Cam McEvoy ascended to a gold medal at the Olympics and now has broken the world record in 50m after controversially reducing his training volume by 90%. This completely bucked traditional swimming methods and he struggled to even find a coach willing to help him implement this idea. He studied the science of weight lifting and cycling, and decided traditional swimming training wasn't ideal for 50m event. I found this interesting and lends credit to some models people in the science based fitness community discuss. Namely that less volume, with more intensity, and focusing on rest/recovery, has its advantages.

“To maximize gains from long-term practice,” the study’s lead author, K. Anders Ericsson, concluded, “individuals must avoid exhaustion and must limit practice to an amount from which they can completely recover on a daily or weekly basis.” Never let today ruin tomorrow. #FTC

“I need you to lock in… I believe in you but you got to want this moment.“ Coach: Eye contact, reaffirming confidence while giving criticism Player: Eye contact, listening, responding This is some good coaching and credit to the player being coachable!

The argument of stronger = faster, has been a contentious subject for many years. Strength is good. Strength supplements speed. Strength gains can and will often improve speed. Sprinters lift. Sprinters typically have amazing-looking bodies. But stronger isn’t always faster. “The strongest are seldom the fastest. ~Boo Schexnayder Power lifters and bodybuilders are seldom the fastest guys on the track team. We learn by stories. ⤵️ When Covid shut everyone down, I had 8 fast sophomore track athletes who also played 🏈. These 8 guys found a gym and lifted like madmen. They had nothing else to do. They got super strong and posted flex-pics often. When things opened up a year later, one of the 8 was faster (slightly). 7 of 8 were slower by an average of one mph. They never got their speed back during their junior track season. None of the 7 ran track as seniors. They continued to play 🏈. Lifting in the absence of sprinting, jumping, bouncing, and throwing will often make athletes slower. Is that anti-strength? No. But, stronger ≠ faster. It’s more correct to say that athletes who get faster, get stronger. 🏋️‍♂️ Just because fast guys are strong doesn’t mean strong guys are fast. Sprint, lift, jump, bounce, throw… but make speed the priority.
