"I have a feeling that if Calvert were alive today, most still wouldn’t know about him."

I have long held that the strongest man in the world is someone we've never heard of. He's just quietly lifting in his shed in winter in Minnesotta or Siberia, he's never competed and doesn't even know he's strong.

The same goes for the strongest woman in the world.

I think it is good to educate yourself about the changes but there is too much noise out there. I had to unsubscribe from some YouTube channels on training because the amount of the content coming out was overwhelming. If I had to watch all of them I’d be spending hours on just watching. Then absorbing the info would just make my mind blow 😂 that’s why I prefer to “keep it simple”.

There is a lot of content out there for sure! I have the same problem, but one thing I've learned is none of us are really presenting any new ideas. Just stuff that's already been discovered packaged in a new way!🤣

The tripod warriors comment was hilarious haha.

For double progression method, recommending hitting 2-3x/week?

Thanks! Calvert mostly recommends training the whole body every other day, M/W/F/Su/Tu/Th/Sa etc. Or just 3x per week for most. You could use the progression for any split really.
