Partner 4-Direction Agility. Learning how to react and create an effective shin angle for the first step, just like defense . No cones needed, more athletes involved at once, easy progression from 1 steps ➡️ shuffle ➡️ crossovers

A question that centers my social media is “what if it works? Again, because that’s the point of posting, for it to work So would you rather build a brand/following on: -trends -clickbait titles -stuff that doesn’t feel like you Or -genuine posts you believe are valuable

We’ve all had athletes who seem to defy logic. No training age, bad technique, average strength. But they’re fast, jump high, and dominate the sport They have the end goal…how do you know adding 10lb or 2x their squat will make them better? Clearly they’re successful w/o that

Why do we test athletes? How should this process occur? Do you rely too heavily on data to coach? Are you testing just to affirm your own interventions? @coachbigtoe delivers his Creating a Testing Battery mini-course below. https://t.co/nRn7fPBB4k

Reminder: “individualized” can be scaled up or down based on what’s feasible for you Even just 2 groups instead of 1 counts 1️⃣ Force-deficient: 50% Vdec ➡️ 25% ➡️ 10% 2️⃣ Velo-deficient: 25% Vdec ➡️ 10% ➡️ 5% overspeed Ask what’s the commonality and how you can slightly adjust

Injury ➡️ Rehab ➡️ Reflections @AndersBraastad of @Glimt takes us through 4 return-to-play case studies (hamstring, adductor, quad, and return from external rehab) sharing how they used motorized resistance to create the exact stimulus each athlete needed all on the 1080 Sprint

Everything is relative and you have the power to control the relativity. Or else, you're leaving too much up to chance for anyone to be successful Patreon post 77:

If you owned a business, would you ever send out your products without tracking info? Why not? A simple analogy that summarizes the one most impactful coaching points I've learned in the last few years

7️⃣ Lateral Bound and Return Again, often talked about but hard to quanity. Frontal-plane explosiveness and braking, all in one. Add eccentric overload to add a challenge

6️⃣ Isokinetic Shoulder Y’s Think like a moving ASH test for the posterior shoulder. Concentric-only but great for developing strength in the decelerators for overhead athletes

5️⃣ Repeat Sprint 1-Steps Building rhythm and joint-angle specific strength. Add eccentric overload just by tapping the screen

4️⃣ Shuffle-Behind Rotation Previously hard to quantify without a radar gun. Measure and load rotational power, and as a bonus, drop the eccentric speed for concentric-only work

3️⃣ Heavy Backwards Walking Heavy loads without pinching fingers loading plates or wasted energy turning sleds. Just tap the screen and go, plus get left–right data if used during rehab

2️⃣ Isokinetic Shoulder External Rotation Easy to overlook and just check off the “rotator cuff” box with random exercises. Track/build strength and measure symmetry, all with isokinetics

7 favorite non-sprinting ways to use the @1080motion Sprint 2 From shoulders to decel to rotation, every plane and every pattern, loaded and quantified 1️⃣ ADA Test Often talked about, hard to quantify, until now. Quantify decel and apply load for higher braking/eccentric forces

Sport science is 📈 popularity, but many still see it as just collecting data The core is the scientific method: hypothesis (training plan), collect data, learn/adjust By understanding both what "load" and "monitoring" means, we data into decisions instead of just dashboards 👇

Goal of posting on social media = reach a new audience. If not, just send a newsletter A ❓ I always ask is “what if it works?” What if the post does do super well and reaches a new audience? Be prepared. I see too many bad bios, no locations/links, or info to actually cash in

By far one of the most simple and impactful frameworks for thinking about and organizing speed training However, like most things in training, there's nuance Here's a concise article on the biggest mistake when using intensity speed zones for speed development and how to fix it
