A great Saturday at Daru Strong Performance collecting data on amazing women athletes like @janaisamma to better apply our program. Today, being a dynamic effort day, we took the opportunity to collect a force velocity profile on Jana thank you @gymaware . Knowing the ideal weight to use for speed work, we can now properly and accurately progress her numbers based off of the current weight. This will take a little bit of the guess work out when assigning percentages for her lift. Jana is a beast, Jana, lifts on Saturdays before the weekend fun starts…. Be more like Jana!

Easy day back in for @rafaelcarvalhodesouza as he gets back into week 1 day 1 of the condensed conjugate method for MMA. Since Rafael has a fight peeking nearby, he is on a modified concurrent program rather than a full off camp program. This allows us to keep progressions to have him ready at all times while addressing a few GPP needs. Putting him fully off camp could run the risk of transitions back due to a short notice fight and we may not be able to reach the adaptations needed. We need to keep him strong and powerful while improving recovery.

Post weigh in rehydration for @warcorey tomorrow evening. Electrolytes powered by @drinklmnt for great flavors and proper sodium and potassium delivery! I’m a sport that often times relies on rapid weight loss methods via dehydration, proper hydration protocols are crucial to the athlete’s fight night performance. Hydration isn’t just drinking water it’s also replenishing glycogen and electrolytes lost in sweat. Remember we lose anywhere from 500mg to 1,000mg of sodium per pound of sweat lost. Don’t be the depleted athlete, be the dominant athlete! Hydrate smart my friends! #darustrong #darthflexx #mma #exercisephysiologist #viking (at Boca Raton, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZPE1YRg-CF/?utm_medium=tumblr

Train anytime and anywhere!! The world presents us with excuses and we reply with solutions. While it is important to have a systematic approach to training, it is also important to not dwell on the concept of complexity. A good coach knows that a gym, weights, turf are just tools… it is the coach who is the craftsman and molds his programs to adapt and overcome to any situation. No gym today, no problem, we have tons of space on the beach…. Yes we can develop power and maintain explosiveness on the beach and have a damn good time doing it! Stay strong my friends!

Solid end to the birthday week. Work hard and play hard! A good week of hard training and then the fiancé @captn_barbosa hits a home run with an Xbox series x - Halo Edition.
