Episode 2758- Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss the practice of periodization by keeping it fresh to optimize your strength training and health.
Keeping It Fresh
- What is Periodization? (6:15)
- Vinnie’s workouts have periodization built into the program.
- Periodization is the structure of workouts into cycles: “macro, meso, micro.” (12:30)
- Another way of saying this is: to change things up to keep things fresh.
- Vinnie goes deeper, using his 2-day routine as an example. (15:00)
- Periodization is a way to build strength by focusing on different parts of the body. (19:00)
- Another approach Vinnie uses is in his aerobic exercise. (23:00)
- Depending on his goal, Vinnie changes things up.
- How do you know when you should mix things up? (33:00)
- When you’re not seeing much change happening in your strength, or when you’re getting bored. (39:00)
- There is such a thing as changing things up too frequently as well. (41:00)
- If you feel like you are not making progress, it may actually be time to let up for a little bit, not necessarily grind harder.
