Means a lot! Wana be an Olympic champ? Use plyos! Wana change the way a sport is done? Be like OG Fosbury, use plyos!

HOW BIG IS YOUR PLYOMETRIC HEAT MAP? This was a concept brought up by @McInnesWatson regarding PLYOMETRICS and how many programs are leaving valuable benefits on the table by staying stationary. Watch the full Plyo Session below: youtu.be/-03ZfiN2Vnw

More like low jumping, but it’s a start! Fun one out in the sun, fairly pleased with the short sprints today. 5x 5+10yd flys and 3 x 10+10 yd flys @mcinneswatson

@SHREDmillSpeed @spikesonly @carvperformance I don't care what it looks like lol. If it's like your shredmill I know it's going to 🔥

@spikesonly @McInnesWatson @carvperformance There is space for everybody and what works best for coaches and their athletes is what we all want. It does look like a mailbox now that we look at it like that. #USPS through rain, sleet or snow

Coaches and trainers will be shocked with the price we will sell this resisted running device for with amazing data and already developed Mobile Ap. We have always tried to give more and more for less instead of keep adding "add on" pricing. WE. UNDERSTAND. COACHES.

@spikesonly @SHREDmillSpeed @carvperformance Sounds bitter lol

@SHREDmillSpeed @carvperformance Looks like a mailbox….

@basehead @SBakerMD Shit take. Just appreciate it

@SBakerMD i mean it’s probably just someone who was a high level sprinter in their young days and he’s fallen off to a level that’s less than an average person would… most people could never do this no matter how much they trained at 81

This is absolutely inspiring! 81 years old, 29 sec 200m sprint!

Why prolonged time off is dangerous to the body’s structures. Clip from tendon podcast with @McInnesWatson: jackedathlete.com/podcast-123-te…

Tendinopathy is more than just an overload injury. It behaves like a disease process via a cascade of mechanical, metabolic, vascular & neural changes -locking the tendon in a degenerative loop when it becomes chronic. Here is how I make sense of it with ref to the Achilles 🧬

@lahti_johan @EamonnFlanagan Just saw this apologies. I think DRI has great legs init. We have to consider whats creating our RSI. Incoming fall height/velocity is our determinent of truly how reactive we are for utility of momentum.

@EamonnFlanagan Yes and unilateral seems to be also correlated to acceleration sometimes, likely again due to more force oriented. By the way Eamonn whats your thoughts on this DRI vs RSI discussion eu-opensci.org/index.php/spor… ?

Reactive Strength Testing: What test is best? Many ask: Should I use Drop Jump (DJ) or 10-5 Rebound Jump test (10-5 RJT)? Like most things: it depends. Both have different benefits & present diff. opportunities in testing & monitoring Read on for breakdown of the tests 👇

@lahti_johan Hi Johan, I've only skim read that article. Its on reading list. I like idea of a RSI metric integrating "dropping height" and factoring that in. Makes intuitive sense. @McInnesWatson has spoken about this. The "integral" RSI also tries to do this x.com/EamonnFlanagan…

@EamonnFlanagan @lahti_johan Thanks Eamonn. Check out @lancebrooks_phd new DRI metric. Study is linked below. But takes into consideration some critical points for assessing true reactive strength eu-opensci.org/index.php/spor…

The most common question I get is regarding plyometric programming for T&F jumpers. It is always a difficult question to answer as it has to take into account the entire program. Programming plyometrics require more precision than anything else.

@reEVOLUTIONath Although it completely fools my eyes. When he slows it down we can all see it’s just a bound 😉

@McInnesWatson, we have another plyo to name…

Did you know every Plyomat purchase comes with full access to the Jump Mat Course? It’s the only course ever built specifically for switch-mat tech, created by Teofe Ziemnicki (former Director of Sports Science & Data Analytics at Yale) who is the current Head of Sport Science for TeamBuildr. The course breaks down how to use jump mats at every level: from basic testing to plyometric progressions and multi-step RSI work. Over 2.5 hours of teaching that actually helps you develop your athletes. If you’ve been wanting to understand jump testing, plyometric strategy, or how to make contact-time data part of your training system… it’s all included for free with your Plyomat. If you are wanting to purchase this course separately, click the link here: teambuildr.pulse.ly/rz70ldtjuw

It has been decided! Hop - unilateral Bound - alternating Leap - bilateral Skip - hop/step Gallop - step/bound

@spikesonly @reEVOLUTIONath You’ll come to like it. Jumps then can be related to specific takeoffs

@reEVOLUTIONath I don't like Leap....

@reEVOLUTIONath Or step bound as the 1-2 is short and the 2 back to the 1 is long?

@McInnesWatson May gallop would be better as “bound step?”

Hop - unilateral Bound - alternating Leap - bilateral Skip - hop/step Gallop - asymmetric bound *working on the description of gallop, as I think there are asymmetric bounds that look like bounds
