Episode 125: Super Simple Method to Increase Lifting Performance Using a Notebook
About this episode
- Why data is important
- My bias is a training notebook vs. an app
- What to include
- Training plan
- Date, time, duration
- HRV, RHR, and sleep data
- Exercise, sets, reps, time to complete sets, duration /density
- Intensity - the percentage of 1RM, RPE or RIR
- Other: pre-workout or electrolytes, how I felt, diet changes
- Keep PRs in the back of the notebook
- Other general notes
- Turn off your phone
- Bluetooth headphones
- Death metal shirt and headband = less talking to me
- Review every 4-6 weeks
- New micro-lecture available about eye position, breathing, etc between sets (pay what you want)
