In this episode, we look back through history and the forgotten contributions of one of the ultimate greats in our field of sports performance, Dr. Bondarchuk.
Dr. B was a pioneer in the study of Transfer of Training, individualization of training, and periodization. His results and the results of his athletes speak for themselves. (12 World Records. His athletes won Gold, Silver, and Bronze in three Olympic Games. That’s every Olympic hammer medal for 12 years in a row.)
His work should be commonplace knowledge in our field.
