NSTP #27: Renaissance Periodization vs. Joel Seedman — A Nervous System Perspective

In this episode, Jacob and Quintin review the viral Renaissance Periodization critique of Joel Seedman, unpacking both sides of the argument through a nervous system lens.

Instead of focusing on who’s “right,” we explore what each system reveals about modern training — the contrast between reductionist biomechanics and dynamic, perception-driven movement.

From the science of reflexes and intent to the role of chaos and coordination, this conversation highlights how nervous system training reframes old debates in strength and conditioning.
