question from jasper cad lech 196 i'm sure i'm butchering that how do you deal with having coaches who do traditional lifting while on atg to be honest it's a really simple one we love coaches doing other movements while being on atg weightlifting powerlifting whatever it's going to be you know strong man for basketball for hockey it's for whatever you want it to be for that's what atg is meant to be it is this ultimate human foundation it only takes half an hour you don't have to go you know balls to wall with it you don't have to take it to a point of extreme fatigue it's meant to be a supplement it's not meant to be a sport it's a great foundation for crossfit it's a great foundation for whatever else you want to do so we highly encourage coaches to take on other aspects with it in saying that if you want to really focus on those numbers and just push them hard for a year or two that's probably a great idea as well you know if a lot of athletes took time out they took a year off from their sport and they just got themselves the point of being able to do you know martin saint louis to hitting all of the standards if they hit those mutton saint louis nordics you know if they're able to do poliquin step ups half body weight to the dense strength standard they're going to go back and they're going to feel much much better to be able to express their skills talents and abilities so it's undervalued the red shirt concept doesn't really exist in most sports the idea that exists in american colleges of like you're not going to play but we're going to develop you so that later you can play well most athletes actually never get that opportunity and they should and um yeah that's how i see the atg system so we we're happy for people to use it as a foundation for other things it's not really a standalone program but of course you can have fun using it that way and then just go play in the park whenever the opportunity arises
