Nick Fowler, Director of Strength & Conditioning, covers the fundamental basics of building strength (@thenickfowler). With the 2017 Games only a few days away, we’ll be focusing on all the things you need to know to help you plan for next year. Whether you’re a Games athlete just trying to make it to Regionals, or if The Open is your entire season, we go over the fundamentals of building strength.  This episode is all about making sure you are doing the right things to build out your program, what your body actually needs, and how Nick has structured Jacob Heppner’s last 8 weeks. Enjoy the show!
