  Overtraining, Adaptogens, and Recovery | Supertraining in a Year (Pages 481–510)

  Sep 12, 20261h 8mS5

  Rick Brunner joins Justin Lima and Yosef Johnson for a conversation spanning four decades of sports nutrition and performance science. Rick shares how his trips to the Soviet Union in the 1980s connected him with scientists studying creatine, adaptogens, recovery, and athletic performance—eventually leading him to introduce creatine to elite American athletes around 1987. The guys dive into supplement quality, brain health, recovery, neuromuscular performance, reaction and quickness, and how nutrition should work alongside training. Rick also explains why the future isn't simply about building bigger muscles. It's about developing reactive, healthy, quick muscle through the integration of training, nutrition, recovery, and measurement. ___ Buy Supertraining to Read Along with Us - use code STRONGER20 to save 20% https://uaconcepts.com/product/supertraining ___ CONNECT: Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/ Blog: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/blog/ ___ From our sponsors: Hawkin Dynamics Site: https://www.hawkindynamics.com/ Hawkin Dynamics is the world leader in force plate solutions.

  Rachel Newman | The STRONG Act and the Future of Strength & Conditioning

  Sep 10, 202631 minS5

  What could the STRONG Act actually mean for strength and conditioning coaches? Rachel Newman, Marketing Manager for Customers and Community at TeamBuildr, joins Justin to break down why strength and conditioning needs its own SOC designation, what that could mean for salary and employment data, funding for personnel and professional development, and why coaches need to continue supporting the STRONG Act. They also discuss why the profession needs to unite around the title Strength and Conditioning Coach , how better federal data could help coaches understand career opportunities and compensation, and why this is a long-term investment in the profession. Most importantly, they don't just talk about supporting the STRONG Act — Justin calls his representative live during the episode. It takes about 70 seconds. If strength coaches want better recognition, better data and a stronger profession, we have to be willing to speak up. ___ CONNECT WITH US: Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/ Blog: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/blog/ ___ From our sponsors: Hawkin Dynamics Site: https://www.hawkindynamics.com/ Hawkin Dynamics is the world leader in force plate solutions.

  Mike Woicik | 6 Super Bowl Rings, Two Dynasties, and a Lifetime of Lessons

  Sep 9, 20261h 24mS5

  Mike Woicik is one of the most accomplished strength and conditioning coaches in NFL history. Across 30 years in the league, he won six Super Bowl championships — three with the Dallas Cowboys and three with the New England Patriots — after beginning his career at Springfield College and Syracuse. Mike joins Justin to look back at the evolution of strength and conditioning through a career that spanned multiple eras of the profession. They discuss the influence of Soviet training methods, Boyd Epley’s impact on Mike early in his career, bringing a college-style development program into the NFL, position-specific conditioning, speed and power development, single-leg training, in-season strength, testing, technology, and return-to-play. They also discuss what Mike believes the role of a strength coach should actually be. After decades working behind the scenes with some of football’s greatest teams and players, his philosophy remains simple: the job is about helping the athletes — not making the strength coach the center of attention. ___ CONNECT WITH US: Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/ ___ From our sponsors: Hawkin Dynamics Site: https://www.hawkindynamics.com/ Hawkin Dynamics is the world leader in force plate solutions.

  In this episode of Supertraining in a Year, Justin and Yosef break down pages 466–480 and explore the relationship between pain, injury, and training.
