NEW AT THE SCHOOL OF STRENGTH | FEBRUARY 20, 2019 |
| Ladies and Gentlemen,
"There are many ways to get strong. Most are mediocre, some are effective,
a handful are extraordinary."
Hindsight is 20-20. And it's hard to look through historical records and argue intelligently against the superiority of the Russian system for developing enduring strength. Even despite the era of steroid use. As Pavel says "Everything else being equal—with everyone juicing—the best method still prevails."
So this week, we bring back three of Pavel's popular articles to help you dive deeper into the why of our approach. It's results like those below, achieved with Plan Strong™ programming, that keep confirming that we are on the side of the extraordinary handful.
Get the insider's understanding of how we build strength. Plan Strong San Diego, CA – March 16-17, 2019 Register * Plan Strong Boston, MA – June 29-30, 2019 Register * * Recertify all modalities—SFG, SFG II, SFL, SFB—at either event at no additional cost.
Power to you.

ARTICLE: Shared from T-NATION
Myofibrillar Growth & Conditioning—The Program | Dr. Craig MarkerStrength, speed, and a "functional" type of muscle growth. That's what you get from myofibrillar hypertrophy. It's the muscle of a lean African leopard and it's what you see in elite sprinters, boxers, and gymnasts. Now contrast that with water-injected chicken breast at the supermarket (in case you were looking for another reason to avoid poultry). That's what you get with sarcoplasmic hypertrophy.
StrongFirst Senior Instructor, Dr. Craig Marker, shares a 6-week protocol that concentrates on lean, striated myofibrilliar hypertrophy while burning fat and building the type of endurance needed to carry 160-pound kegs up multiple sets of stairs (as Dr. Fred Hatfield described it). It came as a byproduct of a Strong Endurance™ protocol for athletes that he worked on with Pavel. Head to T-NATION to read. |
