James DeLacy shares his expertise on strength training for parents and athletes, revealing why less can sometimes mean more when it comes to building strength.

• Father of two young children who fits training around family life in his garage gym
• Acquired the Lift Big Eat Big brand in 2021 to deliver quality strength programming
• Advocates stopping sets 2-4 reps short of failure for optimal strength gains
• Explains velocity-based training where 20-30% velocity loss leads to better strength results than training to failure
• Recommends consistency with even minimal workouts rather than skipping when you can't do everything
• Emphasizes technique development over adding weight, especially for beginners
• Creates programs with ranges to allow for auto-regulation based on how you feel each day
• Suggests variety in training to prevent injuries, particularly for older lifters
