In this powerhouse episode of the True Sports Physical Therapy Podcast, we sit down with Coach Jon Heck: former UNC football star and NFL strength coach turned entrepreneur and host of the Hammer and Chisel Podcast. Coach Heck shares deep insights on hypertrophy training, rehab strategies, exercise selection, and sports nutrition that apply to athletes of all levels, physical therapists, and strength coaches alike.
From optimizing quad hypertrophy post-ACL to creating effective warm-ups and supplement protocols, Coach Heck breaks down complex topics into digestible, actionable advice. He also dives into programming strategies, the value of progressive overload, machine-based training, and the pitfalls of overusing force plates in elite settings.
Whether you're a clinician, coach, or athlete looking to get stronger, faster, and more resilient, this episode is packed with practical gold.
