Summary

Velocity-based training, you’ve probably heard of it and have a vague understanding of what it is, but don’t fully grasp it. That’s about to change with this episode as we bring two experts on to discuss it, both of who are literally doing their Ph.D.’s on topics related to it. Landyn Hickmott, MS is a powerlifting coach, semi-pro hockey player, creator of RTS’s new velocity-based training course, and a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Saskatchewan. He joins Ivan Jukic, MS a strength and conditioning coach and Ph.D. candidate at Auckland University of Technology, actually studying under Eric, on iron culture today to talk through everything velocity based training from the concept, to how it works, it’s weaknesses, strengths, limitations, and unique applications like monitoring, feedback, and both load and volume auto regulation.

0:46.2	You know, it's like 8,000 pounds.
0:48.4	It costs several thousand dollars.
0:50.2	We will find a utility in today's discussion on VBT about the monolith. Before we do,
0:55.8	I do want to address very quickly, Eric, just one minor bit of controversy. And that is,

1:11.1	that, oh, because they're our contemporaries, they're also producing a podcast, that we may or may
1:17.7	have not called their podcast Stronger by Scientology, which to our understanding was just
