Today – my friend – we’re going to touch on ALL the hot button topics.

For instance, are we potentially missing the mark with our eccentric-focused training?

Putting an over-emphasis on extensive jump training?

Or maybe, just trying to figure out where the heck do deep tier plyos fit into the equation?

Ken Vick is the President and Global High-Performance Director of Velocity Sports Performance, and someone I know is ALWAYS thinking about training and how to optimize it.

And in today’s episode we’ll cover all those topics – and so many more!

Eccentric actions in sport are the most important in my view. They can give an athlete an advantage or they can cause damage

You just put a huge engine in without any brakes. If you’re not training through eccentric actions, you’re missing the brakes

Watch sports looking at it as a movement specialist. What are the movement patterns and what are the muscle actions that go along with that?
