Show Outline

Joel is one of my favorite coaches in the business. Whether it’s his extensive knowledge of energy system training, or his preparation of elite mixed-martial artists, this guy knows his stuff!

In this interview, we cover the following:

• Joel’s general background, and how he got into strength and conditioning.
• How Joel originally got started working with mixed martial artists.
• The biggest mistake most fighters make when training in the weight room.
• Why many of us have energy system training all wrong, and why we need aerobic training.
• Why aerobic training does not necessarily equal long, slow duration training. We also discuss briefly the 8 different types of aerobic training.
• Heart rate variability, and how Joel’s BioForce software can help you customize and autoregulate your training.
• The final question – one big mistake Joel has made, and what he’s learned from it over the years.
