Podcasts about strongfit

Today's podcast features movement-focused strength coach Julien Pineau, founder of Strongfit. With a background in sports ranging from competitive swimming to MMA and strongman, Julien started coaching in 1993 and opened his strongman-focused gym in 2008. Known for his integration of all systems of the body, along with his eye for human movement, he's worked with athletes across various disciplines, pursuing growth both inward and outward. It's easy to get overly accustomed to the typical training tools we are provided with. What is now the standard of physical training on the level of barbells, dumbells, machines, and heavy linear conditioning, however, is quite different than the physical demands on a human in our native environment. In so many ways, training with a sandbag is a great equalizer, as it brings online, so many of our instinctive human systems, and reminds us of our innate function. In today's episode, Julien explores human instinct and body intelligence in training, covering sensory aspects (myotomes) of hands and feet, the role of anxiety/frustration, isometrics, the nervous system, the heart's intelligence, bone loading, grip strength, and more. This insightful discussion touches on essential training and performance concepts.

Main Points 2:00- The story of what led Julien to sandbag training 8:00- The role of frustration in training, and its role with awkward objects and difficult situations 13:00- The role of myotomes in using one's hand in manual labor, squeezing, and sandbag training 17:00- Anxiety found in chronic training practice, and the role of using prolonged rest and frustration to force greater focus on the given sessions 22:30- What martial arts give a generalist from a training and psychological perspective 33:40- The value of sustained movements, such as a long isometric hold, and withholding value 38:30- Defining the somatic system of the body, along with the strength of the heart 43:00- The role of the heart's strength and function in PTSD 49:00- Dynamics of loaded carries, isometrics, sandbags, and holistic function of the body (along with myotome function) 59:00- Isolation versus compound movements on the level of myotome function 1:01:45- Grip strength, pulling and deadlifting dynamics 1:04:00- Embodied aspects of training and the body, related to the intelligence of the heart 1:07:00- The relationship of the gut biome to one's conscious thought 1:12:00- Bone Crushing Strength: Myotomes, foot training, grip, and overall body strength 1:21:45- Managing balance in the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches of the nervous system Quotes 7:10 "All the strong men back there were wrestlers; back then it was seen as the best way to get strong. It was less 1-rep max, more being able to move with stuff” 8:50 “I think anxiety is a chronic version of frustration” 12:55 “Frustration is created by your environment; you can change your envionrment or you can deal with it” 13:30: “A 200lb sandbag and a 200lb barbell are not the same thing” 17:25 “A lot of time is just ego lifting, they turn anything that is acute into a chronic state; you will notice those people that train 6 times a week, they are on the anxious side because they are turning everything into a chronic state” 18:20 “Anxious people go to Crossift more” 27:45 “If we take frustration and try to lower it,

few coaches train defence in training currently

My training with a rpoe, sled and sandbags. Why? and the art of cratmanship, called Shokunin in Japan

The Protocol / fasted version for Janine and how we use it

such a deep rabbit hole, and i am talking all the way to the biological level

Strongfit system & seminar, and the age old question "what is Strongfit?" answered, finally. I go in one of the most important rabbit hole so far btw... 

Training frequency for exercises based on recovery for proper programming Deadlift vs BTQ vs bodyweight, etc...

The 2nd level of the S-Pyamid is Stabilisation Bodyweight for strength is the answer?

Soooo... the trip to Cali and the UCLA study 

So first the UCLA study is on in a few weeks, and the shit show that is Ozempic

What is Game Theory and how can it help you with your training?

So how does one make the template (or any programming work)?

Shoulder issues and pain, specifically during or from the Bench Press

Sooooo... The Protocol and how we adapt it for performance & strength

Our overall training, my template coming up

A very important topic i think, and the dark side of narcissism 

Head positioning and shoulder health. The difference between pressing and jerking the weight. Also, the Q-1 as a refresher is needed

Ading to the Movement Box, balance through movement patterns

Last weekend Janine competed for the first time at Nationals, she took 3rd with a 400kg total. Let's talk about what we saw and the plan moving forward

the answer is yes

The age old question: sandbag or barbell?

Assistance Work: Compound vs Isolation, and why i think we should stay away from the latter

Soooo what exercises did i use to get back toward being strong?

Let's finish that point from last week with warm-up and assistance work

Is your shoulder hurting during or after the bench press? let's talk about a few ideas

I am back coaching, and that means template, metoring and the whle thing. This is part 1 of a few on the subject

Meet my new co-host Mike

Posterior vs Anterior Tilt: which one for the deadlift? and more...as usual

A rant podcast was necessary. The disaster that is the documentary about Cleopatra on Netflix, Disney movies and such

Assistance work, intent and how to deal with them damn muscles that don't cooperate

So what did I learn in my quest of becoming strong?

how to get better at Crossfit Level 1, 2 and 3

Fungus and behavior: Cordiceps, Zombie Ants, Zombie Mice, Zombie humans?

Today's podcast features movement focused strength and performance coach Julien Pineau.  Julien is the founder of Strongfit, which started as a gym, and is now a full educational program for coaches and fitness/movement enthusiasts.  Sports have been a part of Julien's life since he was young, and he has athletic backgrounds in a variety of areas from competitive swimming, to mixed martial arts, strongman, and more. In 1993, Julien began his coaching career as a conditioning and grappling coach for the MMA gym where he trained and in 2008, he opened his own gym that focuses on strongman training. Julien has a fascinating ability to visualize and correct proper human movement patterns, and has worked with athletes from a wide variety of disciplines.  He is a man on a journey inward as much as he is outward. The current world of training seems to exist on a level of “exercise proliferation” much more than it does digging into the main principles of human performance and adaptation.  Coaches often times have their own favorite exercises and drills, and have athletes perform them to “technical perfection”, citing the ability to hit particular positions as a marker for program success. On today's podcast, Julien Pineau goes into the fallacy of training athletes based on one's preferred exercise selection, or technical positions, while rather viewing training on the level of the “human first”.  Julien views training on the level of the entire athlete, and has exercise principles starting with the “inner most” human mechanisms.  He gets into his ideas on internal and external torque chains extensively through this show, and describes how to fit muscle tensioning patterns to the needs of athletes in the realms of speed, strength and injury prevention.

I am going a bit on a rant as to where we are in the fitness industry and what it takes, really, to make progress

The Woman King is about the history of the Dahomey "amazons" but is gaslighting everyone about the history of the Dahomey kingdom, who made most of it's wealth through the slave trade. The list goes on and on. Hollywood needs to be stopped

the dermatomes and myotomes give us a much more precise IT / ET map. Everything is movement pattern

A systematic umbrella review of the evidence shows low serotonin levels is not associated with depression. "This review suggests that the huge research effort based on the serotonin hypothesis has not produced convincing evidence of a biochemical basis to depression. This is consistent with research on many other biological markers. We suggest it is time to acknowledge that the serotonin theory of depression is not empirically substantiated."
