Episode description

In this episode of the podcast Dr. Kyle Travis and I discuss tapering and peaking for strength performance. We discuss a recent publication of his that examined step (1 week) and exponential tapers (3 weeks) with an overreach prior to an unload to maximize performance of the squat, bench, and deadlift.

If you want to know more about volume load allocation, stimulus-fatigue-recovery-adaptation, and the reversibility of certain qualities, then this podcast is for you.
