Summary
Today we're giving you a throw back, going back over 100 episodes to pull out one of my favorite podcasts to date - also one of the most informative. In this episode, we have Renaissance Periodization's very own, Dr. James Hoffmann. James is the lead author in the book "Recovering From Training" which is by far the most comprehensive and straight forward guide on recovering.
In this podcast, you'll hear us go into each and every chapter of the book - covering the hierarchy of recovery, so that you can make the most out of your training. Follow James on instagram @rpdrjames

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Boom Boom Performance Podcast, your resource for science-based training and nutrition, |
| 0:07.2 | data-driven coaching, and education-focused content. Before we get into this podcast, I just want to say |
| 0:12.9 | thank you for taking the time to listen and learn with me so that you can apply what you are |
| 0:17.8 | about to learn, take my strategies, use these tools, and finally have |
| 0:21.8 | some serious methods to see sustainable success with your physique, your mind, and your life. |
| 0:28.2 | This podcast was built on the foundation of applied education, and I'm excited for you to be here |
| 0:34.1 | so you can have that experience with me. Now, without any further ado, let's get on to the show. |
| 0:48.8 | Today, we have a throwback episode. |
| 0:51.9 | So recently I was listening to, I actually think it was short story long. |
| 0:56.3 | So shout out to drama, but he did a throwback episode. And it was an episode that kind of got |
| 1:01.5 | swept on the rug for me. I never had listened to it. Just I was busy or something happened. |
| 1:07.7 | Regardless, I didn't hear the episode. I didn't even notice it was uploaded actually. And it ended up being one of my favorite episodes of all time. So he apologized |
| 1:15.7 | for doing a throwback, but he wanted to bring back an episode or something along those lines. |
| 1:19.2 | And I absolutely love the interview. And it was one of my favorites that he has done to date. |
| 1:24.5 | So because of that, I have been thinking about doing a throwback episode, but we |
| 1:30.0 | have so much content coming out that hasn't really been a good opportunity to do so. However, |
| 1:34.1 | we are having to reschedule some of the interviews we have been doing lately. And I had a conversation |
| 1:38.9 | recently around recovery. And it made me think of one of my favorite episodes that I have ever |
| 1:43.1 | done on the podcast, also one of the most informative episodes by far that I've ever done. |
| 1:48.3 | And that is with Dr. James Hoffman of Renaissance periodization. |
| 1:52.0 | So we have a ton of new subscribers listening constantly to this podcast, which I'm so grateful for. |
