🏋️‍♀️ Extended version of this interview: https://www.patreon.com/posts/assessing-for-in-114390434 🏋️‍♀️

What if I tell you that you can measure in real-time how fatigued your lifter is getting with their training? And then use this knowledge to adjust (or not) their training plan for the next week. Paulo Antunes has just published a study that proves it's possible.

Paulo is a former coach of the national Portuguese weightlifting team, a college professor, and a weightlifting teacher. He is also currently doing this PhD in training control.

Enjoy!
