Today’s podcast features coach and educator, Jamie Smith. Jamie is the owner of Melbourne Strength Culture and has over a decade working in high-performance training. He has a variety of experiences in high-level strength and conditioning in both Australia and the United States and is heavily involved in the development and education for strength coaches. Jamie has a deep understanding of current biomechanical models and training frameworks, along with integration of “Bio Psycho Social” concepts for a complete training experience. Most methods focus on frameworks, technical models, sets, reps, and percentages. However, there’s little emphasis on the athlete’s subjective experience, which influences their results, learning, and enjoyment. In this episode, Jamie discusses building awareness and encouraging movement exploration to enhance athleticism. He emphasizes giving athletes ownership of their bodies and expands on the “bottom-up” training concepts from his last appearance, including the key “dials” of athlete experience. The show wraps up with his critique of conventional ideas of stability in athletic movement. This episode offers deep insights into human performance.

Like any of these objective things are just ways that we as coaches have tried to create a structure that we feel confident that we're doing the right job in and moving in the right direction." Jamie Smith "Everybody argues about the external load, everybody argues about how much volume, everybody argues about proximity to failure... However, once you actually deal with an athlete, it's the individual response to the training that actually matters and you have to be reactive to the individual response which is the psychological impact as well." - Jamie Smith “Just get them with the bar, put the bar on their chest and just move. Feel their scaps. Feel. All right, well, hang on. Maybe tuck the elbow, Change your head position, change your rib cage position." “All of a sudden they'll find a position. It's like, oh, I feel strong there. And that thing's gone. All right, let's do some reps there. Can you hold that shape? Can you feel that shape? Yeah, I can do it. And then all of a sudden it just becomes like a better painting of how they're moving rather than the coach coming in and just being like, your shoulder hurts because of X, Y and Z and you're missing this” - Jamie Smith “So, like, those explorations are huge. Go to the position you want to explore and just play around with stuff. Play around with foot pressure, shin position, hip position, pelvis, rib cage, whatever the exercise is.” - Jamie Smith “You start very isolated, you start quite a little slower, maybe on the ground and feeling certain things and then start to build them up and add speed,
