"If you don't fight for time, you are part of the crime.". If your warm-up looks like a 1-minute Three Stooges clip, then let's drop the title "High Performance" from the biography. The sign of a great warm-up is gradual priming, not if the exercises look new or cool.

Remember Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation?. While the trend in sports moved on, a great takeaway was the pulse concepts from decades earlier, mainly from horse racing. You must load the body safely, and "exercise snacks" in sport are not going to protect athletes.

The return to Macro Cycles-. Microdosing in sports training as a means to infuse sprints in a congested load environment was coined by @DerekMHansen over 20 years ago. While the term is popular now, the issue is that "micro anything" can't do much in a bad macro environment. 🧵

“You are only as fast as the slowest link”. Arm action is not going to do much to get faster (1-2%) but it can keep you from reaching your potential. The best way to view the spine as a transmission to the legs from the arms rather than a force generator. Win the arms race!.
