Bill is a Physical Therapist and, together with Mike Robertson, founded Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training, known as IFAST, located in Indianapolis, Indiana. Over the past decade, IFAST has quietly become one of the predominant hubs of education in the industries of PT and S&C. Former Bill mentees include Zac Cupples, Mike Camporini, and what feels like 25% of medical and physical prep staff in the NBA and MLB. This past January, Tim had the pleasure of going out to Indy for 3 weeks to learn from Bill. This upcoming January, Tim will be heading back out for 3 months to continue his study as he and Bill attempt to improve Tim's movement profile enough that he may be able to avoid hip surgery. Bill's a fiercely independent thinker, and one of the most intellectually honest individuals on the planet. As such, his style of communication may not be FOR everyone. But, as you'll hear from him, that's kind of the point. In this episode Tim and Bill touch on Bill's ability to continue training in the weight room despite middle age, numerous surgeries, and nagging pain, how he approaches restoring comfortable movement with his clients, and some uncommon considerations regarding total hip replacements.

Today's podcast features Bill Hartman.  Bill is a physical therapist, and in-demand educator in his approach to restoring a pain-free lifestyle, and understanding the governing principles of movement.  He has been a mentor to, or has inspired the knowledge of many previous guests on this podcast, particularly in regards to movement biomechanics, infra-sternal archetypes, and the compression-expansion model.  Bill owns IFAST Physical Therapy in Indianapolis, Indiana and Co-owns Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training with Mike Robertson, where he works with clients ranging from very young athletes to professionals. It is very interesting to look at how we approach the nature of “muscle weakness” and compensations in training.  For example, it is common to look at all compensatory action in the body as a “bad thing”, rather than looking at how the body actually uses compensatory action to produce force, or adapt to a particular sport skill, in addition to when that compensation might actually be a problem.  The human performance field has also looked at muscle weakness in isolation, rather than digging deeper into the underlying structural alignment of the body contributes heavily to what we are seeing out of muscle strength and function. In today's podcast, Bill goes into the adaptive nature of the body and what it really means when we are seeing compensatory actions in movement.  Within this, Bill also gets into the nature of reciprocal, or more “locking” movement of joints, depending on the task an individual needs to accomplish.  Bill spends a lot of time talking about strength training, how it can be a positive, but also the dynamics of the interference effect that can lead to undesirable adaptations for athletes over time.  Bill also covers external rotation and pigeon-toed athletes, and the nature of power training for wide and narrow ISA archetypes, and much more.

Bill is known as a problem solver. From his small, private practice, IFAST Physical Therapy in Indianapolis, Indiana, Bill provides relief to patients in pain from all over the United States (and other countries!) who could not be helped elsewhere. His detective skills for locating the source of patients' true problems are often compared to his favorite nocturnal comic book hero although he wears no cape or cowl (but does often wear a bat on his chest under his work clothes… you never know when a hero will be needed). Bill is an in-demand speaker and consultant across the country and half way around the world to share his approach in regard to restoring a pain-free lifestyle to other health and fitness professionals. He regularly mentors physical therapy students and interns many of whom have gone on to land positions in professional sport or become successful business owners themselves.  Bill is also the co-owner of Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training with Mike Robertson where he works with clients ranging from very young athletes to professionals. At the age of 50, he took his own advice and transformed himself from a painful and soft 200+ pounder to a lean and much less painful 170-pounds resulting in him being featured in Men's Health Magazine where he is also a member of the advisory board. Bill lives outside of Indianapolis with his wife, The Gorgeous One, along with his dog Paxton, and occasionally his adopted son Zac Cupples. To find out more about Bill and how he can help you, go to www.billhartman.net. In this podcast, Bill and I discuss the importance of creating a working model to guide you as a professional. Beyond that Bill just drops absolutely incredibly brilliant thoughts on a variety of topics.

Our guest for today's show is Erik Huddleston.  Erik was recently on the podcast, on episode 269, speaking about important elements of squat technique based on individual frames of the athlete.  After the show, I had some other important questions left over that I wanted to discuss, and also in that time, Erik has made a career transition to working in the NBA. Erik is currently an assistant sports performance coach with the Indiana Pacers and head performance coach for their G-League affiliate, the Ft. Wayne Mad Ants. He is the former director of performance at Indianapolis Fitness & Sports Training (IFAST), along with having NCAA D1 experience. When we program training for athletes, what factors are we considering when we select exercises? Do we just pick movements that are novel and random, or do we have a greater philosophy that helps us decide what types of movements to use, and when?  What about timing, such as exercise selection in the training sessions coming off of, or leading them up to competitions or tough practice periods?  Or, do we ever ask ourselves about what an athlete's development level (youth vs. pro) might mean for them with the types of exercises we are prescribing from a compression and expansion perspective? On the show today, Erik speaks on organizing exercise selection based on an athlete's training schedule (such as post or pre-competition periods of the training week, or even training year), how to use weight placement to train various athlete body types, and some critical differences in training, from an expansion/compression perspective, regarding youth vs pro level athletes.  It's so easy to fan-boy (or girl) over the workouts of “elite” athletes, but the key to good coaching is always knowing how to engage an athlete where they are at in their own development.

