Pleasure to contribute a 2nd expert article to @SportsmithHQ - this time on muscle hypertrophy 💪🏋♀️
Ive been using partial ROM training for >15yrs. Believe me, if you think theyre about 'the stretch' or dividing ROMs randomly in half ... this is ❌️ 'real' partial ROM 🏋♀️

Instead of a eulogy I want this quoted when I die. It’s almost poetic!

The usual 'match day prep' we've seen develop over the years. Lots of tippy toes into a dramatic lunge. Towels wrapped around D-handles for cable rows? Why? Im never been sure what exactly all this is 'prepping' for? @SimonBrundish linkedin.com/posts/samuelwo…

@MattSinisc75247 @SimonBrundish ive seen this no matter where ive went in the world.

@MuscleMechsLab @SimonBrundish Nothing like teams that make top dollar get shit training

No record. The is a DQ.
The robot bonked and got assistance from the crowd. Sorry no exceptions to the rules for Mr. Robot.

This Chinese humanoid robot just shattered the world record for a half marathon, finishing in 50 min 26 sec. This video shows its crash just meters before the finish line where it had to be picked up by a team of humans. The robot is from Honor, the smartphone maker and Huawei spin-off. This robot was teleoperated while others were autonomous. It seems like all the robots had battery swaps along the way.

there's a lot to unpack in the paper but I gave my thoughts on this on a recent post on Instagram of anyone would like to check those out instagram.com/reel/DXMLjwbjj…

This pre-print of a paper caused quite a stir recently on social media. The authors suggest that 9 vs 36 fractional sets of 🏋♂️ produce equivalent hypertrophy 💪
However... how confident are we of these findings, particularly in relation to measures?... 1/

@SimonBrundish you mean a single leg cable paloff press into a side step chop isn't enough to protect the tissues from high level eccentric forces?

Curtis going off injured against Fulham was the 25th incident this season in which a Liverpool player has been subbed because of injury
13 last season
7 was the most during any Klopp season.....

Light aerobic training, done with proper sequencing and progressions, helps preserve and support power.
Focusing on bad programs that do too much of a good thing is just a bad argument.
Countless programs scoff at aerobic work to befriend athletes. We need to be honest here.

Spent ~20yrs researching 🏋♂️ for muscle hypertrophy. PhD & UG students researching it but none of us told @Schwarzenegger who inspired us is getting an hon PhD in our uni today 😔. Biggest legend in bodybuilding history. Arnie if you're interested in our work let me know 😄😉

@MattSinisc75247 @timkettenring ive heard the saying & I think ive seen a few coaches push it on SM. Is this for 🏈 specifically? Can you give me some examples of prescription. Is it as absloutist as sprinting only? Never actually seen how the whole 'feed the cats' thing is executed in practice
English
@timkettenring The fact that someone is convinced that if all you do is sprint work that it covers all your bases is hilarious and sad at same time

Stiffness & Running Performance
What i like about this... it explores how we move from stiffness at the tissue level to the limb level. This is so important to distinguish between what they mean for Performance and how we can manipulate them

Slightly more nuanced than this.
~12-14yrs don’t simply have “lower neural drive” across the board. Rather, they usually hav a reduced ceiling of voluntary activation & impaired hi thrshold MUs, often compensating at submax intensities thru ⬆️ firing rates of low-threshold MUs..
English
But subtle differences remain in how that pool is utilised—particularly in the recruitment and rate coding of high-threshold MUs suggesting that the limitation is no longer one of capacity, but more coordination and optimisation under high-force conditions.
English
Net effect = system that is biased toward low-force, fatigue-resistant output, but a bit more limited in producing high force / rapid contractions.
At 15-18 theres a bit of a transition towards adult-like function. VA ⬆️ showing access the motor unit pool is mostly established..
