CircSci is back with another episode…this one all about meathooks. Did you think people couldn't talk about meathooks for an hour?
You thought wrong!
Garrett (@garrettmovement) and I cover risk factors that come up with entering, exiting, and holding meathooks, how to program meathooks over the long run, what meathooks SHOULD look like and more.
Did you ever wonder how much to train meathook at first? Total training volume in meathook will vary, but how do we know what too much is for our lil' obliques and smushed intercostals.
What about the key technical ideas that make a meathook? Will all safe and efficient meathooks look the same?
Listen to find out!
