Today's podcast features Derek Hansen. Derek is a renowned International Sport Performance Consultant with over 35 years of experience working with athletes across all levels and disciplines in speed, strength, and power sports. Derek started in Track and Field and continued in sports performance to work with numerous athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLS, and NHL, along with Olympic medalists. As the former Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for Simon Fraser University—NCAA's first non-U.S. member—Derek now specializes in speed development, performance planning, and return-to-competition protocols. If we zoom out and scan decades of fitness and human performance, we see methods go in, and out of style. In our current realm of athletics, we have put speed and power outputs heavily under the microscope, while energy system development and aerobic training have been played down (along with general physical education and physical competencies in young athletes). In looking at injury rates and longevity of athletes, it's important to take a look at where we may be pushing too far, and where gaps need to be filled. On today's episode, Derek covers the pendulum swing, and the importance of aerobic development, even in speed and power-seeking athletes. He also gets into the modern direction of acceleration training, as team sport training has moved into heavier resisted training protocols, relative to the past. Derek also touches on the artful side of training and coaching, mindfulness, overspeed sprint training, simplicity of programming application, and much more.

TRANSCRIPT Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Hello, and welcome to JCO Precision Oncology Conversations, where we bring you engaging conversations with authors of clinically relevant and highly significant JCO POarticles. I'm your host, Dr. Rafeh Naqash, Podcast Editor for JCO Precision Oncology and Assistant Professor at the OU Health Stephenson Cancer Center at the University of Oklahoma.  Today, we are joined by Dr. Alok A. Khorana, Professor of Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic and Case Comprehensive Cancer Center, and also the Senior Author of the JCO Precision Oncology article titled, “Molecular Differences With Therapeutic Implications in Early-Onset Compared With Average-Onset Biliary Tract Cancers.”  At the time of this recording, our guest disclosures will be linked in the transcript.  Dr. Khorana, it's an absolute pleasure to have you here today, and welcome to the podcast. Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Thank you. It's an absolute pleasure to be here and thank you for highlighting this article. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Absolutely. We're going to talk about science, obviously, and a few other things. So to start off, for the sake of our audience, which comprises academicians and community oncologists as well as trainees, can you tell us a little bit about biliary tract cancers, what we have learned over the last decade or so, where the standard of treatment currently lies. And then we can dive into the article that you published. Dr. Alok A. Khorana: As many of you who treat GI cancers know, biliary tract cancers for a long period of time were sort of the orphan cancer in the GI cancer world. They're not nearly as common as, say, pancreatic cancer, and certainly not as common as colorectal cancer. They're sort of also, in this weird ‘no man's land' between well known sort of adjuvant therapy trials in pancreatic cancer or colorectal cancer, but because they're not as high in volume, there weren't really large trials done in this population. What's really changed in the past decade, especially, has been the slow but sure realization that biliary tract cancers are in fact a target rich cancer, almost similar to what you would see with lung cancer, and that's only a slight exaggeration. And in some studies, as many as up to 40% of patients with biliary tract cancers can have something that's targetable. And that's really revolutionized the way we think of biliary tract cancers. It also separated this field from pancreatic cancer where formerly the two used to be lumped together, and even within biliary tract cancers, we are now slowly realizing that there are differences between intrahepatic, extrahepatic and gallbladder cancers. Big change is really afoot in this field, particularly with the identification of mutation directed targets. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Thank you for that explanation.  Now, another question I have is, although I don't see any GI cancers, but I have good colleagues of mine at our cancer center who see a lot of GI pancreatic/biliary cancers, and one of the things that comes up in our molecular tumor board often is how certain cancers of unknown primary end up being identified or categorized as biliary tract cancers based on NGS. And again, the uptake for these NGS is perhaps isn't optimal in the field yet, but in your practice, how do you approach situations like that? Do you use NGS in certain cases where the tissue of origin or the patterns of the mutations indicate that this might be biliary tract cancer and then treat the patient accordingly?  Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah, that's true. And that's certainly how I approach things, and I would say even in my own personal practice, that has been a change. I was a little bit skeptical about the benefit of sort of tissue of origin type of testing in carcinoma of unknown, primarily, especially if you can sort of narrow it down to one or other area of the GI tract. But with the identification of sort of targeted subpopulations, especially of biliary tract cancer, I think it's become imperative. And I know we're going to get into the paper, but if you want to learn nothing else from this 20, 25 minute podcast, one lesson I just want to make sure everybody gets is that any patient with biliary tract cancer should have NGS done as soon as possible. