04:00 Why context and seeing the “big picture” matter
04:40 Labelling an exercise “bad”
06:00 Banded RDL Overview and Range of Motion vs RDL
09:49 Comparing Resistance Profiles and Physics of the Exercises
17:54 Determining Torque
20:58 Banded RDL vs 45˚ Hip Extension
27:51 Range of Motion & Resistance Profile comparison between 6 different hip extension focused exercises
33:38 Band vs Bar weight in a banded RDL
34:55 Why torque isn’t everything when evaluating an exercise
38:00 When to use a Banded RDL
43:14 Coach Cody answers: What is the difference between a Banded RDL and loading a hyperextension for glute engagement?
44:10 Coach Cody: When NOT to use a Banded RDL. Superset examples for more metabolic stimulus or extending work for the glutes throughout their full range of motion.
44:10 Coaches Adam, Cody, & Kassem: Value of a Banded RDL for teaching hip extension with a client
47:07 Coach Cody: How the band helps shift your execution focus
44:10 Coach Allen: Coaching experiences with different methods of teaching hip extension
53:00 Coach Kassem answers: If I can use more load in a regular RDL than a banded RDL, doesn’t that mean that I’m getting more work for the hamstrings in the lengthened position?
54:55 Coach Adam’s Response to: The banded RDL being a “waste of time”
55:55 Coach Kassem answers: If I don’t have a 45 degree extension, is a Banded RDL or Glute Bridge the better option?
57:52 Coach Allen answers: If you don’t have a rack to do banded RDLs in, is it ok as a trainer to just hold the band for the client?
58:58 Coach Cody answers: Once you learn the full movement of hip extension and flexion, would you eliminate the band completely?
59:31 Coach Kassem covers the value of having varying resistance profile options for different muscle groups in your program
1:01:51 Key Take Aways for the Banded RDL
1:04:28 Coach Adam rants on not spreading bad information
1:05:15 Coach Allen discusses the importance of avoiding absolutes and having an open mind to learn
1:07:44 Coach Kassem answers: Is the Pull-Through a good exercise for glutes? If not, why?
1:09:51 How do you know who and what to trust?
1:15:06 Coach Adam: You can’t base everything on just one course
1:16:26 Coach Allen: Taking a mature approach to learning and sharing information
1:20:03 Coach Cody: The use of social media as an educational platform
1:20:27 Coach Adam: What you don’t see or hear about on social media
1:21:41 Coach Kassem: The appropriate way to handle something you disagree with, when it is not appropriate to start a discussion on social media, and the importance of having a group of people you can talk to and discuss ideas with.

After taking our training analysis quiz, you’ll have a long-term plan constructed for you. Your plan will consist of several Phases. Each Phase will present you with a few suggested programs to pick from. Each time you complete a program, you’ll move on to the next Phase and a new set of programs to select from.
This allows flexibility in the split and type of program you can choose, while we strategically periodize the stimulus you’re getting to keep making consistent progress without neglecting any weak links.
For example, a long-term plan with the goal of muscle gain will still occasionally include systemic conditioning or dedicated local metabolic work to keep your recovery capacity high (so you can grow and perform better during your hypertrophy-focused programs).
