Do you want to train some of the highest performing athletes in the world and keep them at the top of their game? On today's show, I talk with Dr. Tim DiFrancesco who is the lead strength and conditioning coach for the Los Angeles Lakers.
In this episode we discuss:
How he made the leap into professional sports. How is top strength tips can work on every patient/client regardless of age or experience. Why your workout should focus on time under tension and perfect form. How to stimulate muscle growth by increasing volume of work. Why breaking perfect form effects long term performance. How a PT background sets you up for success in the strength and conditioning world. And so much more!
This was a great interview with Tim on how his background as a physical therapist influences his strength and conditioning principles. I learned a great deal from Tim on this episode and I hope you come away with some great insights to use immediately in your clinical or fitness setting!
