   I write this piece because I am guilty of everything in it and will always be. However the goal is to eschew as much of the thinking flaws presented here as possible. The phrase “thought process vs. system” is something I heard a lot this past summer with Patrick Ward. While I had similar […]

He is one of the smartest exercise scientists I know and he has a good wealth […]

1RM Kinematics & Weightroom Culture

Any true repetition maximum (RM) is a perturbation to the neuromuscular system, not just the 1RM. So if the system is being tested, experiencing novel movement challenges, especially maximal ones, by default, exercise technique won’t be perfect. Depending how far away you are from a 1RM, joint kinematics can flicker in and out of “ideal” […]
