In this episode, we cover:

  • examples of pure weightlifting workouts
  • how the work rates in weightlifting modalities compare to traditional endurance modalities
  • the physiology of weightlifting workouts
  • the biomechanics of weightlifting workouts
  • the 3 step process I use for improving weightlifting capacity:
  1. Strength + Raw Capacity
  2. Barbell Cycling Skill
  3. Barbell Cycling Capacity

In fitness sport, we test conditioning in lots of different ways. 

Burpees, rowing, thrusters, pullups, etc.

For the next few weeks, we'll be looking at weightlifting, gymnastics and monostructural modalities, how our physiology responds to each of them, and how to structure training for each of them.
