Chris discusses with us the idea of “whatever it takes” when it comes to our profession. We have to wear many hats in the field, depending on the size of your department you may have more or less than some, but we have all had to go a bit “outside the spectrum” of strength and conditioning.

After a quick review of his background Will gets into what he has taken from his three unique mentors and how that has impacted him as a professional, not just in training, but managerially with players as well. This leads us into how each of his stops, and different sports, has impacted his work with The Bills. We then discuss how they handle their players in the off season, including how they “sell” what they do and what “standards” they have when they return. We finish off discussing the idea of how structure governs function, both with the athlete in their performance, and the team as a whole with their culture.

“The best way to think about an asymmetry is your weaker limb has a bigger window of opportunity for you to develop and get stronger.”“Dominance is task specific” “When you do things out of the ordinary that’s when these imbalances can come out and grab you.”“Good quality training will naturally reduce asymmetries.”This episode of The Podcast is brought to you by Exxentric, the makers of the kBox and kPulley.

After a brief introduction we start out with Chris’s research (he’s getting his PhD now) including the what’s, why’s, and how’s he’s looking at with asymmetries in athletes. This runs us right into what Dr. Maloney has seen with his research and what he’s seeing in the gym along side it with training the athletes he gets to work with. Dr. Turner then discusses with us the statistical anomalies that occur with these asymmetries and how strength capacity is so important in looking at the difference in the limbs. We also discuss the role of functional adaptations when it comes to asymmetries in athletes, the role of the task in identifying asymmetries, the effects of competition on them, and the role in bilateral and unilateral training.