Timestamps and Main Points 5:28 – How to organize training based off of periods of “expansion” and “compression” 11:42 – How Erik quantifies what players are experiencing in practice and games from a “expansion/compression” perspective, and how to give them what they don't have then, in a gym setting 14:54 – Exercise selection principles that help athletes optimally reset in their “off” days 21:55 – How to adjust exercises to help them ramp up to a game or competition situation 24:20 – What a pre-season training load looks like compared to in-season in professional basketball 29:00 – What pre-season training looks like in high school sports where athletes have a lot more time to prepare without high volume sport loadings 34:41 – Situations where more compression will help an athlete, vs. situations where it will potentially hurt an athlete 39:25 – How to set up training for “pylon” shaped individuals to help their reversal ability in jumping and athletics 46:20 – How “flipping the pylon” of the torso, and having wide shoulders impacts squatting selection 52:06 – How the shape of one's torso impacts the types of plyometric exercises that players should utilize 54:46 – How to prescribe jump programming to individuals who have a hard time yielding in their movement relative to the ground 59:10 – How to approach plyometrics and jump training for youth athletes vs. elite athletes who are already at a relatively high level, and playing jump oriented sports constantly “Keeping player assets on the court is the most important part of my job” “Give them some of what they don't have that they are getting from the training and the basketball stimulus” “I have to assume that the vast things that are occurring on the court are output driven… that's where we get into that com...

Today's show is with athletic performance coach, Erik Huddleston.  Erik is currently the Director of Performance at Indianapolis Fitness & Sports Training (IFAST) and a performance consultant for a number of professional baseball & basketball teams. Erik previously spent time at Indiana University & Texas Tech University with the men's basketball teams. So often in the course of using barbell methods for athletic performance, there are often movements that are considered sacred cows of training.  There also tends to be common thoughts as to how these lifts should be performed, such as all athletes needing to squat heavy “ass to grass”.  In reality, athletes come in all shapes, sizes and structures.  Athletes of varying shapes may respond to various types of barbell lifts differently, and there are ways to optimize training for performance, and robustness when considering structural differences of athletes. Advanced and elite athletes will tend to utilize the feet, and stance in different ways as well.  Knowing how an athlete is leveraging the gait cycle, and what points they are particularly biasing to achieve their performances, is important when thinking about which lift variations we might want to utilize with them over time. For today's episode, Erik takes us on a deep dive into squatting and how it relates to the “reversal ability” of athletes, given their individual shapes and structures.  He also relates the phases of gait (early,mid,late stance) to squatting and jumping concepts, to help us better understand how to give athletes what they need at particular points in their career.  Erik cover important elements of single leg squatting as well, in this highly detailed chat on performance training.

Timestamps and Main Points 4:00 – Some of the things Erik has learned from spending time in both the collegiate and private sectors of training 9:00 – Things that Erik looks at in training video that he may be addressing in the gym setting 15:00 – Managing squatting and squat training in light of the various phases of stance 25:20 – How to “bucket” athletes based on need in squatting, in terms of depth and heel-elevation, particularly those with wider hips and narrower shoulders 35:00 – How an athlete's body shape and structure will tend to determine their functional ability and biomechanics 49:00 – Self-selection principles when it comes to strength and power exercises and coaching 52:00 – Shin angle principles in light of squatting and reversal power 55:00 – How single leg differs from double leg training in terms of pelvic-sacrum action and pressurization 1:00.30 – What Erik is looking for in the stances of the foot when an athlete is jumping or dunking 1:05.30 – Why banded work can cause athletes to “over-push” in jumping, and the impulse related nature of “point zero” in a jump 1:11.30 – More talk on jumping in regards to single leg jumping and accessing late-stance, and why advanced athletes tend to be more late-stance dominant 1:22:00 – Erik's take on athletes who are early-stance dominant, and how to help them overcome resistance, create compression, and ideally get to mid and late stance more easily “An ability to translate through the phases of gait is something that I look at (when assessing video)” “Some kids are naturally not going to be able to get lower in that athletic stance” “Gait is a constant falling and catching yourself as you go forward” “If the tibia moves forward and your heel is on the ground, you are moving towards the middle phase of propulsion…. as soon as the calcaneus breaks the ground you are in a later phase of propulsion” “(Internal rotation) doesn't allow for a lot of general movement qualities… or a fluid...

