When you’re performing your lifts are you properly firing the muscles involved so you obtain optimal gains?
Are you lifting and performing movements to train your body to be stronger and more resistant to injury?
When performing a movement are you establishing complete control over that movement for optimal function?

I always I like to try to leave an impression on new trainees when it comes to teaching them strength. One thing that I’ve found that surprises people and raises a few eyebrows is when I talk about the irradiation principle.

Are You Applying The SAID Principle To Meet Your Training Needs?

Have you structured your training so that you will achieve a specific goal?
Is your physical training set up to help you improve on a specific skill, or task?
Are you blindly moving along with your workouts without any defined purpose?

Old habits die hard. I’ve often seen the confusion in people’s eyes and heard the frustration regarding them lacking in getting training results.

The frustration is real and they believe there is no answer to them getting any real results from their training. The thing is that many people convince themselves of this because they stay closed off and haven’t even exposed themselves to other ideas and other methods.

So it’s no wonder they feel frustrated. This happens at every level from beginner to competing athlete. One reason for this is that often times people fail to apply the SAID principle to their own circumstances when pursuing their physical goals.
