#30 - Assessment Tools for Strength & Conditioning, Inflammation, Allostatic Load, Athlete Performance, and much more!

The Fitness Experiment

How do you check in with your personal fitness and nutrition? Do you? Do you use subjective measures like energy and mood? Or do you prefer hard data like one rep maxes, heart rate variability, and body fat percentage? We talk about a number of assessment tools we use in the coaching business, for both competitive athletes and health junkies. Jesse discusses how he assesses incoming clients; their training age and potential, how to determine their prescribed volume, the pros and cons to one rep maxes and much more. I (Chett) also discuss some of my initial assessment tools for nutrition clients; determining eat habits, macros, allostatic load and the usefulness of heart rate variability (HRV), how inflammation affects weight and much more! Enjoy the episode, and don't forget to leave us a 5 star rating if you like it AND a review!
