Unlock Hidden Potential: The Power of Aerobic Training in a Strength Program
|
I know I am going to sound like a broken record here, but this system seems to still get no love. As you know I am talking about…. ….The aerobic system. In Triphasic Training II, we dedicated almost 25% of the book to aerobic capacity—and for good reason. This isn’t just about long runs or “getting in shape.” It’s about building the engine that drives recovery, repeatability, and even max-effort lifting. “A bigger aerobic system equates to a better-functioning athlete who can absorb more stress. With a bigger aerobic system, your athletes can do more max-effort lifts too.” - Triphasic II If your athletes recover faster between reps and sessions, they can do more quality work over time. That’s how performance is built. Here’s a great aerobic method to implement: Contralateral Circuit (PHA Style)
The goal isn’t fatigue—it’s recovery system activation. Use this one of many system that builds capacity instead of burning athletes out. Check out the book for the full details on how to build capacity by training your athletes aerobic system. We go over almost a dozen methods in detail. https://triphasic2.com << order here All the best, Mike and Cal PS - Here is what Eric had to say: "This book is a great resource for new methods in strength and conditioning that can change how you coach. It goes into a deeper level of programming and periodization that can help athletes, coaches, and anyone who is looking to increase their fitness. It dives into methods that many coaches might have been afraid to try or implement because it is different from the traditional models and methods. https://triphasic2.com << order here If you do not want to get this newsletter, we will miss you, sniff sniff, but you can unsubscribe by clicking the link below and -poof- we are gone. |

Have you ever watched an athlete who looks explosive in warm-ups... but can't seem to fire their glutes when it matters? We see it all the time. The athlete who can squat 400+ pounds but their glutes shut off the moment they sprint or jump. In Triphasic Training II, we call this the "firing pattern disaster"—and it's probably costing your athletes more performance than you think. Here's the thing: Most glute activation drills are garbage. Clamshells? Please. Glute bridges for 20 reps? Come...
First off, my sincere apology for the ill communication here; between myself traveling to Europe at the last minute to some professional athletes to Cal traveling all around and then I was at the ISSN conference, a few shipping / website hiccups, project deadlines etc, ,time just got away... ...but we are back now and today I have a podcast with the man himself- Coach Cal Dietz. This was originally a bonus call for the Phasic 2 book, but it was packed with so much gold, I had to bring it to...
Dr Mike T here and I am stoked to let you know that the wizard himself Coach Cal Dietz has a breakthrough new program that's going to change how you think about ACL injuries. As you know, non-contact ACL injuries are absolutely skyrocketing... ...but here's the thing: you don't have to accept this as "just part of the game." Cal has cracked the code on something that's been hiding in plain sight for years, and he's put together a brand new program that shows you exactly how to slash ACL...
