Today’s podcast is with Cal Dietz and Mike T Nelson, authors of Triphasic Training II. Today's podcast features Cal Dietz, of the University of Minnesota and co-author of Triphasic Training, and Dr. Mike T. Nelson, a leading expert in exercise physiology, neurological training concepts, and metabolic flexibility. Sports performance is like a tree in many respects. It starts with standard strength training methods, then branches out and integrates varying aspects of total human performance. From the period between the original Triphasic Training to Triphasic Training II, Cal has worked through many aspects of athletic performance, interconnecting physiology and neurology. Mike’s work spans many interconnected aspects of human performance, and compliments Cal’s work with physiological underpinnings. On today’s podcast, Cal and Mike share insights from their new book, Triphasic Training II, focusing on optimizing human performance for athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike. Primary topics in this episode will be practical neurological training concepts, the origin and evolution of the GOAT drill, evolving warmups and training integrations, athletic capacity building, oscillatory training, and much more.

If you're frustrated, you're pushing yourself on all these different levels with all these” Cal Dietz (34:40) “When we work out, it's basically, we come, we do one GOAT drill, and then we do our 1080 sprint protocol, one rep, and then we come back, and while the resting, they do the GOAT drill again. And so we end up doing four to six go or four to five go drills before the workout” Cal Dietz (35:50) “I've gotten emails from coaches, high school football coaches. Like, a kid could never catch over his left shoulder for whatever reason, so they all had him on. Well, now he's catching over the left shoulder. When they started integrating that drill in their passing drills” Cal Dietz (53:55) "The higher level coaches I watch, they all appear to talk less." Mike T Nelson (59:54) "The biggest thing with oscillatories is that we feel that our ability to stay injury-free has been increased because of the high speed, because that's how the muscle is getting hurt and that's how it's supposed to function on the field." Cal Dietz (1:17:05) "In general, the more developed your aerobic system is,
