Great post! Huge fan of Charles, to the point that in 60 pages of notes I took on him and two other coaches, I realized how much of a game changer he is. Enjoy hearing about his work!
Nice tribute! I understand how others thought the $1000 was wasted, which you know now was a blessing! Similarly, I hosted Charles to do speed, power, strength seminar at my facility in No. VA back in 20002, which cost thousands of dollars, but what I learned and was apple to implement and charge professional athletes easily paid & profited my business! But thanks for the accurate vid!
You're very welcome J.E. Walker! Charles was a true legend. Also while you're at it, check out our RU-vid channel, we have heaps of great stuff which you may like too being a CP student.
Did you tried steak and nuts for breakfast and only do carbs when you are at 10% body fat? Did you also follow the endurance cardio is bad for you and only strength training rules them all? Thanks
what was the reason for his death? I didn't think that was released? and regardless of how he died, it's how he lived, he taught many, and many benefited. That's what's important. I'll quote Teddy Roosevelt: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again … who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly". Teddy Roosevelt
Heart attack I heard. I bet Charles would have asked the same question I juat did. Or if he didn't then he should have. He surely had an impact but if there was causation for his death then we need to learn from that too. If diet or supplementation were the causes then what exactly is his legacy?
@@rich24561 I've learnt what I've needed from Charles, and in the video, and I agree, some of the protocols were excessive. I touch on it in point 3. To review; 1. Tempos, 2. Screening, 3. Intro to functional medicine and using supplements related on blood work 4 BioSig 5. Money and wealth. The leader singer of Linkin Park committed suicide- this doesn't change the fact that he was an amazing singer and front man for a truly legendary band. Regardless of how Charles Poliquin died, he did WAY more good than harm for everyone in world of health fitness and performance. The man should be honoured, despite of any shortcomings.
Definitely a great strength coach just not a great supplement expert. Dead at 58. Dead people do not lie. I'll be studying the results of the autopsy once the family releases it to the public.
