ADVICE

Stick To Novice Progression

  • Teach and prioritize correct barbell form using a proven model like Starting Strength before progressing.
  • Keep programming simple: add small weight increments frequently while the novice progression works.
ADVICE

Avoid Chasing Shiny New Workouts

  • Keep clients on the same basic lifts long enough to get results and resist chasing novelty.
  • Add controlled variety like prowler pushes to maintain interest without abandoning the core program.
ADVICE

Use Strength To Improve Endurance

  • Increase an endurance athlete's strength to reduce the percent effort of each movement and improve speed or endurance.
  • Prioritize three weekly strength sessions while keeping limited endurance work during off-season.
