In this follow-up to Episode 27, Jacob and Quintin break down the deeper issue with modern “evidence-based” training systems.This episode explores how Renaissance Periodization’s reductionist, muscle-centric model overlooks the neurological, perceptual, and emotional systems that drive real athletic performance. From fascia to feedback loops, they explain why training needs to move beyond sets, reps, and spreadsheets — and into the realm of rhythm, adaptability, and dynamic control.⏱️ Chapters0:00 – Intro: why this episode continues the RP conversation5:45 – What “evidence-based” misses about the human system11:30 – Why muscle isolation breaks natural feedback loops18:05 – Perception and posture as the real performance variables25:10 – Nervous system fatigue vs. muscular fatigue31:55 – The illusion of scientific objectivity in S&C38:25 – Fascia, rhythm, and emotional context in movement45:40 – Training the system, not the parts52:00 – The future of athletic development🔗 Connect With Us🎧 Spotify: Nervous System Training Podcast📺 YouTube: Nervous System Training Podcast📸 Jacob (Host): @quality_values📸 Quintin (Co-Host): @quintin.torres36📌 Hashtags#NervousSystemTraining #RenaissancePeriodization #FunctionalTraining #SportsScience #AthleteDevelopment #NeuroscienceOfPerformance
