With Seb's growing interest in hypertrophy training (pun intended), we decided to deep dive into the theory and practice of effective bodybuilding training for weightlifting. Is it much different from what hypertrophy research teaches us? Does the sport of weightlifting require a unique blend of prescriptive practices? In this podcast episode, we survey and break down the landscape as we understand it. This includes a conversation around range of motion, exercise selection, body part...

2023 is coming to a close. Given all of the changes this year, particularly with Weightlifting House, Philosophical Weightlifting, and our professional and personal lives, what better way to finish it than with a year-end wrap-up.

Weightlifters have never been the strongest athletes. In the squat, bench, and deadlift (i.e., force-driven movements), strong man athletes outperform most. How would those incredibly forceful athletes stack up against our best? Where would they place in the continent or the world? Along with answering this question, we discuss strength sport influencers, training frequency, and why making progress in weightlifting can be so challenging.

If you're an advanced weightlifter or someone new to the sport, a 100kg/70kg snatch will always be a meaningful lift. Some people snatch that in a few months, some in a few years, and some will never touch those weights. Why do we see such a variation in abilities? For us, this is an important question to answer. Most people will never be able to load those milestone weights onto the bar. Here's how we help them get there. Join WEIGHTLIFTING.ai - https://weightlifting.ai/ and get access...

After 10 years of weightlifting, you have a unique relationship with the sport. You can take the path of self-development or you can keep comparing yourself to others. A quote mentioned during the podcast reflects our viewpoint: "Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today." When you start to challenge why you do what you do and how you do it, your life starts to change. Here's our challenge to the traditional perspective. Join WEIGHTLIFTING.ai -...

The Olympic qualification procedure is flawed. Weightlifting isn't about performing once and claiming to be the best. Our sport should move toward a system that rewards involvement and consistently high-performing athletes. In this episode of the show, Seb and Joshua discuss topics ranging from the Olympic qualification procedure, and the next Weightlifting icons, to why periodized training plans should have dramatic fluctuations between each block.
