If you've been following along with our Muscle Series, you've probably realized that we feature a new guest every other week. Today, we have Aaron Straker joining us! Aaron is a fellow business owner and coach who prides himself on being a coach that actually cares and leads from the front—plus he's a big quad guy—which makes him exactly the right person for this episode!
Aaron and Alex dive right into how he structures quad training for his clients, why having a training partner can be a game-changer (especially when you're dying on that last set), the ideal heel elevation for squats, and some cool insights on nutrition and recovery. And get this—he doesn't even use barbell back squats in his programming!
And as promised each week—don't forget to sign up to receive a FREE quad training cheat sheet. Give it a read, save it to your phone, and take notes!
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Be sure to like and subscribe and leave us a review if you loved this episode!
