In our third episode of this new season, we sat down with heart rate variability expert, former swimmer, and professor at Tacoma College, Trever Gray.

Tune in to hear how Trever's leveraging these innovative protocols across his training and teaching. Whether you're a trainer, manager, or strength coach, get ready to explore a new method of training, intensity, and most importantly recovery.

THE DECISION TO GO-IT-ALONE

TRAIN TOGETHER. TRAIN THE SAME.

Equal Training Needs Equal Research

Since launching the PowerUp in January, our team has found a serious lack of research focused on female athlete development, injury and performance. 

With few resources available, training protocols are less informed, leaving many with little confidence in their strength and conditioning plans and injury-mitigation preparedness. 

The Latest Research

Plyometric training can improve jump performance in females under 18 years old. This is the first study to evaluate the effects of plyometric training (PT) on female youth.

There is little research focused on how different training protocols impact female youth as they mature.

Thus, these researchers sought out to evaluate the existing literature and consider how future research can become more inclusive and informative. 

In our second episode of this new season, we sat down with Senior Director & Business Unit Manager of the Studio Standalone Division at Gold’s Gym, Tory Hale. Tune in to hear how Tory's redefining the "out of the box" gym experience. Whether you're a trainer, manager, or strength coach, you're in for some very unique insights and tips. 

Introduce New Training in the Off-Season

This is the latest research on resistance training (RT) and its impact on running performance.

The study found that one lower body RT session impairs sub-max running performance for several days post-exercise.

Why is this important? While your athletes might not be training for the next Ultra marathon, it could inform how you introduce new protocols across your training seasons. This research is among the many pointing to the importance of a 'transition' period between seasons, a topic we're focused on due to the latest NCAA guidelines.

The NCAA guidelines are changing the way you communicate and track athletes. Want to ensure you’re taking the right approach to stay compliant? Here’s a breakdown of what the rules are, how to prepare your team and ways to ensure your technology is supporting your work.

Being able to offer remote or online strength training to athletes and clients can save you time, increase retention and reduce the structural inefficiencies of on-on-one training. That's why thousands of coaches are turning to strength training software to help provide greater access to their existing and new athletes.