Today’s guest is Ty Terrell, a performance coach with the Atlanta Hawks, now entering their third season together. For over a decade before getting the opportunity to work with the NBA, Ty worked as a strength and conditioning coach at a variety of gyms and fitness centers including the YMCA and Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training (IFAST). He makes it a point to credit a huge number of influential people who have guided him along his professional journey to help him get to where he is today. “There are few people in our world who are truly original,” says Ty. “What we’re doing is recycling information that may be new to us, but not new to the industry.” Ty discusses two big buckets in this episode: mamba mentality and internal physics. He further breaks down the latter into three big areas of focus: position of the exercise, rate of force, and context or situation. When looking to maximize change of direction or agility, one cannot afford to overlook these three factors. Listen in as Ty defines mamba mentality and what sets apart the few that truly live it, describes why discomfort and challenge are part and parcel of improvement, and breaks down what makes a good squat and how to improve yours. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: [01:53] Why you will find fewer people in this world with mamba mentality [08:44] Overcoming imposter syndrome [13:17] The necessity of stress in growth [14:28] An introduction to Ty [19:53] What Ty looks for when looking to improve an athlete’s agility [31:40] Improving your squat [43:53] Ty’s favorite resources in recent months Reach Out to Ty Terrell at: https://completesportperformance.com/ (Complete Sport Performance) Links: https://www.rebel-performance.com/athlete-development (Become an Apex Athlete with Rebel Performance here) https://www.rebel-performance.com/coach-development (Become a top 10% coach with Rebel Performance here)

Erik Huddleston is the Director of Performance at Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training and this was without question one of the most informative chats I've had to date on ULP. He works closely with Bill Hartman at IFAST and as such has been well schooled in some very revolutionary concepts involving the the human body. In particular, Bill has done some tremendous work analyzing the various shapes of the body and how they influence internal fluids and pressures that in turn affect the position of the guts in movement. In this episode, Erik lays out some of the basic groundwork of this model and why it matters in S&C. Force production and absorption is heavily affected by peoples' shapes as are the different stages of propulsion in the gait cycle. Erik lays out the tendencies and compensations for different shapes and how to tweak your training/exercise selection for such considerations. He also hones in on the purpose of Oscillatory Isometric training and where it can fit into a program. Finally we discuss consolidating training and sport workloads to allow baseball pitchers to peak for each start. For anyone interested in more on the topic of stress, check out my ebook Quadrant Training. Erik can be found on IG @eph.24. Many of the topics we discussed can be found on his feed.

This is the best episode of #SPRINTORDIE radio thus far. Why?

Bill Hartman has the magic touch when it comes to feeling better, getting healthier, pain free, and more resilient, all while doing what you love: exercising, lifting weights, getting stronger, and building muscle! "Movement might be the problem but movement is also the solution." - Bill Hartman, PT Physical Therapist, Bill Hartman joins us to talk about his new book, "All Gain, No Pain - The Over-40 Man's Comeback Guide to Rebuild Your Body After Pain, Injury, or Physical Therapy" and the science and philosophy behind having a resilient body, even after forty.

Topics on this episode Introduction - Bill is known for finding solutions for people in pain that have failed with other forms of treatment. He owns IFAST Physical Therapy in Indianapolis, Indiana and Co-owns Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training with Mike Robertson. He is the author of the book, All Gain - No Pain: The over-40 Comeback Guide to Rebuilding a Fit and Pain-free Body After Pain, Injury, or Physical Therapy. First, the No Pain Principles establish how to reconstruct your body to recover faster, sleep better, move better, and have more energy all day. Next, the All Gain Principles teach you how to build bigger, stronger muscles in a minimum of time without beating yourself up in the process. My favorite source for knowledge I can recommend for anyone as it addresses so much of what most of our readers, and honestly, most of my colleagues struggle with. How well do you think the fitness industry has served people coming back after injury or PT? What's been missing? What inspired you to write No Pain All Gain? How has writing it influenced your work and your path? What have been the easiest movement and life strategies to implement for your patients and clients? What have they been most resistant about? Is there a particular element / habit that is a keystone in success for all your clients? (For example sleep or stress over a nutrition approach?) What's the place of exercise in recovering from injury or trauma? Why is it so hard for people to just go back to the gym or do things they once used to do without pain? In your book you talk about Body musculoskeletal stress patterns common to all people? What does that look like and how can one know they are dealing with that? Let's talk about the importance of breathing. If stress put you in a pattern how does breathing will keep you there? And how does it get you out of it? How do stress and breathing relate to pain and loss of movement variability? I keep a copy of "Why do I hurt" in my waiting room, and my clients are always amazed that pain is really in the brain. Can you explain that in relationship to resuming training and exercise? How does movement help pain in particular? What is the logical progression of returning to full activity after injury or surgery? What can someone expect and how can your book help with that? At what point does one pick it up and go! Like, could one do just the resets at first? Where can listeners learn more about you, the book and how do they contact you in your area and in the online world? Bill Hartman's Website - BillHartman.net Bill's Book - All Gain, No Pain - The Over-40 Man's Comeback Guide to Rebuild Your Body After Pain, Injury, or Physical Therapy All Gain, No Pain - The Over-40 Man's Comeback Guide to Rebuild Your Body After Pain, Injury, or Physical Therapy If you think you're too old to regain a lean, muscular physique and stay pain-free, then you need to read this book.

You'll learn how to take control of your health and your body without endless hours in the gym.
