Show Notes

  • 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)
