In this interview, Paul Comfort explains precisely how to use weightlifting at different times of the season, what exercises to use when, and how to create specific adaptations for your specific sport (other than weightlifting).
Dr Paul Comfort is a Professor of Strength and Conditioning and program leader for the MSc Strength and Conditioning at the University of Salford (Manchester, UK). Paul has experience across a range of sports and consults with numerous professional and semi-professional sports teams.
He has co-authored more than 150 journal articles along with numerous book chapters and is co-editor of the textbooks, ‘Advanced Strength and Conditioning: an evidence-based Approach’ and ‘Performance Assessment for Strength and Conditioning.’
I invited Paul because he led a group of experts to produce the NSCA position statement on using Olympic weightlifting for sports performance.
Enjoy!
