METCON finisher after resistance training
What are your views (or what does the research say) about METCON finishers after a resistance/weight training session. I am lifting weights 3x week (FB split), I also want to improve my cardiovascular endurance and am currently implementing a 15 minute METCON type workout after my weight lifting sessions. Is it good or bad for my overall training, will it hinder my strength progress goal?
Workout structure with extra curricular activities
What's the best way to incorporate training (resistance training) into a workout schedule when also involved in other activities (sports, bjj, martial arts, etc) for optimal recovery? I train BJJ two nights per week. Should i plan my cardio or resistance training on the same day as the BJJ class so that I have a dedicated rest day (no training at all beside walking or mobility/stretch routine)? OR keep the resistance and cardio training on separate days from the BJJ training?
Holiday workouts
Loving the PPL program you put together! Looking ahead to the holidays, I was wondering if you'd share ideas for how to put together a one-week workout program using bodyweight and/or bands? I know you've talked about the limits of bodyweight training in the past, but thinking for just a week to make sure progress is at least maintained (and for those of us who still like to work out while on vacation)
Fitness trackers
Hi, I know you’ve talked a lot in the past about the inaccuracy of, specifically calorie count with fitness trackers. I’ve been using a whoop for the sleep and recovery components, but having switched from a Fitbit, I’m SHOCKED at the calorie counts on the whoop. They are so low that it’s actually discouraging. My question is, do you feel like the things whoop is good at, out weigh the activity tracking? If not, would you suggest going back to Fitbit? I know Tony really likes oura ring and I’m working my way there but am not in a position to invest at this moment :( thoughts?
