Episode 121 | John Kiely: Periodization Paradigms and Stress Theory
Periodization.
Strength and conditioning coaches and sport coaches use it to help their athletes progress and adapt - to get stronger, faster, and more powerful.
But, what if the foundation of periodization has roots from somewhere else? What if periodization was never intended for sport at all?
