when you’re close to a powerlifting meet. We talk about how to tell the difference between a random off day and a predictable readiness issue and give you practical tips on what to do when a lift doesn't go as planned. There are many externals that can negatively effect your training such as stress outside the gym, disrupted nutrition, the beach day that turns into dehydration, and of course sleep and hydration. We explain why you should communicate with your coach right away, why trying the same weight over and over is a trap, and how to pivot during the session to still get meaningful stimulus without digging a deeper hole. You’ll also hear our mindset rules for salvaging confidence: drop the weight enough to move well, stack high-quality reps, and stop feeding the spiral. We even share why deleting videos of failed lift can be the right move when your brain won’t let go. Whether you’re in a peaking block, chasing meet PRs, or just tired of bad days ruining good training cycles, this one gives you a clear reset plan.