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Thank you for highlighting that important aspect.  Now, going to the topic at hand, what was the driving factor? I've heard a lot about colorectal cancers, early onset versus later onset. What was the reason that you looked at biliary tract cancers? Is that something that you've seen on a rise as far as early onset biliary tract cancers is concerned?  Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah. So we got into this subject also from starting out at colorectal cancer. And as you know, and I'm sure most of your audience knows, there's been a lot of literature out there over the past five, six, seven years suggesting and then documenting and then sort of proving and reproving that colorectal cancer is on the rise, and especially in people younger than age 50. And even in that population, it's on the rise in two different subpopulations, people in their 20s and 30s and then people in their 40s that are close to the screening colonoscopy rates. That's been investigated heavily. We still don't fully understand why that's happening, but it's not restricted to the United States. It's a worldwide phenomenon. You can see it in the United States, in North America. You can see it in western Europe, but you can also see it in many Asian countries with specific sort of subpopulations. For instance, in some countries, men are more likely to have early onset cancers.   And then a newer finding that sort of emerged over the past couple of years is that this early onset increase in cancers is not just restricted to colorectal cancer, although that's the one that sticks out the most, but in fact, is widespread across a bunch of different types of cancers. In my own research program, we had gotten into a sort of better understanding of early onset colorectal cancer a couple of years ago, driven primarily by the sort of patients that I saw in my practice. And it's just, as you know, when you have a couple of those heartbreaking cases and they're just impossible to forget, and it sort of just drives your attention, and then you want to do something to help them. And if you can't help them personally, then you want to do something that can change the field so that more of these patients are not coming in your clinic next year or the year after.  So a couple years ago, at the Cleveland Clinic where I practice, we created a center for young onset cancers, and at the time it was primarily focused on colorectal cancer. But as we are getting into colorectal cancer, we realize that beyond colorectal cancer, we are also starting to see more younger people with other cancers, including pancreas cancer, including gastric cancer, and including bile duct cancers. And we realized that because so much attention was being focused on colorectal, that maybe we should also be paying a little bit of attention to what was happening in this space. I want to, for your listeners, point out that the problem in bile duct cancers is not to the same degree as you see in colorectal cancer. Just a couple numbers to sort of, to set this in perspective: about 5%, 7% of bile duct cancers are young onset - it's not a huge proportion - 90%+ percent of patients are not young onset. But the impact on society, the impacts on those providing care, is obviously substantial for younger patients. And it is true that even though the proportion of patients is not that high, the incidence is rising.   And there's a very nice study done a couple of years ago and published that looked at what the cancers are that are rising at the highest rates. And bile duct cancer and gallbladder cancers were listed amongst the two with the highest rate, so about an 8% rate per year of increase. And so that's really what drove our interest was, as we're seeing early onset bile duct cancers, it's rising year by year, and what is this disease? Is it the same as you see in sort of the average patient with bile duct cancer? Is it different? How do we characterize it? How do we understand it? What are some of the causes precipitating it? And so that's what led us to sort of one of the investigations that we've documented in this paper.  Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Excellent.   So, talking about this paper, again, can you describe the kind of data that you use to understand the molecular differences and also look at potential immune signatures, etc., differences between the groups? Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah. So the objective in this paper was to look at genomic differences between early onset and usual onset, or average onset biliary tract cancers. And this sort of followed the paradigm that's already been established for early onset colorectal cancer, where you take a bunch of people with early onset disease, a bunch of patients with average onset or usual onset disease, and then look at the profiling of the tumors. And we've done this for genomics, we've done this for microbiomics, we've done it for metabolomics. And the lessons we've learned in colorectal cancer is that, in many ways, the profiles are actually quite substantially different. And you can almost think of them as diseases of the same organ, but caused by different processes, and therefore leading to different genotypes and phenotypes and microbiomes. We had absorbed that lesson from colorectal cancer, and we wanted to replicate it in this type of cancer.  