    This was one of the hardest things for me to get used to. Go to any gym or trainer, and they'll have you rushing into set after set instead of full recovery. Most people train sub-max conditioning, few train max speed or acceleration, and remain slow.

      Most overtrain and get injured. At my former club athletes under 20 were already dealing with chronich hamstring issues. There is lot of research about hamstring injury risks, most of the studies point at sprinting up till 800 meters in total per week, will decrease hamstring risk, above that, it only increases.

      if you are doing an explosive concetric followed by a 5-10 second eccentric you should be fatiguing the muscles much faster and producing better muscle growth AND strength. concetric only is absolutely uselsss, the lowering part is where the muscles work the hardest

    Those deadlifts you showed McCaffrey doing train your nervous system to use two legs at the same time like a bunny hop. Single leg or b-stance deads, one foot slightly in front of the other, are best for sports. We run using one leg at a time, left, right, left, right.

      Basketball players need endurance. This video is for football players only. Football is the only sport where you play for 5 second intervals and walk back to a huddle before starting over. A five yard rushing play in football is about 3 seconds. Every other sport you play much longer times. If you're training for 3 second bursts only, you won't last in basketball.

      O-1 lactate workouts (usually zero) per week off season.

      Speed is king and lactate work does NOT improve speed.

      @@zber9043 yea the idea is that the elastic properties of muscle and connective tissue can generate a tremendous amount of force, but only for about .1 seconds. So for their lifts, they emphasize time to peak velocity rather than bar speed or power. Anything over .18 time to peak velocity is too slow, resulting in their decreasing either load or ROM. Their sprinters will do drop quarter squats with 2.7-3x body weight and TPV

      Nordic was in style about 5 to 10 years ago. The NFL blamed it for hamstring injuries. The device made its way into every NFL training facility and the guys were still getting hamstring injuries . Pushing the prowler remains popular because it's very concentric.

    Indeed it's the fast Concentric what the elites do so well.
    eccentrics does not make one a better. they often lead to a decrease in performance!
    Fast twich muscles are best trained with fast concentric movements!
    Eccentric training especially slow controlled does NOT stimulate fast twich MUs!
    Sprinting fast and jumping high requires fast/powerfull concentric strength! Eccentric training will not help without the concentric.
    In elite athletes during the landing/amortisation phase their muscles do NOT contract eccentric but rahter isometric or concentric!
    The best thing is that fast concentric training will NOT destroy the muscles like fast eccentric training. Fast conenctric can even improve recovery!
    Concentric training mostly works the CNS. So very low volume, max intent and moderate frequency is optimal.
    Classic strength training with mass (gravity resistance) is NOT optimal. The best an most natural resistance would be inertial resistance.
    Inertial resistance works via acceleration not gravity. So the resistance increases with the intent to accelerate wich is exactly what athetes want!

    Eccentric is just as important as concentric. I’m pretty sure hamstring strains happens often in sprinting when the hamstring is at lengthen phase of the running gait cycle. So it’s not just concentric thats important. How you gonna mitigate the risk of hamstring strain when you don’t have strength at the lengthened position at a rapid pace then? By doing eccentric lifting on the hamstring. Biomechanics disagrees with you. Just ask any top biomechanist that works with elite level athletes

    • @coachtonyholler
      @coachtonyholler  Před 28 dny

      Lifting does not bulletproof the hamstrings.
      Lifting, in the absence of sprinting, increases the chance of hamstring injuries.
