#461 The Simplest Way To Determine If You're Training Properly [DON'T Ignore This!]

This week's show includes 3 main topics/questions. First, Joe shares a story involving a conversation he recently had at Target with a former client. Although the interaction with his former client was brief, it included a valuable reminder/lesson that Joe shares with his audience. After hearing this story you'll be able to determine if your current training program is TRULY effective/functional or if it's doing more harm than good. [You'll also get the inside scoop on Joe's new "functional strength standard" LOL.] After Joe finishes "storytime" he answers two listener questions. These topics include: 1) The most effective way to execute warm-up reps/exercises 2) Is it a big deal if football players (and athletes in general) squat above parallel? *For a full list of Show Notes w/ Timestamps visit www.IndustrialStrengthShow.com.
