November 4, 2025
Isolating Muscles + Avoiding Injuries = Visible and Emotional Gains
INTERVIEW NOTES:
Moe Larbi is the author of Beyond Pickleball, Beyond Tennis, and Beyond Sets & Reps, and the creator of the Beyond Pickleball365 App.
He is also the founder of SmartTraining365, a science-based platform dedicated to optimizing resistance training through biomechanics and physics. Unlike traditional training methods that often lead to plateaus or joint stress, SmartTraining365 programs are built on 16 Bio-mechanical Factors — a unique system that helps individuals and trainers evaluate exercises logically to achieve maximum muscle stimulation, safety, and efficiency.
Moe's mission is to empower athletes, coaches, and fitness enthusiasts to train smarter, avoid injuries, and achieve long-term progress through biomechanics education, online certifications, and personalized programs.
