The boys discuss supplemental lifts and outline the most helpful of these exercises. A supplemental lift is a lift that LOOKS like the main lifts. Training the supplemental lift carries over to improvements in the main list. We do them to: 1) move more weight than we can with the primary movement and, 2) to train a longer range of motion than we can with the primary movement.

Coach Wolf, Starting Strength Coach and Strength Coach at Crossfit Solace talks about training with injuries, training for strength in a crossfit environment and more.  No one knows more about using barbell training to improve performance for crossfitters.

A deload is a period in training, typically a week, in which the stress in the programming is decreased in order to allow the trainee to recover and dissipate accumulated fatigue. This is a desired effect for a late intermediate or advanced lifter. When deloading, we often reduce the work by one set and the intensity by 10-15%.

Hambrick and Reynolds speak with Stef Bradford, coach, editor and author about the genesis of Starting Strength, food, dogs and more.

Hambrick and Reynolds describe and ILLUMINATE how to detune the Texas Method for older lifters and ladies. We do this by keeping the frequency and intensity of our lifts the same as in Texas Method, but reducing the volume.
