Distilling more accurate phraseology.

By Eric Bugera

  • There is a difference between redundant redefinitions and an appropriate refining of common phrases.
  • More specific language helps with rapid comprehension and application.
  • Overstimulus encompasses load and all other possible variables to drive stimulation without subconsciously biasing specific stimuli.

 

New Word, Same Meaning, Faster Comprehension

In the world of social media “education”, buzz words develop faster than most can (or care to) keep up. There is a big difference between refining an understanding or description of a phenomenon and simply rebranding an existing premise. 

The social media landscape shifts every few months and new talking heads emerge with seemingly revolutionary sound bites. Most will fail under scrutiny because they are attempting to sneak one past the guard and lord some form of intellectual superiority over the masses by...

DIAL IT IN: TRAINING WON"T ALWAYS BE IDEAL

Jan 19, 2023

By Eric Bugera

  • Training is unfortunately not the only factor influencing your gains.
  • Acknowledging training, nutrition, sleep, and stress as intertwined influences helps guarantee greater progress over time.
  • Set up a lifestyle that supports your recovery just as much as training.

Main Character Syndrome

It’s common to view oneself as the outlier.
