Dr. A’Naja Newsome, PhD is an educator, weightlifter, and weightlifting coach, and she has studied sports science and athlete psychology both inside and outside the gym. In this episode, we talk about weightlifting in particular: What are the factors that influence performance from within the athlete, and which external factors impact what and how they lift?

We do a deep dive that’s useful for all strength athletes hoping to reach that next level of performance and strength.
