“You think to yourself that that person is the strong one. If he has time to ask me what’s going on with me, then surely he’s okay. But I’m old enough to know now that the strongest of us fight the biggest and the baddest and the most relentless demons.”
Ryan Clark@Realrclark25

3 Questions… “You good?, You ok? Do you need anything?” Those 3 questions haunt me. They’re the 3 questions Naeshell asked me the day before he took his own life. What I regret most is not asking him those same 3 questions after he asked me. @thepivot youtu.be/uTrGQZWeh7U

For an organization, group, department, etc. to drive progress and innovation, no idea or hypothesis should be above respectful scrutiny/testing and discourse. “Sacred cows make the best hamburgers.”

@ppeterson_ Oh yeah. And to your point, desktop I built was like 1k less than my work laptop but is the equivalent of a Formula F1 while my work laptop is a moped

Published today in @IJSPPjournal along with my great friends @IrineuLoturco and @lucasa_pereira (open access): a well - deserved tribute to the brilliant and visionary Juan José González- Badillo , the pioneer of velocity - based training ( VBT ) . We discuss the velocity zones

When we say "we need male role models for boys", we don't mean some millionaire celebrity actor, podcast bro, or politically sanitised version of masculinity... We mean teachers, dads, sports coaches, grandfathers, or just normal kind men. We mean this –

@Results_Period @RiccardoRambo @ADRCoachDev Yep. Real development just isn’t sexy. The way I describe it to athletes is “when a hurricane arrives, would you rather have a house on the hill made of stone or the flashy McMansion on the beach.” I personally would prefer the tested stone house and develop with a plan

@JoeD_Strength @RiccardoRambo @ADRCoachDev True! governed by SM. 1. Economics = selling methods based on myth vs reality. Run on this treadmill = gold standard is BS. 2. Copy & Paste training programs. 3. Most are coach centered vs. athlete centered. “Talent is the graveyard of evidence nobody sees the dead bodies”

@Results_Period @RiccardoRambo @ADRCoachDev The movement away from first principles to simply sets and reps goes along with the outcomes vs process issue. If periodization is dead, you don’t need to understand physiology and how to train for development. You can just do stuff and be justified

@JoeD_Strength @RiccardoRambo @ADRCoachDev That’s a great way to phrase it. 1 problem I see at youth/HS level is poor understanding of adaptations (even skill adaptations). So coaches talk about improvements in isolation (mostly MPH) and forget about other important physiological adaptations (cardiac, oxidative capacity

@Results_Period @RiccardoRambo @ADRCoachDev Part of it is the proliferation of misconceptions regarding periodization by those saying “it’s dead” or “it doesn’t exist.” Creates an outcomes vs process problem.

@JoeD_Strength @RiccardoRambo @ADRCoachDev They don’t. Most youth/HS coaches are fixated on MPH and doing 4 sprints per calendar 📅 and resting the remainder. So we’re getting education material out in the public which is built on myth. The athletes are the ones who are put at risk.

Basic difficulties with Force-Velocity-Power method for sprint acceleration include: 1) most of the ground force applied is ignored, 2) speed can increase when power decreases, 3) the F-V relation presented for running is opposite the simultaneous F-V activity in the muscles.

@SamLBecker25 @clh_strength No. None of them come into the course with any background, all sports science students. I teach them how to install R and R Studio. That’s why it’s a basic course and nothing fancy

Chat GPT is an absolute cheat code for strength coaches. If you’re not using it, you’re probably extremely inefficient with your time.

@SamLBecker25 @clh_strength But yes, mostly csv based. I’d like to get into database querying and API’s, things sports science use frequently, but that takes a fair amount of time, skill, education and desire to get there

@SamLBecker25 @clh_strength I use R. Cleaning, wrangling, and statistics. Basic tools in R for sports science, outside of shiny apps, building API’s, and querying db’s.

@SamLBecker25 @clh_strength I tell students not to rely on it for coding without understanding coding first. When it makes a mistake or misses nuance, you’ll have to correct it or make the adjustment yourself, even with good prompts.

@clh_strength True, but even when you clearly prompt it, it can still be unclear how it got to a certain result. Sometimes you miss insightful things about data if you just let chat GPT do it for you. It’s a “black box”, data goes in, data comes out, but you don’t know how it happened.

The @sprintcoachSWE video here shows VBT in the mullet years, clearly barbell tracking is older than most coaches today. My issue today is high school and team sport being reliant on devices to foster “intent” for effort rather than doing it right and managing people better.

I think this is what leads to a huge amount of confusion- practitioners don't seem to be able to discriminate external load-velocity/force- velocity r'ships & internal neuro-muscle-tendon functions. They're not 'surfing' any curves!
the strength report@ActivateGlutes

2/n But, this is force-plate data, not muscle force data and adaptation (in muscles) is driven by muscle forces (plus other muscle events) and neural adaptations are driven by the 'effort' we apply. The isokinetically derived F-V curve highlights some simplified concepts...

@MarkBennett07 This is not even the tip of the iceberg.Last time I was at the Russian University of Sport,the class about “Periodization” by leading teachers of the Sports Training Methodology Faculty,Sokorodumova and Zhiyyar,was so advanced that the majority of westerners can’t understand it.
