#34 - The Importance of Video Analysis For Barbell Training & Powerlifting PLUS Ways to Improve It

Taking videos of your barbell lifts allows you to improve training outcomes, reduce injury risk, improve training autonomy and decrease financial barriers to coaching. The problem is that taking videos can feel cumbersome or make you feel like you're "that person" in the gym. And you might wonder if it's really necessary, especially if people used to get by just fine without recording themselves.

 

We have this tool that allows us to enhance our training, our coaching businesses, and our clinical outcomes, so why not use it? Videos allow us to provide additional feedback, keep additional documentation, compare and measure progress, and helps us fine tune our training.

 

If we only go based on what it "feels like" we're NOT optimizing our training.

 

In this live episode of the PRS Podcast we'll discuss why athletes, coaches, and clinicians could all benefit from using videos as tools to optimize their own training or their clients' training, regardless of whether they're working with a coach or client remotely or in-person.  We'll also talk about how to enhance video analysis by improving the quality of your videos and unique ways to provide feedback remotely for coaches and clinicians who aren't working with clients in real time or seeing their lifts in the gym.
