May Q&A: Movement Models, Con Ed and Augmented Eccentrics

And we’re back!

It’s been over a month since we did a Q&A episode, so I knew I needed to get one in sooner than later.

This week, we’ve got a ton of fun topics to discuss.

For starers, how do you determine your own weaknesses and plan your continuing education?

How do you help middle-aged weekend warriors get back out on the field, court or pitch?

And last but not least, what are augmented eccentrics? And should you be using them with your athletes?

We dive into all that – and much more – in this new episode!

 

Just like when you’re training your athletes you use a needs analysis, you need to do the same thing for YOURSELF when you’re creating your continuing education program. – Mike Robertson

 

This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:

• A brief life update regarding kiddos, coaching, and IFAST 4.0
• Nick B – What’s your process for planning out continuing education? How far out do you plan? How do you go about choosing topics to go deeper on?
• Nate B – Middle aged client started getting back into basketball but is so achy for days after? Tips?
• Adam H – What are your thoughts on augmented eccentrics? Very popular now and curious what you think. Thanks!
• Johnny B – Can you talk a little more about the RESET (R2) part of your R7 model? Do you train just one side sometimes? Thanks!
• Jan – Hello Mike, i would like to know how you can determine if you have anterior or posterior compression in the pelvis and how it shows in your assessment of the straight leg raise, supine knee flexion, IR and ER during supine hip flexion? Or what are you looking for during assessing the split squat. What is normal in the loading and propulsion phase of the movement? I have a hard time understanding this?
• Shaun C – Is the Overhead Press optional? And when does the next CCC open?
• Emotion Fitness – What Business System would you recommend for for nutrition coaching?
• Steve C – What are you Top 3 hip-hop albums of all time? And what do you train to?
  (Note: Life After Death was the Biggie album I meant to say! Ready to Die is a classic as well but LAD was in a constant rotation throughout college)
