@ChadButcher692 @ZacGoodman_ But when the Tier system is conjugate. It’s not Westside, but it’s a conjugate system. It’s based on max effort, dynamic effort and repetition effort methods within the tiers

@SHREDmillSpeed Mechanical Interventions

Gear 2 vs Gear 3 Wall Drills

Figured I’d throw this video up there that shows how you can use wall drills, and “individualize” them to fit an athlete’s mechanics, as well as maybe use them to help attack a certain athlete’s individual weakness (ex: form deficient athletes utilizing more gear 3 wall drills between gear 3 reps if they are having a hard time hitting good positions).

@Tony_Villani_ can add way more knowledge/input on this, but I saw how we utilized these between sets of shredmill down at XPE, and have had a lot of success using it with my high school and college athletes up here in Chicago since!

@krassenstein What? He performed the movement exactly how it’s supposed to be done.
Not only is it clear you never served, you also clearly never participated any athletics whatsoever. Maybe stick to what you know

@Ferbin08 @EricLDaugh There’s a reason for the Rolex. It has special significance when serving overseas

I’ve been working with and around high school for a few years now. One things is clear, being a high school is THE WORST environment for peak performance.

Between school & club. Coaches that don’t know what they’re doing and GRINDING them into the ground. Private trainers teaching nonsense….

They don’t eat or sleep enough. Get insane pressure from their OWN FAMILY about getting a scholarship offers….

It’s no wonder we see all these soft soft tissue injuries year round. Let alone perfecting combine style training for testing!

@FrankenforIowa @BuzzPatterson @CynicalPublius Wow! You are such a douche donkey! You are the exact reason top enlisted hate officers

Mat Best - Folded Flag (Official Music Video)

This song was written for the men and women who stepped into the fire for this country and never made it home, and for the families, friends, and brothers left carrying their memory forward.

Memorial Day isn’t just a long weekend. Behind every folded flag is a name, a story, and a sacrifice that built the freedom we live in every day.

This song proudly supports the Major Brent Taylor Foundation and the Gold Star families it supports.

@NBCNews This has to be one of the dumbest things I’ve read on the internet.

@TheDemocrats No this decision upholds what the people voted for a few years ago. An independent agency does the redistricting! This decision allows VA residents to KEEP their voices. The state is proportional represented!
Maybe stop violating the state constitution.

@ZacGoodman_ I was going to ask if you tweak the wave based on the lift, since you had several cycles in the bench manual. We are on a very similar page with our training setups. adjusting into BMT soon. Will be getting the jump manual to support your content. Thanks Zac for info you put out!

@DanHollaway @CandiceHollaway So much for not adding or subtracting from the population 😜. Congratulations!
