ROBERT BEAN: POWERLIFTER AND STRENGTH COACH
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
YOU EXECUTE THE PLAN.
YOU SEND ME FEEDBACK.
I ASSESS YOUR FEEDBACK AND SEND YOU TOMORROW'S TRAINING PLAN.
THIS IS NOT A COOKIE-CUTTER ROUTINE. ADJUSTMENTS ARE MADE ON A DAILY BASIS BASED ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL RECOVERY AND ADAPTATIONS.
LET'S CUT THE BULLSHIT.
I OFFER COACHING BASED ON
THESE 5 PRINCIPALS:
NUTRITION - A LOT MORE THAN JUST MACROS. A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO HELP YOU PUT ON MUSCLE OR BURN FAT.
PROGRAMMING - PROGRAMS CUSTOMIZED FOR YOU THAT ARE BASED ON THE SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES OF STRENGTH TRAINING AND REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE.
SLEEP - DIRECTION FOR IMPROVING YOUR SLEEP QUALITY AND DURATION TO OPTIMIZE RECOVERY.
TECHNIQUE - ASSESSMENT AND CORRECTION TO MAXIMIZE FORCE TRANSFER INTO THE BAR.
SUPPLEMENTATION - THE CHERRY ON TOP. I CUT OUT THE CRAP AND TELL YOU WHAT'S ACTUALLY WORTH TAKING AND WHY.
YOU PAY $300 A MONTH AND I PROVIDE EVERYTHING LISTED ABOVE.
How to get stronger
#1: Training- You must consistently achieve progressive overload through proper programming and hard work. The best program is one tailored specifically for you as there are many variables that can affect your individual needs to a large extent.
#2: Nutrition- You can't build a house without bricks. IIFYM won't cut it. If you want to maximize your potential you need to consider all of the nutrients your body needs and plan accordingly so you can get them in when needed. Anyone can write you a diet but we focus on eating to maximize performance and tackling the logistical challenges presented by taking in massive amounts of food.
#3: Sleep/Recovery- This one is simple but crucially important. To maximize your performance under the bar you are going to NEED at least 8-10 hours of QUALITY sleep per night. The bigger and stronger the lifter the more sleep and general rest they will need.
#4: Technique- The biggest mistake I see in the many gyms I have trained at is people who do not pay attention to the quality of their movement. I see people loading maximal weight on the bar displaying dysfunctional movement patterns. This is why powerlifters get so many injuries. You need to make sure you are moving correctly to maximize your efficiency of force transfer to the bar and therefore increase your force output.
#5: Supplementation- This is the final pillar for a reason. The other four need to be mastered first in order to take full advantage of it. Supplementation is the final step needed to take your strength to the highest level possible.
