This is my issue with conservatives explained in a single video: They are COMPLETELY unable to practice any kind of empathy (neither cognitive nor emotional) with any out-group. Until they have first-hand experience with an issue, they cannot fathom that it even exists

I used to be a RPR hater. Now the results my kids are seeing since we started using it are pretty insane. Placebo or not, it works and I’m all in. Trying to learn all I can about it.

If you yell high knees at your athletes... #1. We are not friends. That's a bad cue and is emphasizing the wrong thing. You reflexively go up when you drive hard and down into the ground. #2. They don't own the position of a lunge. If you want that pretty 90/90 Hard Z position... Quit yelling, do more iso lunge holds.
Brandon Beery@NDominator

I know I sound like a lunatic with this stuff... But here's some of the questions I've been battling as I'm going through these workouts. - Do you own the position? I mean really. Do you say you own it but then when you actually try something it falls apart within 30s? That doesn't make you a bad person. It doesn't make you a failure. It doesn't mean you suck or you'll never be good enough. It's a really simple skill issue. Which should be fantastic news to every coach because our whole career is teaching new skills and making existing ones better. If you can't hold a lunge for 30s on each leg, I feel like getting to that baseline is more important than making you go run. Because if you can't hold yourself up for 30s in perfect position what makes me think you can hold yourself in any kind of good form while running? You're magically going to be coordinated now while you are moving?🤔 I don't think so. If you see something in practice that you don't like, are you going to blame that kid, their parents, their genetics, their effort, their potential, and their attitude? Or are you going to try to fix the problem? Oh that's right! That's our job as coaches! It can be an ankle problem, a collapsing foot/ navicular drop in gait, long backside mechanics with their hamstrings. I don't really care. Are you going to say it's fine that's just Sheila or that's just how Todd runs or are you going to get them to the point where they own the position? Shouldn't everyone on your team own the positions of human movement? At a bare minimum the positions of their sport? It's not complicated. It requires no weight room. It takes no time. It's something everyone should be able to do and if they can't that's their #1 priority before we make them try to do something they can't and put them in danger. It can be a lunge, a pushup, a standing glute ham, a scap pullups, a wallsit. We should own these for at least a minute right? 30s for sure. Isn't that the responsible thing to do? Make sure we can control ourselves for 30s? If we can't what makes us think we can go play sports and be safe let alone good...

Best advice I got in my 20s: Nobody cares. When you’re winning, nobody cares. When you’re losing, nobody cares. Stop fearing the judgement of people who were never even thinking about you. Nobody is thinking about you. They’re too busy thinking about themselves. Go do the thing.

Jay has an app so the daily workouts I'm doing here: theevocode.com I had learned about the extreme isos since ~ 2018 from Korfist and Dan Fichter but didn't really start to 'get it' until now. I heard about trying to get to 5 minutes per exercise etc. Adam Archuleta stuff etc. But going through YT and finding anything straight from Jay on his philosophy was part of the unlock for me (besides having a 15-20 minute suffer session now). There's some really nuanced nervous system things going on that I didn't understand. #1. Effect for me has been reduced back pain. That alone was worth it. I am capable of doing things and movements that I did not feel safe doing or comfortable doing without pain or hesitation 3 weeks ago. Period. That means I can show up in my business better. I can be more creative and think better. I can be more present in my family etc. For $10/month that's a no brainer. #2. The nervous system and I'd say life benefits are 1000x more interesting and impactful than any one exercise. Granted that's from listening to his interviews/podcasts to understand more not just from doing the workouts. There's some really fantastic one liners he's had that's "All I care about is helping people be the miracle they were born to be" "Get your brain to say AH. That's inappropriate. I need to change that." "Your brain won't allow you to do something you can't recover from." "Are you willing to continue to train at the level of your hardest workout?" #3. It made me go back and look at the way I'd programmed in the past and shake my head because it was always doomed to fail. This is the only program I've ever seen that is high load, high velocity, and high volume that you don't get hurt from. It SUCKS. IT IS PAINFUL. IT IS NOT FUN. IT IS HARD. But there's a reason for it. And I'd choose this version of hard vs suffering through another cycle of getting hurt, rehabbing back, and then getting better again. I can go back to many of my injuries and say yup. I never owned the position. So it was inevitable when I added movement and velocity and reps that something has to give.

I've been going down the Jay Schroeder rabbit hole the last two weeks and this quote sticks out to me: "Movement is the key to life. Velocity is the key to movement. Position is the key to velocity." "Absorb Force Create force Create Force quickly Create Force quickly many times." You have to own the position before you can move well in it. Then you need to own the movement before you can do it fast. Then you need to be able to do it fast before you can do it fast many times. Sounds simple, but walk in any gym and you'll see it backwards. Someone can't hold themselves in a lunge, but they want to run to the squat rack and throw on a bunch of plates... If you had them do an extreme iso lunge they can't hold it for 15s. It's just their bodyweight. But they don't own the position. Same deal if they did walking lunges for a minute. Their form would be bad, they'd be flopping all over the place, they'd be gassed, etc. They don't own the position. Why would they own it with movement? Does it take time to master positions? Yes. Do you only do isos? No. Is it worth it? After the last 14 days of Evocode workouts, absolutely.
