*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*
In this episode, Gerry welcomes Elon University Director of Sports Performance, Nick DiMarco.
Nick and Gerry jump right into the current state of conditioning and conditioning tests in the professional sports world, particularly addressing some of the summer headlines created from the conditioning done by the New York Giants.
The conversation talks about ways to improve knowledge of the needs and demands of a sport and finding better conditioning protocol and how coaches can improve the effectiveness of the tests they use with their athletes.
From there, the conversation turns to plyometrics, specifically high depth jumps for maximal strength benefit. Nick discusses the benefits he has seen in using these with his athletes and why you SHOULD not be afraid of "dangers," of high drops off heights.
All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!
