“To promote long-term health, it is advisable to minimize running on roads and pavements as much as possible. Harder surfaces can cause more damage to your joints and tendons. Pavements, which consist of around 95% concrete, are particularly problematic and should be avoided altogether.”

“The time required to complete a race determines the appropriate training approach, not the distance covered.”

“Around 100m seems to be the ideal distance for the base phase because it is short enough to prevent significant lactate production, thereby minimizing its impact on your other workouts. Some suggest 200m strides as well, but I prefer the 100m distance due to its lower lactate accumulation and fatigue. The 100m strides offer the benefits of running at a fast speed without causing excessive fatigue.”

“There is a common misconception, often perpetuated by steroid users, that being above 10% body fat is considered "fat." However, for most natural individuals, maintaining a body fat percentage between 12%-15% is often optimal, and it is generally advised not to go below 10% as a natural lifter.
Staying within the range of 10%-16% body fat is a reasonable and achievable
goal.”

“To keep the intensity consistent between double and single leg exercises, the hurdle height for single leg exercises should be exactly half that of double leg exercises. The height from which your body falls to the ground is the primary factor that determines the intensity of a plyometric exercise. Other variables, such as the direction of body displacement (e.g.,forward + vertical displacement is more intense than vertical displacement alone), also affect intensity. However, when comparing double and single leg exercises of the same type, the height is the key determinant.”

“it’s not the external load that determines the level of
mechanical tension and maximum fiber recruitment in the muscles, but rather the proximity to muscular failure. Therefore, regardless of the number of reps, sets should be taken close to failure to achieve maximum muscle recruitment.”

“Full-body programs can be manipulated in such a manner that they are suitable for any lifter, from beginner to advanced. In fact, they are the most suitable schedule for the majority of natural
lifters. I'm referring to abbreviated full-body programs,”

“Any effective training routine should include a squat variation that
incorporates the technique described above, where the knees and hips break simultaneously. This approach can be complemented with a deadlift variation
to ensure comprehensive leg development. The appropriate squat variations
optimize quad stimulation, while deadlifts and their variations target the
posterior musculature of the legs.”
