3DMJ Podcast

Brad, Alberto, and Eric discuss how they set up athletes’ peak-week protocols. The coaches talk about which variables they manipulate, how they test various strategies, and the ideal peak-week scenario.

How does peaking work physiologically? What percentage increase does Alberto think a good peak can give someone? How can stress affect one’s peak? What needs to be done in order to be ready early? What is Eric’s peak week cheat code? Do the coaches ever “swing for the fences”?

The answers to these, plus many related questions are covered in this episode.
