This is so true lol. My mistake last year was I would cram a week worth of volume in a single microcycle which prevents me from doing the intended training frequency of twice per muscle group due to recovery issues
Shouldnt be mentioned in the same breath as starting strength... Mike is an expert thats proved it on himself and people he trains...and on the other hand...
Great insight, thanks for sharing. I wonder: To what extent is our optimization of recovery being limited by our lack of distinction between recovery and adaptation?
It's a seemingly inane distinction with powerful implications. Our lack of distinction between the two [NOT referring to you] has led to a ton of confused application, that often has us shooting ourselves in the foot (antioxidants, icing, NSAIDS, etc.). I've been trying to figure out how to explain this for a decade, and I'm almost there! Your feedback is most welcome. Thanks again for your efforts.
Ahh, I understand now. Yes I agree -- a distinction needs to be made between adapting to a stimulus and merely recovering. To put it into the language of Seyle... Recovering vs supercompensating.
Mike anytime I see a barbell squat..I see no weight near or below the hips..None..Unless you are just walking with weighted load..Do not squat unless the weight or majority of weight is near or completely below the hips.. Like that girl in the video..I am watching where the hips or below and I see no load there at all..If you want to simulate the action of squatting like the harness wrapped around a horse carrying a wagon works with the pattern of the horses legs..Well, if I see no weight near the hips or completely below the hips, there is no pattern of functionality when it comes to squatting..Weight that high on the base of the back of the neck should only be walking or carrying weighted load but I would say more of a yolk wrapped around the shoulders front & back but definitely weight near the top of the spine, there should be no squatting at all..
I believe no one wants to be the last person on Earth that still barbell squats..Everyone now is starting to get it as well as myself..They are searching for devices to squat where the majority of weight is near or completely below the hips..They want excellent spinal health !! The Pit Shark Device, congruent leg presses like the Nitro Leg Press, Hip Belt Squats or sometimes referred as Belt Squats, Hip and Harness Lift, The Frank Zane Leg Blaster, the V Squat Device, the many newer Hack Squats where you can slide the circular plates for loading on each side that are farther down below hip level, even if there is a smaller bar to load a very tiny amount on some above hip level..The Super Squat if typed in UA-cam to see Chris Jones perform and I don't see the circular plates loading high at all --at least it appears at hip level..
its so awesome that you have Isabella as a client now!
Train appropriately isn't something that's easy to put on the back of a T-shirt.
Love it.
I'd wear that T-shirt just for the sake of balance lol

Jesus those tempo, i can already feel her pain
Mike, I appreciate you.
I much prefer watching and listening to your videos vs starting strength.

Interesting. What are your thoughts?

Actually... do you think you're looking for the difference between homeostasis and allostasis?
On second thought... probably not, but I like where you're going with all this.
This is interesting. You make a good point.
You guys do a good job with these videos.
Why high bar squat if you only past 90 deg? It's not Atg normally?
