If a linebacker or linemen in high school squats 500lb does that make him a better player? 🤔
Not directly. But the workload needed to achieve that will probably allow him outperform his opponent.
Greater force production and work capacity assists in performance. 💥💥
Hands, wrists, forearms, shoulders, feet, ankles, calves
… are the WHEELS
Trunk, abs, deep abs, spinal muscles, glutes, hip flexors, hip extensors, upper back, lower back
… are the ENGINE
Cheap wheels can’t support a powerful engine.
Thanks for the insight @DrTommyJohnDC

SAID Principle and Training
Specific
Adaptation to
Imposed
Demand
The body will conform to whatever environment you provide it.
Heavy weights, quick movements, and muscular conditioning seem to be the best way to achieve peak athletic performance. 💥
You become your habits❗️
- Athletic performance
- Strength development
- Muscular hypertrophy…
all require the proper signaling for growth and change.
Once the body is exposed to
- higher velocities
- larger amounts of force
- longer time under tension…
The body will be on its way for adaptation
When dealing with health…
We just need enough stimulation to trigger the pathways. Apply this with:
- muscle growth 💪🏼
- nutrient consumption🥩
- sleep💤
- sunlight☀️
- hydration🧂
Too little or too much causes dysfunction
Give the body what it needs, and let it do the rest.
What does it take to live a genuine, truthful, honest, healthy life? The 8 essentials take all aspects of life into consideration. If one piece is missing, it will show up as a symptom, sickness, relationship issue, injury, or some other sort of health problem. Be consistent.
Baseball players should bench press.
Throwing a baseball at a high velocity requires a large amount of force especially in the connective tissue around the shoulder.
3x10 banded rehab is not enough.
Give your body the stimulus it needs to adapt and grow. #HorsePower

Pause Box Squats
- Concentric lower body strength
- 14 inch box to increase hip mobility
- Generating power without momentum
No special exercise or training program creates success. However, consistently mastering the basics does.
Upper Body Isometrics
@MHS_BroncoBSBL utilizes upper body isos for a wide array of reasons to improve performance on the field
- increased motor unit recruitment
- connective tissue strengthening
- muscle endurance
- neurological development
- improved motor patterning
