Hitting the sweet spot vs. missing lifts during intensity

A guest article from strength & conditioning coach Phil Nourse, discussing the pro/cons of intensity training, and discussing how training lighter during prep can prepare for when you finally lift heaviest on meet day.

Does lifting more always mean you get stronger?

  1. The program described by Steve Justa looks like something I'd consider for a volume cycle. I'm still a super nube when it comes to planning my cycles, but this kind of appeals to me. I also feel this type of training could help developing technique especially for Oly lifts. Any thoughts?

  2. Hm, good article, and good site. It certainly supports the whole volume/intensity thing that powerlifting likes to use.
