Most of my athletes always want to focus on strength workouts. I don’t obsess about them, but they will show me where I need to go. They will find weaknesses in me. They expose a weak link, and then I can isolate it, work on it, and then find a solution to it.
All these modifications are just ways to create that same failure pattern at a much lower weight. Modification sometimes will mask the problem. But, I will go light on the weight and work on the form or movement. This will allow me to confront the failure, to spend (in this case) a hundred times in a single workout learning to perform the movement better. In a series of 100, I will learn how to fight, to fire, and to win.
