Exercise Evolution

Joe emphasizes the importance of adapting training methods to the individual needs of athletes, particularly as they age and face increased injury risks. He highlights the shift from traditional barbell exercises to more functional movements like unilateral training and goblet squats. Sal likens the training process to sculpting, suggesting that as athletes gain experience, more refined techniques should replace the basic, heavy lifts. Adam adds that these principles also apply to the general population, cautioning against overly complex exercises like the snatch for those with limited experience.
