For many athletes, especially masters, itās the truthā¦
I know. Thatās a hard one to sit with.
Because youāre not lazy.
You show up. Every session.
You push. You grind. You do the work.
And yet, the lifts have stalled, the progress is SLOW š¢
Hereās the thing youāll rarely hear...
Training harder isnāt the problem.
Training without a foundation is.
Iāve worked with athletes who were training 5, 6, even 10 sessions a week.
Strong. Committed. Frustrated.
Not because they werenāt working hard enough.
Because their body had nothing left to EXPRESS that work with.
The nervous system was tapped.
The movement patterns were breaking down under fatigue.
And every extra session was just adding noise on top of noise.
Now hereās what nobody wants to hear
The athletes Iāve watched make the biggest jumps in their lifts?
They trained LESS.
They recovered MORE.
And they built a foundation their body could actually build on.
One of our athletes went from training 10 sessions a week...
to 2 or 3.
Same weights. Then heavier weights.
Without the pain. Without the plateau.
Her words, not mine š
āThe least amount of lifts Iād ever done, the least amount of squats Iād ever done. And yet Iām getting stronger and moving weights better. What is happening?ā
What was happening was simple.
We stopped adding stress her body couldnāt use.
And started building something it could.
Two things I want you to take from this today:
Ā 1ļøā£ More is not always more. For masters athletes especially, it almost never is.
Ā 2ļøā£ If your lifts have been stuck for months, the answer is almost never another hard session. Itās a smarter one.
Your body is not brokenā¦ yet (training stupid will result in stupid things happening)
Itās not your age.
Itās not your genetics.
Itās the approach. And that can change.
If this hit close to home, comment āSMARTERā below.
Iāll reach out personally and weāll take a look at whatās going on. š

had a heck of a day and it wasnāt luck.. here is a big change he had in training recently š
Evan was having issues collapsing under heavy weight, his right leg losing control when he would be catching weight, and had even had some tweaks in the past from it all too..
The fix that he focused on this past cycleā¦
How he set his core/brace before getting into the lift.. if you watch his clean setup (3rd slide), youāll see it as he is coming down to the bar.
He first creates pressure into his pelvis with no breath (diaphragm activation) then adds breath on top of it!
His words, āI feel so much more solid!ā
One change in setup, HUGE change in results!
6 for 6, 2 State Records and š„š„š„ across the board!
Congrats Evan!! šš
Want to feel solid too?
Comment ācoreā š and Iāll send you the free core mini course we put together for weightlifters.
