#26 After Dark - Foundational Performance Training For The Tactical Athlete with Jeff Chenault
About this episode
Welcome back to Iron Sights After Dark. We’ve heard from performance coach & trainer Jeff Chenault before but in this episode, I brought him in for his first After Dark appearance to discuss performance training for the tactical athlete. Chenault discusses his background and how his search to alleviate pain sent him on a path to study the human body, root causes of pain & a deep understanding on how the body works. Jeff discussed fascia, holistic systems of the body & relates his knowledge to performance training for the functional tactical athlete who wants to achieve maximal performance. For a long time pushing the limits was the primary training strategy for active service members - research & performance training is creating a different breed of tactical athletes. Over the years, I’ve helped countless first responders increase their performance on the job. In this episode, both Jeff and I combine our experience as experts in human performance to share our best theories for how the tactical athlete can use proven concepts in the field of health & performance to increase their athletic performance and longevity both on and off the job.
