Ep. 26 - Sean Noriega on Modern Programming Strategies

About this episode

Sean Noriega discusses modern programming strategies and athlete performance in this episode.

Was a great time having a long time friend like Sean on the podcast. Here we sit down and I get to ask him some more nuanced questions about tertiary deadlift days, a return to hyperspecificity, and we dive into a more nuanced conversation about how athletes need to sometimes just try harder.
