@StrengthDebates Nah mate. Put them in soccer and they’d look like headless chickens. And soccer players wouldn’t be able to hit the ball in baseball. Likewise for any sport with unique skill components. You get good at what you practice. At the pro level, every athlete is a specialist in a way.

@belinda_crites @kuijsters_tim It will shift hydration throughout the discs so it may give a feeling of loosening up if you’re stiff. But in your case, a long term plan might be needed. Try a sports physio, since they’re jobs require them to get broken athletes back into sport, they’ll likely cover more bases.

@chriswoods @Back_Pain_Coach @Conor_Harris_ I just googled these and found RCTs and further reviews on RCTs. Usually standards if care do have rigorous testing involved prior to becoming the standard.

@jkellyAT @Back_Pain_Coach @Conor_Harris_ Science hasn’t even found the actual knots to exist. Trigger point theory hasn’t been validated. Same with anything “myofascial”. The honest wording would’ve been- if you have tight fibres, stretch the area for local eccentric tension, breathe to relax. Eases the neural tone.

@charles______9 @fritdog23 @Conor_Harris_ How can you say they’re real when you can’t define them literally?

@mboyle1959 @jake_tuura Any blog/podcast on your full context? Different saying: axial loading inherently cripples you later. Vs chronic OVERUSE leads to issues down the line. The former blames the exercise itself, while the latter blames load management. I’ve only seen others react out of context.

@IsraelHands8 @_shaw32 @daveatherton @AndrewPMunro @Arsenal Continued daily aggression and illegal occupation since 1948 would suggest otherwise, mate. The chant means to free Palestine as per the official borders, and to stop the illegal occupation. Nothing to do with Jews living there. They coexisted fine until zionism entered the chat.

@piersmorgan Except…. He was right? You did say it….on your own show. Now you feel the need to backtrack in such a pathetic way.

@VictorLazlo8 @muhammadshehad2 Take people’s land illegally; torture, murder and humiliate them as you please; then when a militant group rises who doesn’t even inflict a FRACTION of the damage you did, “ThEy’Re ThE pRoBlEm”.

@johnpaulmoves @jake_tuura You think the adaptation to stress turns off if the red line occurs?

@aCarnivoreDiet @alexleaf Your post suggests a few things- 1. You don’t read labels because 1g sugar for 20g protein and low cals is damn good. 2. You think anything natural > artificial. Well sugar comes from a natural source 🤷🏻‍♂️ 3. You don’t understand inflammation and use it as a buzz word.

@clh_strength Accounting for the chaos element in sport is definitely a challenge. Would you say working on improving max capacities for speed and c.o.d., and reaction drills would fill the gaps perhaps? Obviously the magnitude of stress in the first drill has very little carry over.

@StrengthDebates Neither definitively imply any competency. At the entry level we need qualifications. Then experience > all. But we gotta start through entry levels somehow, hence the need for certs/degrees. I’ve met many coaches without a degree that can easily school my friends with PhDs.

@StrengthDebates - general load bearing ability - fundamental pattern - spine resilience - abdominal stability (transmitting forces through limbs Oh and it’s not a benchmark exe for me. Rather use RFESS for team sports.

@ZacGoodman_ Important to consider the cohort his observations came from. A weightlifter can access a higher percentage of his max force output in higher velocities for comp lifts. Also HOW high of a velocity? DL vs Cleans, or DL vs a CMJ? Load-velocity relationship is on a continuum,

@StrengthDebates Surprisingly good acceleration posture. Not rushing to get up. Horizontal projection 👌. Not surprising cuz of size, but rather cuz of how often people butcher it.

@StrengthDebates Looks like my usual don’t-have-time session. Never thought of this though; the session came about from just trying to find a balanced mix that hits the whole body.
