I’m looking into adding a yielding isometric training day to my weekly routine. The idea is to accumulate around 3 minutes of total hold time per exercise, including push-up holds, lunge holds, inverted row holds, and some form of isometric work for the hamstrings and glutes. My main goals are to improve mobility through loaded stretching, strengthen my tendons, and support long-term joint health and resilience. I currently do two full-body strength workouts per week (circuit-style) and two intense boxing sessions. I’m trying to figure out the best way to fit this additional session into my schedule without compromising recovery or performance. Would it be better to do the isometric workout 8–10 hours before boxing, or immediately after a boxing session?

I have lots of experience training young kids. In fact I started out working with figure skaters from 8-17 years old and football/hockey players in the 13-18 range, I've also been training my son Jayden since he was 4 (he is 8 now) and he power cleans 1.25x body weight, benches and front squat 1.5x bodyweight, deadlifts 2x bodyweight and is in the 99% percentile on the vertical jump FOR A 12 YEARS OLD (he just turned 8). And I recently started training my daughter Madyson (5). My question is, would you be interested in a course and guide on how to train kids?
