Aging vs Lifestyle: What’s Actually Causing the Decline?

In this episode, Anthony breaks down what actually changes with age from a physiological standpoint and what is really driving the decline most people experience.

Sleds, Carries, and Ergs for Conditioning That Actually Transfers

In this episode, Anthony breaks down how to use sleds carries and ergs to build conditioning that actually supports strength performance and recovery. You will learn how to structure aerobic work intervals and mixed modality sessions with intent so your conditioning improves without interfering with your lifting.</p><p><br></p><p>Read the full episode notes at hagelestrength.com/episodes/sleds-carries-and-ergs-for-conditioning-that-actually-transfers</p><p><br></p><p>Join the Performance Edge Network to receive Anthony’s weekly newsletter at hagelestrength.com/newsletter</p><p><br></p><p>Timestamps:</p><p>(00:00) Introduction and seasonal shift in training</p><p>(02:14) Overview of sleds carries and ergs</p><p>(03:24) Sled work benefits and implementation</p><p>(07:14) Carries for integrated conditioning</p><p>(11:48) Erg based conditioning overview</p><p>(15:47) Structuring aerobic and interval work</p><p>(19:29) Combining methods into mixed sessions</p><p>(23:12) Programming considerations and weekly structure</p><p>(24:27) Applying this to your training</p><p><br></p><p>Disclaimers &amp; Disclosures:</p><p>hagelestrength.com/disclaimer</p><p><br></p><p>Connect with Anthony:</p><p>Instagram: instagram.com/hagelestrength</p><p>X: x.com/hagelestrength</p><p>YouTube: youtube.com/hagelestrength</p>
