    009 Sprinting

    Continuing on from the previous episodes discussing vertical jumping and throwing, Chris and Rob break down the way in which we can support the sprinting movement through targeted strength training.

    008 Throwing and punching

    Building once again on previous episodes in which they talked about strength, speed, and power, the proximal to distal sequence, and vertical jumping, Chris and Rob now tackle how throwing and punching work, and discuss how to train to improve performance in those activities.

    007 Vertical jumping

    In this episode, Chris and Rob build on previous podcast discussions about strength, speed, and power as well as on the proximal to distal sequence to explain [1] how vertical jumping works, and [2] how we can structure training programs to improve vertical jump height.

    006 Eccentric training

    In this episode, Chris and Rob introduce eccentric training, starting with the underlying physiological adaptations and then going on to provide some commentary on practical programming. Contrary to what you will likely hear elsewhere, the important (transferable) adaptations caused by eccentric training are peripheral and not neural.

    005 Stretch-shortening cycle

    In this episode, Chris and Rob introduce the stretch-shortening cycle and its underlying mechanisms, focusing on how it works in fast movements. This builds on previous episodes in which they talked about speed, power, strength, and the proximal to distal sequence. Learn more about how tendons work to store and release elastic energy in fast movements.

    004 Proximal to distal sequencing

    After covering the basics of strength, speed, and power, Chris and Rob now address how the proximal to distal sequence works. This is a key feature of human movement and has been observed in running, jumping, and throwing, as well as more complex activities. Understanding how it works is essential for interpreting the transfer of training to sporting performance.

    003 Maximum speed

    Building on the previous episodes, Chris and Rob tackle the adaptations that contribute to increasing maximum speed in the context of athletic training. As always, Chris explains the physiology and Rob provides examples of how to implement that knowledge from the training programs that he is currently writing for his clients.

    002 Maximum strength

    Chris and Rob walk through the major physiological adaptations that contribute to increases in maximum strength and give examples of how these adaptations can be stimulated by specific elements within a strength training program. Since maximum strength is an externally-measured outcome, it cannot be stimulated to increase directly. We must instead create a range of specific underlying adaptations, each of which have their own unique stimuli.

    001 Strength, speed, and power

    What are strength, speed, and power? We call them athletic qualities but how are they actually improved? In this episode, Chris and Rob explain how strength and speed are each outcomes underpinned by specific, unique adaptations, while power is a second order outcome underpinned by strength and speed.
