The chronic impact of high intensity training is unavoidable even when every possible control is implemented. And when I refer to high intensity, I’m not talking exclusively about failure training—anything that would be considered sufficiently stimulating (I.e. effective reps) is intense enough to warrant mitigation strategies. It’s not enough to

Execution Cues: – Depending on goals, these can be done standing, seated or kneeling and from different angles. We’re going to proceed with the assumption that the seated variation is being performed as this has the most universal applications.– Set the cable at roughly head height or slightly above. Have

Like foam rolling, we can see increases in flexibility and mobility from stretching, as well as possible decreases in delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) if used strategically as part of a cool down. But overuse of stretching — static and (especially) dynamic — can actually cause MORE fatigue; thus, impairing
