What does it actually mean to be strong?
In this episode of The Move Better Podcast, I’m joined by TACFIT Master Instructor and BJJ black belt Robert Miller to explore why traditional strength training alone may not be enough if your goal is to move well, perform better and stay physically capable for life.
We discuss how Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu changed Robert’s approach to strength and conditioning, why rotation and multidirectional movement matter, and how tools like clubbells, kettlebells and maces can develop qualities that conventional gym training often misses.
We also get into:
• Why being strong in the gym doesn’t necessarily mean you’re physically capable
• What BJJ taught Robert about real-world strength
• Clubbells, kettlebells and reactive strength
• Strength versus mobility
• Why movement variety matters
• Training the nervous system, coordination and timing
• Why constantly chasing heavier weights can become counterproductive
• The TACFIT wave approach to intensity and recovery
• How often you actually need to train
• Why short, focused sessions can be enough
• Training for longevity rather than just numbers
• Staying capable as you get older
• Why the ultimate goal should be to “die healthy”
