Summary
In this episode, Joe Gambino and Joe LaVacca discuss when to push and when to pull back in training, particularly in relation to pain. They emphasize the importance of tolerable pain, maintaining form, and monitoring how pain resolves after a workout. They also discuss the concept of hypermobility and provide a test to determine if someone falls on the hypermobility spectrum. They caution against excessive stretching for hypermobile individuals and suggest focusing on strength training and end-range control exercises instead. They highlight the need to tie progress to specific goals or activities to assess improvement.
Takeaways
When training, it is important to listen to your body and determine when to push and when to pull back based on tolerable pain and maintaining form.
Pain resolution after a workout can be a good indicator of whether you pushed too hard or if your training was appropriate.
Hypermobility is a spectrum that can be determined through a series of tests, and excessive stretching is not recommended for hypermobile individuals.
For hypermobile individuals, focusing on strength training and end-range control exercises can be more beneficial than stretching.
Progress should be tied to specific goals or activities to assess improvement.
