Periodization in Resistance Training
In this latest episode of the B&B Connection, Bret and I discuss periodization and its relevancy to resistance training. In case you don’t know, periodization can be defined as the planned manipulation of exercise program variables (in this case sets, reps, load, etc) to optimize a given fitness component. Despite what you may have heard, research on periodization is highly conflicting. Here we discuss the limitations of the researh, delve into what can be gleaned from science as well as experience, and provide opinions for practical application of periodized principles. Hopefully it provokes thought and debate on the topic. Enjoy!
