April 01 Better Than RSI: The Simple Formula…
Today on the podcast we’re joined by Dr. Lance Brooks, a biomechanist and physiologist whose work focuses on how force is actually produced and expressed in sport. Dr. Brooks serves as a faculty member at Bridgewater State University—which is also my alma mater—and he brings a rare combination of high-level research and real-world performance application.
In this episode, we talk about sprint mechanics, acceleration, stretch–shortening cycle performance, and why some of the metrics coaches rely on may not mean what we think they mean. We dig into his critique of the Reactive Strength Index, the development of the Dynamic Rebound Index, and what it really means to evaluate force production in a mechanically sound way.
