Good old specificity also APPLIES to TASK SPECIFIC RESIDUAL NEUROMUSCULAR FATIGUE! Yes, big long words, that basically means that your jump fatigue testing might not apply that well to running ;).
Dr Jackson Fyfe highlights that any type of interference effect between strength and endurance training will be strongly dependent on the residual neuromuscular fatigue (more neural and brain related vs peripheral muscle stuff!), and that it is specific to your activity. Or put simply — related directly to the task performed during the activity!
In the 57th episode of The Training Science Podcast, Paul and Jackson discuss
💥 whether intensity of your CARDIO matters or not on the effect on your strength GAINS,
🎯 how neuromuscular factors seem to be key when it comes to the potential interference of combined strength and metabolic conditioning training,
📝 as well as what are the mechanisms and factors that cause residual neuromuscular fatigue - so that you can be prepared for it, and do something about it!
