    Zack might not be as elite as me, but this is the best squat advice I’ve heard Zack. This isn’t just coming from anyone, I am a legendary youth swim coach, with so many championship rings that I can’t turn doorhandles: so you can trust my opinion on squatting. Just the other night I was almost arrested on fake charges that my neighbor called in. I was told that unloading my firearm into a conjoining wall isn’t allowed; even though the US had just beaten England for the umpteenth time. Needless to say he hates America. Found out his nephew swims for my club team. Seems like I might need to accuse another swimmer’s family of extortion. Gonna enjoy the rest of my night with my 9th shot of fireball, and get ready to continue making history.

      @RohannvanRensburg 3 года назад

      Indeed. Absolutes lie in the realm of basic philosophy, everything beyond that relies in large degree on context. There are still absolutes, but they are not universal (i.e. there are right answers for individuals in a given context).

      The full quote is "only a Sith deals in absolutes, I will do what I must." Obi-Wan is responding to Anakin saying "If you are not with me, then you are my enemy". Obi-Wan isn't doing the same thing as Anakin by classifying Anakin as an enemy just because he's not a jedi. He's just saying that if Anakin is going to fight, Obi-Wan is going to defend himself.

    That is one of the reasons I am a lifter, it is akin to building an RPG character however you want, but it's YOUR OWN body.
    There are so many variables to play around with, resulting in ease of progress for those who venture beneath the regular workout plan. (aka - rotating exercises to achieve different stimuli - thus additional results)

  • @jarilo8639
    @jarilo8639 5 лет назад +10

    What about intuitive training? How can you possibly program SRA when the amount of factors that go into the stimulus and recovery are so huge, dependent on each other and can vary widely depending on how the day was? RPE is a poor substitute too. Some days you move slow but can handle lots of volume, other days you are fast and should be working with higher intensities.

    • @zacktelander
      @zacktelander  5 лет назад +8

      I'm not sold that RPE is a poor substitute however your experience is valuable so program the most efficient way you can. The possibilities are limitless with SRA, however it is important to have structured training that you can track. The fundamental understanding as a coach is that no set amount of numbers without adjustment will produce the best results. Therefore it is hard to give people a hard outline on what to do exactly. I would argue that the person with a structured program will fair better than the other lifter MOST of the time.

    @ziguy7883 5 лет назад +16

    I’m no expert but Zack doesn’t it kinda make sense to both front and overhead squat more often then back squat since they are more direct to they’re competition lift counterpart?

    • @zacktelander
      @zacktelander  5 лет назад +16

      ziguy 7 so that was exactly the purpose of this video. The goal in THIS PARTICULAR EXAMPLE of a strength phase is to improve the back squat. This is done before or after a competitive or competitive prep phase. Remember periodization is based off of building non specific to specific aspects of the lifts. Front squats and overhead squats would better be placed closer to competition and not when your goal is to increase the back squat. Also in the explanation of the microcycle there are many many other places to implement those more specific variations of the squat. However, you don't want them to take up meaningful amounts of SRA because the goal of the cycle is to up the back squat.

    Why is it when I ask any strength or fitness organisation or channel about jump squats for weightlifting all I get is a wall of silence?
    Why is it such a mysterious subject?
    Why is it that no one ever talks about it?
    Why is there only 30sec clips of it all over RUclips with no speech whatsoever?
    Is it an amazing training tool that top coaches don't want to reveal? Or is it utterly useless so no one bothers with it?
