Train to get stronger
In This Episode:
- We talk with Brandon about Dark Horse Performance, how it began, and what he specializes in with training his clients.
- Brandon used to work as a firefighter and we talk about how they trained, the tests to become a firefighter focusing on the physical tests.
- Dark Horse performance and its podcast's main message is "Train to be strong."
- We discuss basic training principles
- Movement patterns like a squat, a hinge, a push, a pull, and a lunge.
- Box squatting
- Dead Lifting
- Weighted pushup variations
- Weighed Chin-ups
- Step-ups
- Loaded Carries
- We talk about the principles behind training with chains as weight. It allows you to overload your movement pattern in the strongest point of your movement pattern. The higher you lift, the more chain links come off the ground, and the weight increases.
Quotes from This Episode:
"Even when maybe things are stacked against you, even when on paper, you may not be, that the champion or the one that's chosen to be victorious you figure out a way to make it happen. A little bit of grunt work, a lot of focus and concentration, and you're able to pull out the win or pull out the victory, that is the dark horse." ~ Brandon
People see the big lift, but they didn't see the lifts that I had to build to work up to that." ~ Brandon
