Guest Podcast Just Fly Performance: Cal Dietz and Mike T Nelson on Training Neurology, Oscillatory Reps, and Triphasic II Concepts

I’m excited to join Joel Smith on the Just Fly Performance Podcast, alongside my co-author Cal Dietz from the University of Minnesota, to discuss our latest book, Triphasic Training II.

Cal’s groundbreaking work in athletic performance has been a game-changer for athletes and coaches around the world. Over the years since the original Triphasic Training, he has continued to innovate and refine methods that connect physiology and neurology to drive results. As a guest today, I bring my expertise in exercise physiology, neurological training, and metabolic flexibility to complement Cal’s deep understanding of athletic performance. Together, we’ll unpack the methods and science behind our latest work.

During the episode, Joel, Cal, and I dive into the evolution of Triphasic Training and its next iteration, exploring topics such as:

• Practical applications of neurological training concepts
• The development and impact of the GOAT drill
• Advancements in warmups and training integrations
• Strategies for building athletic capacity
• The role of oscillatory training in enhancing performance

This conversation is packed with actionable insights for athletes, coaches, and fitness enthusiasts who want to elevate their training and better understand the interconnected nature of human performance.

Tune in to the Just Fly Sports podcast to hear all the details, and let us know how these concepts resonate with your training approach.
