Description

Should I lift during the pre-season and how much? Today we talk about how strength training can fit into a base period plan and we talk about a few white papers that explored the topic of weight lifting during the pre-season. We have a dedicated strength training episode you may want to revisit. This episode is focused on a higher level overview of how to implement strength training in the pre-season.
