great episode, really enjoyed it. Seems much more legit than steve maxwell and mike dolce
I know this is an old podcast and Joe doesn't read these, but Frankie Edgar's strength and conditioning coach is a guy named Brian Blue here in NJ
What's interesting is the point that elastic strength (via tendons/fascia and nerves) is at least as important as pure muscular strength. This is already well known in modern exercise physiology and the martial arts, but Curson articulates it well to a wider audience.
Hmm, what he says is quite interesting. I wonder how Greg Jackson does things compared to him?
man after an hour of listening, the only interesting parts are when they talk about the fights and that is Rogan on the lead
this guy is your textbook bullshitter who loves to name drop and plug himself and his products in whenever he can
"im a black belt in bjj"…
"i knew nick diaz would be a great UFC fighter before he was in the UFC and before he was even a black belt"
"ive trained with X and Y"
"i predicted EXACTLY how the Provodnikov fight would go" (wait hold on a second, you're telling me you predicted your client would lose? Good coach you are…)
"no dont watch that video, watch my companys video…"
"i can make your flat feet have a normal arch Joe" (and then when Joe asks how he goes on a tangent about calf raising on your toes, very unrelated to what Joe asked)
