Pearls of Speed & Power Development from a 30-year Veteran Coach - with Stuart McMillan

When working with an athlete you need to be clear about THEIR STRENGTHS. What makes them special? WHY are they good at what they do! While Stuart McMillan wants you to consider ALL ASPECTS of an athlete and their training, he especially emphasizes you to be clear around what makes them SUCCESSFUL. Then figure out how to exploit these further. Don’t go about working on weaknesses, which more often than not makes an athlete worse.  In our 40TH (OMG!) Training Science Podcast Episode, Paul and Stuart discuss a lot about how to work as an APPLIED coach, the ins and outs of whether SCIENCE and COACHING ideas come first or second, as well as an array of specific topics includingHow to get your athletes to apply force for optimal power and speed generationStrength training, yey or ney?The underwhelming use of eccentric training and the opportunities for our field to grow in this space, and How all of our current practices depend on the current “industry” trends and our own biases.Remember:We’ve got a NEW POWER & SPEED GURU bundle that will help you ASK THE RIGHT QUESTION about how to make your athletes FASTER 🏆 !🚀 https://hiit-science.thinkific.com/courses/everything-anaerobic-speed-and-power  🚀_____________________ Today’s speakers:Prof. Paul Laursen https://www.paullaursen.com/ Stuart McMillan https://twitter.com/StuartMcMillan1 _____________________ References:https://altis.world/

SELF SCIENCE with Dr Craig Duncan: Know and Manage Yourself First to Lead as a True Leader

Leaders must look after their wellbeing first ❤️ - you cannot otherwise expect others to trust you looking after them 😎Dr Craig Duncan is convinced that you are probably not self-managing your health and wellbeing enough on a daily and weekly basis - no, that ONE yoga, lifting or HIIT session 🧘‍♂️ you did last month does not count 🙅!Although sport is all about PERFORMANCE, we have to remember that unless we “walk the talk”, we are not only pretending we care about the importance of strength and conditioning, fitness, injury prevention, and all the other physical capacities mattering a lot, but we are also forgetting the key point:We are humans looking after humans 🥰In our 39th episode of The Training Science Podcast, Martin and Craig discuss ♻️ what it takes (in terms of your OWN HEALTH) to be a sustainable human in the area of sports and performance, 🦸🏻‍♂️ how leaders should be behaving and organizing themselves, as well as the people they are looking after, 🙌 and several other insights around implementing exercise and sports science from a human and interpersonal level. Want to be a LEADER that NEVER questions themselves when programming conditioning pieces? Well, we’ve got a world-class SYSTEM for you that covers EVERYTHING you will ever need to know about HIIT!🚀 https://hiit-science.thinkific.com/collections?category=science-sport 🚀_____________________ Today’s speakers:Dr Martin Buchheit https://martin-buchheit.net/ Dr Craig Duncan https://drcraigduncan.com.au/ _____________________ References:Martin’s https://egoalsbook.com/ Craig’s https://www.booktopia.com.au/self-science-craig-duncan/book/9781922452948.html _____________________

Anaerobic, Metabolic, Mechanical or What?! How Maximal Repetitive Speeds are NOT What You Think They Are - with Prof Peter Weyand

“ANAEROBIC”, energy or metabolism are NOT limiting your speed. Full stop. End of story - for now! The current data on it is quite clear, but yet most of us have NO CLUE that this is the case.Prof Peter Weyand has spent a couple of decades working in the physiology, physics AND mechanics of moving at high speeds - and he is more than confident that we should abolish the term “anaerobic” zone for fast speeds.In our 37th Episode of The Training Science Podcast, Paul and Peter go through A LOT of basic exercise science history, how Peter got to work with cheetahs, rhinos, horses AND humans, in an extremely unique place to uncover all sorts of characteristics of human locomotion. A whole lot of geeky insights into HOW and WHY we can or cannot go fast, but also a collection of anecdotes, analysis and comments on up to date topics like power meters in running, or force-velocity-curve based training. VERY LAST CHANCE FOR OUR:⚡SCIENCE & APPLICATION OF THE  ANAEROBIC SPEED AND POWER RESERVE⚡LAST CHANCE to GET INTO one of the WORLD’s FIRST courses about this UNIQUE and MISS UNDERSTOOD area 🏆 !🚀 https://hiit-science.thinkific.com/courses/everything-anaerobic-speed-and-power  🚀_____________________ Today’s speakers:Prof. Paul Laursen https://www.paullaursen.com/ Andrew Wiseman https://twitter.com/Dr_Weyand _____________________

The Self Managing Athlete: How to Build Autonomy for Better Health and Performance - with Andrew Wiseman

Adjusting your RECOVERY 🛀 and TRAINING for INDIVIDUAL players can happen AT THE SAME TIME as generating BUY-IN and developing EDUCATION through AUTONOMY 🤸!Andy Wiseman wants you to consider that “compliance” or “buy-in” can be developed together with the players and THEIR NEEDS, while also providing them EDUCATION instead of just information overload 📚!In our 36th episode of The Training Science Podcast, Martin and Andy discuss a lot of “non”-training sport science and application: everything from how to organise your training when you have little to no resources and need to rely on a lot of “sub”-optimal scheduling, how to work around extremely tight schedules and still hit individualized targets, all the way to how the mental aspects and out of game lifestyle factors are essential to be READY for training, along with when you might need to pull back.LAST WEEK FOR OUR:⚡SCIENCE & APPLICATION OF THE  ANAEROBIC SPEED AND POWER RESERVE⚡LAST CHANCE to GET INTO one of the WORLD’s FIRST courses about this UNIQUE and MISS UNDERSTOOD area 🏆 !🚀 https://hiit-science.thinkific.com/courses/everything-anaerobic-speed-and-power  🚀_____________________ Today’s speakers:Dr Martin Buchheit https://martin-buchheit.net/ Andrew Wiseman https://twitter.com/MrWiseyMan _____________________
