🚨New article alert🚨

❓Unsure of which tests and measures to inform training?

📈Here we present the most comprehensive and rigorous framework to date on test measurement selection for athlete physical preparation.

In a 28mins episode we cover:

✅ A diver's yearly demands
✅ Spencer's macrocycle plans for diving physical preparation
✅ His microcycle design and tapering strategies (both simple and effective)
✅ A deep dive into actual session design
✅ The importance of medicine ball work for training transfer
✅ The use of contrast sets within high-volume training
✅ Velocity loss using VBT with subsequent training sessions in mind
✅ Jump profiling and its impact on session design

Our latest study showed that it takes ⬇️ time to recover from a session of ISO than heavy weights training. Hence, coaches may use ISO during periods of ⬆️ volume sports training or when closing in to the competition to minimise fatigue.

BIODEX (or Dynamometer users) - I’m reaching out about Hip Flexion / Extension assessments in lying supine position. I can only seem to achieve 70-80deg ROM due to limitations of seat position & padding attached to the dyno arm. Pic attached for ref (this is not total Ext range)

NO DOPPLER? NO PROBLEM! Here in a recent paper we propose that in cuffs between 9-13 cm, use of 1.3x brachial systolic BP is a decent surrogate for 100% LOP. bSBP can be used for ~80% LOP whereas 100 mmHg is around 60%.

Pallof Presses. Why use them with athletes? Sometimes I slip them into a program. But now simply ask why? In this article I try and answer a few of those questions. https://t.co/TpijhCYNAV

"Knowledge of the specific velocity characteristics of key strength exercises is vital for using velocity to predict 1RM based off sub-maximal loads or understanding how close to failure an athlete may be in a lift."
