In this episode of Supertraining in a Year, Justin Lima and Yosef Johnson cover pages 441–450 and dive into overtraining, recovery, and restoration — including the difference between general and local overtraining and why youth sport volume can create recovery problems that extend far beyond the weight room.They discuss why athletes don't always need to be fully recovered, how restoration should be periodized alongside training, and why repeatedly using the same recovery methods can become less effective. The conversation also explores how Soviet coaches approached massage, active recovery, psychological restoration, and other methods decades before many became popular today.Plus, Yosef explains why sleep remains the most important recovery tool available and why coaches need to help athletes become more self-aware instead of automatically reaching for another recovery modality.___Buy Supertraining to Read Along with Us - use code STRONGER20 to save 20%https://uaconcepts.com/product/supertraining___CONNECT:

In this solo episode, Bradley Hamner walks through the Attract A-Players Playbook, the first of three team-focused playbooks inside the BlueprintOS operating system. This episode continues a May mini-series on building great teams and gives small business owners a concrete structure for attracting and onboarding top talent.Bradley breaks down the three core elements of the playbook: an A-Player Profile and job description that defines what top talent looks like in each role and how they will be compensated; a written recruiting system with defined steps that owners actually follow every time; and a 90-day onboarding process designed to take new hires from zero to fully contributing as fast as possible.This episode moves beyond hiring tactics and into systems thinking. Do you have a documented profile of what an A-player looks like in each role?
