Miscellaneous


Do you want to simultaneously develop strength, hypertrophy, power, endurance, and movement in your training? Joining me on the show today is Chris Eldridge, a high-performance firefighter and client of Rebel Performance. Chris has competed in powerlifting, strongman, boxing, and rugby, and now finds himself in a career that requires all forms of fitness, firefighting. Chris joined the Rebel Performance Training Team back in January, and his training success has skyrocketed since. He’s now hitting PR numbers across the board in all aspects of strength, power, and endurance. He and I dive into what it means to be the total package and why it’s common to see athletes struggling to bring strength, endurance, power, and speed to the table at the same time. Chris shares a glimpse into his training background and the many wins since joining the team. We discuss single leg/arm work and its positive effect on performance and why it’s so important to have somebody else program for you, that way you aren’t overthinking and overlooking your least favorite exercises. Be sure to listen in to hear how we helped Chris unlock the true total package performance.
