Great, simple🧵 on VBT @MattRheaPhD. If you have a firm understanding of Ex Phys and training terminology, this is not a difficult concept to understand 🤷‍♂️. Power is necessary to initiate movement against heavy loads & strength is necessary for ⬆️ expression of power via RFD 🎤

[Matt Rhea, PhD @MattRheaPhD]

To all those suggesting that VBT will decrease strength…. First, VBT stands for “velocity-based training”. It involves ALL velocities, not just fast speeds. It involves a process where we prescribe a speed versus a % of 1RM.

@AdamArchuleta 👊

[Ian Bonder, PhD, CSCS,*D, RSCC @IBonderCSCS]

"Mental toughness" = Resilience/'Grit' = Psychological contrsuct

Conditioning = Energy Systems specific training = Physiological construct

The 2 concepts are very different. Glad to see @AdamArchuleta using his platform to bring practical awareness to this age old debate 👏🤝

[Adam Archuleta @AdamArchuleta]

Why does endurance low intensity "conditioning" always have to be equated with mental toughness training? Personally, I don't think conditioning work like this is a very efficient at building mental toughness at all.
I guess like most things, I have a different definition of what conditioning and mental toughness are than most.

I'm just not a believer in training my body to be more efficient at moving slower and less powerfully.

Nothing better than seeing someone put in the work and reap the rewards. Congratulations @BraylenwarrenQB 🥲 this was earned!

[Steven J Warren @Steve_Warren96]

Our family is beyond proud of this kid! It hasn’t been easy, lots of people and lots of writers that undervalued him, doubted the talent. We knew what it was and we always told him the work matters, and it will show up on the biggest stage. Good work B! #BrickbyBrick

This is not even remotely the intended purpose of micro-dosed programming. Micro-dosing should be used when traditional means of training aren't possible such as complications due to travel and competition in-season or during deployment for active military personnel.

[Sprint Science @spikesonly]

Microdosing training in the off-season? The field is now conquered by the lazy.

@Baghurst Speak to the parents using as simple language as is possible, don't try to prove how "smart" you are...if your services are worth it, the results will speak for themselves.
