@lahti_johan@coachgambetta 1) the article I posted was on sprinting and not distance running.
2) read the last sentence of the article you posted. It matches exactly what I was getting at in my first post.
3) your article focuses on "hip dominant exercises" and not making running hip dominant.
@coachgambetta@lahti_johan Here's my point as far as running goes: https://t.co/MyFGNQXUS2. These were measured during sprinting too. Notice the glutes don't get as much work as you'd think.
@lahti_johan@coachgambetta I guess I'm saying what does hip dominance and knee dominance actually mean? Unless this soccer player is running around sideways the whole time or lunging down the field, there will always be a knee dominance anyway.
@lahti_johan@coachgambetta Sure you can influence it with training but that doesn't mean it's more effective nor does it mean the person will have fewer injuries...just different injuries instead.
@lahti_johan@coachgambetta Unload the joint by slowing the impact (jogging vs sprinting). A "knee dominant movement" is what it is unless you're trying to change the rate it is loaded or the angle. People have different lever lengths. Simple exercises won't change those things.
@EastvaleCycling@NBTiller@TStellingwerff People will try it...that's the problem. I've already read a few people defending "hydrogen peroxide therapy." This guy needs a script.
@Doc_Haff@coachgambetta @Stuart_Guppy @UKSCA @ClaireJBrady @PaulComfort1975 I read through exactly 7 papers and all they say is it "correlates" to certain sports like football as one of the papers states. Does that mean it makes them a better player the better they test at the IMTP? Not at all.
@Doc_Haff @Stuart_Guppy @coachgambetta@UKSCA @ClaireJBrady @PaulComfort1975 Give a real world example for an NFL football player. Did it make them better by improving it? That is incredibly hard to determine.
@Doc_Haff @Stuart_Guppy @coachgambetta@UKSCA @ClaireJBrady @PaulComfort1975 This is very general. Most activities are dynamic. Zoom out and give specifics. Does this make someone better at their activities or is their activity making them better at the test?
@Stuart_Guppy @Doc_Haff@coachgambetta@UKSCA @ClaireJBrady @PaulComfort1975 If it doesn't measure sprinting or acceleration and only isometrics, then it's only useful for....isometrics??
@Doc_Haff@coachgambetta@UKSCA @Stuart_Guppy @ClaireJBrady @PaulComfort1975 That's why I said VO2max. It's a test but outside a lab who cares? People have been performing great without this test for a long long time...useful for what?
@coachgambetta@UKSCA @Stuart_Guppy @ClaireJBrady @PaulComfort1975@Doc_Haff@coachgambetta is right, this is fairly useless and says nothing about sprint speed, power in a game, etc. It's like the VO2 max test. Interesting number to know but might as well just go race and that tells you everything you need to know.
supercomputers really are just as powerless as humans at predicting injuries based on running form...maybe we [need] to stop arguing about footstrike and cadence and shank angle...and just agree to take a rest day every once in a while.@sweatscience#AMEN https://t.co/mdJMRA6pLy
