Episode 120 - A Deep Examination of "Specificity"
EpisodeMay 24, 20211h 19m
Principle of specificity bro, everybody knows that? But do they? What's more specific to a squat 1RM, a leg press 1RM, or doing a set of 10 on squats? Why does squatting have just as good of transference to leg press strength as it does to squatting, but not the other way around? Why won't training tricep pushdowns in the 6-8 rep range improve your lockout on bench press more effectively than tricep pushdowns in the 15-20 rep range? The answers to these questions, and more, are covered in this episode of Iron Culture.
