Show Notes

In this episode Gerry answers more questions from social media followers on various topics in strength and conditioning and sports performance.

To start, he addresses the importance of avoiding the slippery slope of trying to become "too specific," with certain lifting variations and our perception of how much impact they can have on sports (sumo deadlifting and pitching in this example).

From there, Gerry discusses some advice for coaches and the certification process and how to navigate it. Then, the conversation shifts to implementing S&C for youth athletes, the best ways to charge/bill clients when you have a training business, adjustments/things learned with conjugate programming and why your squat depth may not be improving but if you should really care as an athlete.

All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!
