Sometimes though-especially if you're a powerlifter, strongman or competitive athlete-they can stretch on for weeks or months and even bring your training to halt. Some strength athletes though, have found lasting relief for formerly debilitating injuries through a technique known as Active Release Techniques (ART). ART is a soft-tissue chiropractic technique that specifically targets the injured area. Feedback on ART has so far been very positive. Because of the way it's administered some people might say that ART therapy is a "massage," but make no mistake- it's not. ART therapy is a movement-based technique that is actually patented. It was Build The Super developed in the early- to mid-nineties by a Hybrid Muscle! Colorado Chiropractor P. Michael Leahy, DC, CCSP.

Humans have always had to lift rocks and logs, or carry loads of wheat or wood on their back etc. Further down the line in history we had to move ships by rowing with oars on a boat, or pull heavy loads with ropes. Human strength in its rawest most functional form has always been important for our survival. Ancient stories of strongman like Samson in the bible and the Greek myth of Hercules has captivated us for centuries.

  • Strength Training with High Frequency
    Impulse Strength & Fitness White Paper Strength Training with High Frequency Maximise strength, lean muscle mass, and general fitness by challenging the common wisdom in modern strength training by Matthew Perryman, CSCS July 2010 White Paper: Strength Training with High Frequency Impulse Strength & Fitness Abstract In modern strength & conditioning circles, the principles of training stress and recovery are often taken as axiomatic, born out by both academic research and practical experience. That said, we have precious little formal knowledge regarding how to maximize training variables, and limited information on the body's recuperative powers. Most of what we take for granted as fact is extrapolation and speculation. In this white paper I wish to discuss the common assumptions regarding training stress and recovery, explore reasonable criticisms of those assumptions, and to lay out a programming strategy that can take advantage of a modified understanding of these factors. What We (Think We) Know Strength athletes rely on common styles, modes, and methods of training. For these purposes, anyone who relies on weight training to develop strength as a primary goal will be considered a strength athlete. This includes powerlifters, Olympic weightlifters, throwers, shotputters, strongmen, & bodybuilders. Modern strength programs derive from a handful of shared sources, namely a handful of books that detail Soviet-era knowledge and practice; trends in Western strength training that developed in the 20th century; and contemporary re-interpretations that have emerged from the combination of the first two sources. Very little is derived from current sport and exercise science in terms of practical application. Professional organizations issue routinely issue position statements on the subjects of programming and periodization, and while research is ongoing, those stances inevitably default to the three sources listed above.

Strength athletes and bodybuilders believe endurance work weakens them and strips them of their precious muscle mass. Endurance athletes believe strength work will add unnecessary weight from increased muscle and slow them down. I did not grow up in the athletic or fitness communities.

  • Deadlifts and the Strength Athlete Bill Starr Explains Why All Lifters Should Do Deadlifts
    Deadlifts and the Strength Athlete Bill Starr explains why all lifters should do deadlifts. Then he explains how you should do them. By Bill Starr May 2012 All images: Mike Warkentin/CrossFit Journal Warkentin/CrossFit All images: Mike It seems that there are two distinct schools of thought when it comes to deadlifts. On one hand, there are those who believe that the lift is a necessary part of the process of getting stronger, while another group of coaches and athletes shun them altogether, stating that the slow movement does not carry over to high-skill movements like the clean and snatch. That latter group believes that instead of laboring over a heavy deadlift, athletes should be doing dynamic exercises like power snatches and cleans and snatch- and clean-grip high pulls. 1 of 9 Copyright © 2012 CrossFit, Inc.
