1366: The Benefits of Gymnastic Ring Training, Training for Performance Over Aesthetics, How to Program Full Body Workouts & More
In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer Pump Head questions about gymnastic rings, good performance goals to focus on, the primary and accessory exercises to program into a full body training routine, and their thoughts on bootcamps. Adam versus the bear. (6:30) It smells like a campfire in the bay area. (20:01) Updates on the evacuation notice for the Andrews family. (20:47) Putting things in perspective. (30:00) The online market is exploding for trainers. (37:09) A conversation surrounding the value of going to college and how statistics are misleading. (42:43) #Quah question #1 – What is your opinion on gymnastic rings? (50:14) #Quah question #2 – You guys often push to achieve performance goals versus aesthetic goals. What are some performance goals that I can focus on achieving, such as greater mobility or strength goals? (54:33) #Quah question #3 – If you were programming a full-body routine, what primary exercises would you build it around and how would you rotate in other accessory exercises? (1:04:41) #Quah question #4 – What are your thoughts on boot camps? I’m a trainer who focuses more on one-on-one training, but there are other trainers in my gym who do more group HIIT training. My concern is that the average person has high stress and performing these high-intensity exercises is only exacerbating that. I am supposed to be taking over some of those classes, but I worry that they are doing more harm than good.
