The High Performance Physiology Podcast is co-hosted by Chris Beardsley and Rob Mauceri. Each episode showcases an example of how muscle physiology and biomechanics can be used to identify the best ways to train for athletic performance.
Unknown Host hosts High Performance Physiology, a education show with 29 episodes published.
Chris was sick this week so this week's episode is a short one covering some practical suggestions on how we can still get productive training sessions while suffering from either a cold or flu.
Chris and Rob describe exactly how to combine bodybuilding with athletic preparation training for people who want to pursue multiple goals at the same time. They give three separate options depending on whether the two g
In this very practical episode, Chris and Rob talk about how athletes can increase maximum strength without gaining weight (or without gaining too much muscle mass).
Following directly on from last week's podcast episode on potentiation, Chris and Rob talk about contrast training from a physiological perspective. They explain why in most cases, a more traditional approach to athletic
Potentiation is a temporary and reversible increase in exercise performance as a result of a previous bout of exercise (note that this is the exact opposite of the fatigue definition). In this episode, Chris and Rob expl
Following on from the previous episode about muscle strain injuries, Chris and Rob talk about the physiology of tendon damage and how it likely leads to both tendinopathy and tendon ruptures. Afterwards, they describe ho
Chris and Rob talk about how muscle strain injuries happen, and what we can do in strength training programs to help reduce the risk of them happening.
Chris and Rob talk through what the literature says about the relationship between track sprinting performance and the muscle volumes of the hip extensors, hip flexors, knee extensors, knee flexors, and ankle plantar-fle
Chris and Rob continue describing how their proposed workout plan template (speed, maximum strength, stretch-shortening cycle, and eccentric strength) can work even when speed exercises are varied greatly over the week.
Chris and Rob talk about the popular strength and conditioning idea that there multiple strength qualities across the force-velocity spectrum, from maximum strength to strength-speed to power to speed-strength to maximum
Endurance running performance is determined by three components: [1] maximal aerobic capacity, [2] lactate threshold, and [3] running economy. In this episode, Chris and Rob talk about how strength training can contribut
Chris and Rob chat through what strength ratios between exercises can tell us (and what they cannot tell us) about writing athletic training programs.
Continuing from the previous two episodes about powerlifting, Chris and Rob tackle the problem of "work capacity" in this context. What does work capacity mean? What are the underlying physiological adaptations that cont
In this episode, Chris and Rob continue the powerlifting theme from the previous week. While the previous episode covered the main lifts, this episode is dedicated to accessory lifts to support gains in squat, bench pres
In this introductory episode, Chris and Rob explain the underlying adaptations that contribute to powerlifting performance in general terms, and then discuss basic concepts like sets and reps, progression models, potenti
How do strength training programs transfer to sporting movements? What is the role of different exercises? Chris and Rob unpack the physiology and then go on to provide both positive and negative examples from existing t
Chris and Rob explain the definitions of rate of force development and explosiveness in sporting contexts before going on to talk about how to develop these qualities in strength training programs.
In this long-awaited episode, Chris and Rob talk about periodization. While periodization itself is somewhat overrated, there are some benefits associated with aspects of it that can be replicated in other ways.
After a short break for the holidays, Chris and Rob are back for their first episode of 2026 talking about deloads. There are two scenarios in which deloads are taken: planned and unplanned. Planned deloads are written i
Chris and Rob change the format for this episode. Rather than covering physiology and biomechanics and then talking about how that information guides strength training programs for athletic performance, they talk about t
