Since, over the past few years I've noticed that the supposed 'fitness industry experts' have forgotten what amounts to kindergarten level knowledge, I guess I have to be the one to re-edjumacate them. Along with the people who don't pretend to be experts but should know this stuff, too so they can see through the "expert's" total bullsh*t.
So this video will start a series examining the basic principles of training. This is just an introduction to them with brief and superficial commentary.
In the forthcoming videos I'll look at each in varying degrees of detail. Since it would take too long to examine all sports and all contexts, I'll tend to give some general examples and then focus on weight room stuff such as powerlifting, Olympic lifting and especially hypertrophy.
In this series I'll examine the primary training principles which are:
Specificity/SAID
Overload/Progressive Overload
Individuality
Reversibility
And what are at best secondary principles, not training principles at all:
Variety
Periodization
Adaptation vs. Accommodation
The FITT Principle
Supercompensation
