	EP 018 \|\| Strength in Stretch: How Elastic Bands Transform Training with Dave Schmitz	10 Aug 2023	01:14:49
In this episode of RunFORM, join our coaches, Bobby McGee and Matt Pendola, and their guest, Dave Schmitz, as they discuss the immense benefits of training with bands for runners and triathletes. This training method is great for athletes of all levels and even the general population just looking to improve mobility and longevity. It’s also a great replacement to lifting weights, which may come as a surprise. Whether you're a beginner looking to establish solid fundamentals or an experienced athlete aiming for peak performance, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in moving better. If you're interested in enrolling in RunFORM for access to all of these movements, you can do so here: https://www.pendolaproject.com/offers/NsNFzL5h/checkout Show notes: Dave describes himself as an Orthopedic Physical Therapist who discovered a way for people to train their body the way it was designed to work. Resistance Band Training (RBT) can assist and resist the force drivers of functional movement, Momentum, Gravity, Ground Contact Forces, and can do this for anybody, anytime, anywhere. This makes RBT the most effective and sustainable fitness tool. The obvious benefits: Portable - Light Weight Train Anytime - Anywhere simulating Any Human Movement Adaptable to any fitness level (Rehab, General Joe, High Performance Athletes) No gym required during travel Creates instant solution to staying consistent The Hidden Benefits: 1 - Variable Ascending Resistance (Free Weights are a Constant Resistance) allows bands to assist or resist gravity accelerate or decelerate momentum increase or soften ground contact forces maximizes long lever arm stabilization adapts to anyone and helps anyone, including injured, regain higher levels of movement performance Truly train deceleration control which is #1 cause of injury train power by changing rep speed build greater long lever arm peripheral joint stability which dramatically reduces joint injury potential 2 - RBT is not gravity dependent which: Allows you to create multiple resistance vectors, specifically horizontal resistance which allows you to train shear forces #1 force that leads to joint arthritic changes, ligament injury, low back injury and rotator cuff trauma Allows you un-load against gravity with attached band training which reduces gravity and its impact on joint surfaces Allows you to resistance train locomotion movements which is the blueprint on how the body was designed Why Flat Band? Most Durable Most versatile (trains all aspects of human performance and fitness) Adheres to the body Low maintenance Low cost Molded vs Layered Bands Molded Bands - Liquid latex poured into a mold Pros: Typically less expensive Can purchase in multiple colors Can find anywhere Good for very low resistance - rehab movements Cheap to manufacture using various qualities of latex Layered Bands: Multiple Layers bonded together to form a band Pros Safer Stronger Durable (Average training life - 4 to 6 years) Far less durable More likely to tear or break Tension inconsistency with end range stoppage Not designed for high intensity strength training or performance training Consistent and smooth tension development Designed for high intensity training if desired Cons The Quantum "Layered" Band Difference 1- Uses Latex Bonding which increases band durability by 300x and eliminates band layers splitting 2- Includes a latex weld to eliminate top layer peeling 3- Creates a soft feel and consistent tension development 4 -Package without shipping powder which is irritable to eyes 5- Packaged with central band to eliminate crease defects and premature breakage Like all RBT Packages - The Gym in A Bag is backed up with proven virtual coaching and client support. Bands are not like a dumbbell which essentially has one setup option. Band training requires learning how to apply and use correctly to maximize results and band longevity. This is the real magic behind The Gym in A Bag.

	R3-19 If You Don't Use It Will You Lose It	28 Mar 2021	00:23:04
We've all heard the phrase "Use it or lose it." We've also all heard the phrase "So's your old man." but that has nothing with this episode in which Matt and Chad talk about the concept of muscle memory and what happens when you take time off of training or switch your focus or goal. They also make the case for consistency in training to help counteract life's little hiccups.
	R3-18 The Sweet On Sugar	23 Mar 2021	00:35:49
Matt and Chad discuss America's biggest addiction - added sugar - and how it affects performance and everyday life. Let's be honest with ourselves about what sugar does, how much we take in, and why it may or may not be serving our goals or putting up hurdles instead. They also touch on supplements versus whole, real foods. #pendolaproject #relativerunreadiness Links: NH DEPT of Health: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjb1Lmr37zvAhW4IjQIHaO5BbIQFjABegQIBBAD&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dhhs.nh.gov%2Fdphs%2Fnhp%2Fdocuments%2Fsugar.pdf&usg=AOvVaw2E9x68UqbDjiPKm1tzT40k Scripps: How To Cut Sugar - https://www.scripps.org/news_items/4822-6-ways-to-cut-your-sugar-intake Harvard: https://www.health.harvard.edu/heart-health/the-sweet-danger-of-sugar Healthline: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/how-much-sugar-per-day
