Travelled his to use this with my online client SB Cannot cheat. Makes you work and see it in action here.

“Staggered trap bar work is rapidly becoming a favorite derivative. By using a quasi-bilateral stance (staggered), we can emphasize glute far more, due to the lower starting torso position and thus a deeper hip angle. It makes the movement a little more challenging for the trunk

PAUSE FOR THE CAUSE! Hang power clean with a pause at the catch -extra iso -teaches/reinforces a good catching position as long as they understand that where the bar is when they get still/balanced is where they need to pull it -fast bracing -great for novice lifters

Monday morning strength & power session: A1 - Prowler sprints - 3x(2x5m) A2 - Triple broad jump - 3x2 B1 - Deadlifts - 5, 3, 3, 3 C1 - Walking lunges - 2x8ea C2 - Single leg hamstring sliders - 2x5ea (5s ecc) C3 - Single leg eccentric calf raises (SSB) - 2x5ea (5s ecc) Wk 4/5

I’m a big fan of the seated double broad jump. You get the best of both worlds; on the first jump, the athlete has to produce force from a dead stop, then the second jump is a plyometric 👌👌

I build my strength programs around 8 movement patterns: • Squat • Hinge • Bridge • Lunge • Horizontal push • Horizontal pull • Vertical push • Vertical pull I’ve written a manual, which explains how I do it. Like & share this & send me your email & I’ll send you it.

These days, I include a lot more isometrics and eccentrics in my training and in the programs that I write for athletes. I try to priorise tendon health/strength, particularly in regards to the knees, Achilles and hamstrings. Below, hand assisted SSB eccentric calf raises.

Here’s some of our junior high girls high box squatting. Most of these girls played a basketball game the night before this video was taken. It’s hard to explain how happy I am with our girls’ coaches here in Holliday. Every single girl lifts twice a week year round.

Athletes heavily loading bilateral lifts without being strong on one leg are setting themselves up for issues later. Don’t overlook unilateral strength development. Unilateral squat and hinges have to be staples.

Two nice exercises for developing hamstring strength, at length: • Elevated hamstring bridge. • Alternating hamstring bridge (DB on hips).
