New Blog: Why training power is DECREASING your power output wp.me/p38RiO-3E

@PaulBre80241140 @LFC_Carsten I should imagine it will be a very short book! 🤣

They seriously gonna release a book about Europe... you just can't make it up! 🤦‍♂️😂

@fact_covid Do you have any comparison of data on how cases/ deaths have changed from the first easing of restrictions on March 8th to this easing on April 12th? Be interesting to see if/ how schools reopening and more outdoor contact may have changed anything?

Today’s 2,589 reported cases figure is 24.4% down on last week (3,423). That’s the lowest Saturday since 5 September (1,813). Latest seven-day averages: Today: 2,710 Yesterday: 2,829 (-4.2%) A week ago: 3,987 (-32.0%) 9 Jan peak: 59,660 (-95.5%)

@kaneum1 @SarahJEdmonds @_ukactive Or you could use the Track and Trace data from UK Gov that ranked gyms as the safest setting in the UK for transmission

@SarahJEdmonds @_ukactive I’ve seen it. It was voluntary reporting of cases by select institutions paid for by “Exerp, ExorLive, Life Fitness, Matrix, Myzone and Technogym.” And it’s not published till next month.

In response to a recent Parliamentary petition, UK Government have confirmed that gyms will not automatically shut as part of any future #COVID19 lockdown measures. leisureopportunities.co.uk/news/UK-Govern…

Please give @PlatformPerform a follow to see the work we do within Professional and amateur boxing 💪

The clients results are most applicable rather than a mean of random people elsewhere in the world

Even within studies there is a range of results with mean reported- your client might just be the outlier

If science tells you one thing but your client shows you something else then you need to listen to your client and how they have developed

IJSPP: Maintenance of Velocity and Power With Cluster Sets During High-Volume Back Squats bit.ly/2fGzaMl @DocSoph @Doc_Haff & more

Jump height is a limited metric...determining an athlete's kinetic/kinematic strategy to achieve said jump height is far more informative.

Some great testing yesterday at Chester University to assess punch force 👊nice left hook if I do say so myself! 😉

Looking for more participants if anybody wants to take part - just get in touch!

We've recently found that timing gates can serve as a useful method of standardising squat depth during 1RM testing (i.e. squat to the beep)

More evidence that strength is important for a variety of events...not surprising. Get stronger! x.com/jbiomech/statu…

It's great getting an athlete to be able to lift heavy but it's even better getting them to tolerate heavy training load #LiftHeavyLiftOften

@close_nutrition caffeine on an event day for me would = wayyyy to much stimulation!

@close_nutrition whenever I have competed (boxing) always used caffeine for training, never events, if needed for an event somethings wrong!

@DsyMkn @Jackhammer_Sean fair enough, out of curiosity, did you speak out with recent cricket, football or formula 1 tragedies? If not, why?

@Jackhammer_Sean @DsyMkn Social + environmental benefits of Boxing are enormous. So many lives saved through boxing. I'll finish with this..

@Jackhammer_Sean @DsyMkn for football, cricket, Rugby, formula 1 etc when tragedies happen in them sports
