STRENGTH AND POWER
TRAINING INFORMATION FOR THE SERIOUS ATHLETE

Sportsmanship-these young women have it in abundance. If I wore a hat it would be tipped to each one of them.

Look at this video and you will know that sometimes it's more important to do the right thing than to win!

Strength training information tip: Are you testing the results of your training program or are you just hoping and guessing at the outcomes?

Do you think we are able to continually bring home world championships by not following a carefully designed workout schedule? The quick answer is NO. Every set, rep and selected exercise is considered based on the relationship to the ultimate goal-personal bests.

We use clearly established test days throughout the training schedule.

Once every four to six weeks a mechanism to evaluate the effectiveness of our schedule is put into effect.

Is your squat lift poundage actually going upward or are you stagnated? Can you Military press more now than two months ago? Is anything better now? You will not know unless you test.

Without periodic tests, you are wasting your time and energy on a potentially non-productive workout schedule. In each training session, a set goal is established or should be established. At the end of the particular series of training sessions in the mesocycle, measurable results should be obtained. If they are not what you expected then changes to the program are necessary if you want to achieve your goals.  

Building into the program regularly scheduled test days gives these direct benefits:

*It measures the validity of the strength program design.
*It clearly indicates a benchmark day; one that will give instant feedback to the previous hard work.
*It will provide incentive to go onto the next phase of the training.
*It will put in a semi rest day of low volume.

Depending on the mesocycle we test on a regularly scheduled basis in all of our lifts; consider doing so in your program and see just how you stand relative to the final objectives of the year.

If you aren't measuring, you don't know where you're at.

Strength Training Information tip: Water, the essence of life

Keeping your body well hydrated throughout the day is the key to staying healthy. Water predominates and regulates basic cellular functions in all of our organs. Some scientists estimate that it makes up 70% of the body. Are you getting enough water to keep yourself strong and healthy? Read more.
