Coffee Hour Reschedule & Dr Bryce Lee Podcast
I've pushed back this week's coffee hour by 1 hour for a podcast recording with the wonderful, knowledgable and generous, Dr Bryce Lee. Dr Bryce Lee is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and the owner of Strength Space. Dr Bryce Lee has featured on the podcast and in HIB Pro numerous times to talk about health & fitness and training clients with special needs and conditions like osteoporosis and joint hyper mobility. We're likely to focus on a particular special need or condition in this week's podcast. What would you like me to ask Bryce? Comment below.

Do clients get it?
This is a bit of an embarrassing question, but I’m wondering if other studios have the same issue. We have a primarily an older client group 60 and beyond. The vast majority of our clients do not train to momentary muscular failure. They seem to still get benefit from the workout because they are seeing strength increases and report daily activities at home being easier to perform. There are only a small few that actually want to get pushed hard enough to go to muscular failure. A lot of our sessions just end up as a social 20 or 30 minutes with the client where they do moderate to moderately hard exercise. Sometimes this makes me feel like I’m not doing my job correctly. Does anyone else have this problem?

Some people take a long time to tolerate working at a high level of effort. Some things I’ll do to increase intensity: 1. isometric hold last repetition or every repetition 2. when they quit give them a specified time frame (2-5sec) and say something like “rest 5s then do two more quality repetitions” . Track their time to their quitting and give that as a goal to beat next visit 3. Increase their weight gradually in spite of their time under load 4. Do some eccentric only exercise 5. Unilateral movements 6. Educate repeatedly that the largest, strongest motor units are recruited during high level of effort work and these are the motor units that can keep you from falling with balance loss. 7. I’ll also do partial ROM repetitions. 8. Super slow You might already be doing all of these but just be inventive. If it’s safe and makes them work harder it’s usually good. I’ve found some people are just adverse to HIT. It’s not always the instruction or instructor but we should be doing our best to get the most out of every session.