But as we discussed earlier, this is a relatively rare cancer, not that many cases per year. For colorectal, we could do a single institution or two institution studies. But for this, we realized we needed to reach out to a source of data that would have access to large national data sets. We were happy to collaborate with Caris Life Sciences. Caris, many of you might know, is a provider of genomics data, like many other companies, and they house this data, and they had the age categorization of patients less than 50, more than 50. And so we collaborated with investigators at Caris to look at all the specimens that had come in of bile duct cancers, identified some that were young onset and some that were older onset. It was roughly about 450 patients with the early onset or young onset, and about 5000 patients with usual onset cases. And then we looked at the genomics profiling of these patients. We looked at NGS, whole exome sequencing, whole transcriptome sequencing, and some immunohistochemistry for usual, like PDL-1 and MSI High and things like that. And the purpose was to say, are there differences in molecular profiling of the younger patient versus the older patient? And the short answer is yes, we did find substantial differences, and very crucial for providers treating these patients is that we found a much higher prevalence of FGFR2 fusion. And that's important because, as I'm sure you've heard, there's a ton of new drugs coming out that are targeting specifically FGFR fusion in this and other populations. And hence my statement at the outset saying you've got to get NGS on everybody, because especially younger patients seem to have higher rates of some of these mutations.  Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Excellent. You also looked at the transcriptome, and from what I recollect, you identified that later onset tumors had perhaps more immune favorable tumor microenvironment than the early onset. But on the contrary, you did find that FGFR2 early onset had better survival. So how do you connect the two? Is there an FGFR link, or is there an immune signature link within the FGFR cohort for early onset that could explain the differences? Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah, that's a great question. So, to kind of summarize a couple of these things you talked about. So, one is we looked at these genomic alterations, and, yes, FGFR2 fusion was much more prevalent. It's close to 16% of young onset patients, as opposed to roughly 6% of average onset patients. So almost a threefold increase in FGFR fusion. And because there's so many drugs that are targeting FGFR fusion, and because the population included a period of time when these drugs had already been approved, we think some of the benefit or the improvement in median survival associated with being younger is likely driven by having more FGFR fusion and therefore having more drugs available to treat FGFR fusion related tract cancer with corresponding increase and increase in survival. And that was part of it. There was one other alteration, NIPBL fusion, that's been sort of known to be associated with a certain subtype of cholangiocarcinoma, but it doesn't really have a drug that targets it, so it's not sort of very useful from a clinical perspective.   The other two things you talked about, so transcriptome and immuno oncology markers, we found a couple different results on this. So one is that we found in younger people, angiogenesis was enriched, and why this is so we don't quite have a good answer for that. The other was inflammatory responses. So there's a couple of gamma interferon pathways and a couple other types of pathways that you can sort of do pathway analysis, and we found that those were enriched in the older patients or the average onset patients. But the benefit for immunotherapy was similar across the two groups. So even though we saw these differences in signaling in terms of which pathways are upregulated or downregulated, it didn't seem to translate into the current generation of immune checkpoint inhibitors that we're using in terms of benefit for patients. But we did see those differences.  Dr. Rafeh Naqash: I completely agree, Doctor Khorana. As you mentioned, that one size fits all approach does not necessarily work towards a better, optimal, personalized treatment stratification. So, as we do more and more sequencing and testing for individuals, whether it's early onset cancers or later onset cancers, figuring out what is enriched and which subtype, I think, makes the most sense.   Now, going to the FGFR2 story, as you and most listeners probably already know, FGFR is an approved target, and there are a band of FGFR inhibitors, and there's some interest towards developing specific FGFR2, 3 fusion inhibitors. What has your experience with FGFR inhibitors in the clinic been so far? And what are you personally excited about from an FGFR standpoint, in the drug development space for GI cancers?  Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah, I think the whole FGFR fusion story sort of actually deserves more excitement than it's gotten, and it may be because, as I mentioned earlier, biliary tract cancers are a relatively low volume type of cancer. But the results that we are seeing in the clinic are very impressive. And the results that we are anticipating, based on some ongoing phase two and phase three trials, appear to be even more impressive for the very specific inhibitors that are about to hopefully come out soon.   Also, the possibility of using successive lines of FGFR inhibitors - if one fails, you try a second one; if the second one fails, you try a third one because the mechanisms are subtly different - I think it will take a little while to figure out the exact sequencing and also the sort of the rates of response in people who might previously have been exposed to an FGFR inhibitor. So that data may not be readily available, because right now most patients are going in for longer trials. But having that type of possibility, I think, kind of reminds me of the excitement around CML back when imatinib suddenly became not the only drug and a bunch of other drugs came out, and it's kind of like that. I think again, it's not a very common cancer, but it's really wonderful to see so many options and more options along the way for our patients. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Thank you. Now, going to your personal story, which is the second part of this conversation, which I think personally, for me, is always very exciting when I try to ask people about their personal journeys. For the sake of the listeners, I can say that when I was a trainee, I used to hear about Dr. Khorana's course, I always thought that Dr. Alok Khorana was a hematologist. My friends corrected me a few years back and said that you're a GI oncologist. Can you tell us about your love for GI oncology and the intersection with hematology thrombosis, which you have had a successful career in also? Can you explain how that came about a little bit? Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah, sure. So it is a common, I guess I shouldn't say misperception, but it's certainly a common perception that I'm a hematologist. But I'll sort of state for the record that I never boarded in hematology. I did do a combined hem-onc fellowship, but only boarded in oncology. So I'm actually not even boarded in hematology. My interest in thrombosis came about- it's one of those things that sort of happen when you're starting out in your career, and things align together in ways that you don't sort of fully understand at the time. And then suddenly, 10 years later, you have sort of a career in this.   But it actually came about because of the intersection of, at the time, angiogenesis and coagulation. And this is the late ‘90s, early two ‘00s, there was a lot of buzz around the fact that many of the factors that are important for coagulation are also pro angiogenic and many factors that are coagulation inhibitors. These are naturally occurring molecules in your body, and can be anticoagulant and anti angiogenic. A great example of this is tissue factor, which is, as you'll remember from the coagulation pathways, the number one molecule that starts off the whole process. But less widely appreciated is the fact that nearly every malignancy expresses tissue factor on its cell surface. This includes breast cancer, it includes leukemia cells, it includes pancreatic cancer. In some cancers, like pancreatic cancer, we've even shown that you can detect it in the blood circulation. And so for me, as a GI oncologist who was seeing a lot of patients get blood clots, it was particularly fascinating to sort of see this intersection and try and understand what is this interaction between the coagulation and angiogenic cascades that's so vital for cancers. Why is coagulation always upregulated in cancer patients? Not all of them get blood clots, but subclinical activation of coagulation always exists. So I would say I was fascinated by it as an intellectual question and really approached it from an oncology perspective and not a hematology perspective.   But then as I got deeper into it, I realized not everybody's getting blood clots, and how can I better predict which patients will get blood clots. And so I had both a hematology mentor, Charlie Francis, and an oncology mentor, Gary Lyman. And using sort of both their expertise, I drafted a K23 career development award specifically to identify predictors of blood clots in cancer patients. And that's the multivariate model that later became known as the Khorana Score. So again, I approach it from an oncology perspective, not a hematology perspective, but really a fascinating and still, I would say an understudied subject is why are cancer patients having so many clotting problems? And what does it say about the way cancer develops biologically that requires activation of the coagulation system across all of these different cancers? And I think we still don't fully understand the breadth of that. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Very intriguing how you connected two and two and made it a unique success story. And I completely agree with you on the tissue factor. Now there's ADCs antibody drug conjugates that target tissue factor, both a prude as well as upcoming.   Now, the second part of my question is on your personal journey, and I know you've talked about it on social media previously, at least I've seen it on social media, about your interactions with your uncle, Dr. Har Gobind Khorana, who was a Nobel Prize winner in medicine and physiology for his work on DNA. Could you tell us about how that perhaps shaped some of your personal journey and then how you continued, and then also some personal advice for junior faculty trainees as they proceed towards a successful career of their own? Dr. Alok A. Khorana: Yeah, thank you for bringing that up. So very briefly, this is about my uncle. He's actually my great uncle. So he's my grandfather's youngest brother. And I grew up in India in the ‘70s and ‘80s, and at the time, I ran away from this association as fast as I could, because growing up in India in the 70s and ‘80s, it was a socialist economy. There wasn't a lot going on. There was certainly none of the IT industry and all of everything that you see right now. And so there were very few icons, and my great uncle was definitely one of those few icons. As soon as you mentioned your last name, that would sort of be the first question people would ask. But he did serve as a role model, I think, both to my father, who was also a physician scientist and a professor of medicine, and then to myself in sort of making me realize, one, that you can't really separate medicine from science. I think those are really integrated, and we want to ask questions and answer questions in a scientific manner. He chose to do it in a basic science world. My father did it in a clinical science world, and I have done it in a clinical and a translational science world. Again, sort of using science as the underpinning for sort of understanding diseases, I think, is key. And so that was certainly a massive inspiration to me.  And then after I immigrated to the US in the late ‘90s, I met him on a regular basis. He was certainly very inspirational in his successes, and I realized the breadth of what he had done, which I did not realize in my youth growing up. But this is a person who came to the US. This was before Asian immigration was even legal. So he got here and they had to pass a special bill in Congress to let him be a citizen that was based on the sort of work that he had done in Canada and in the UK before he came here. And then he sets up shop in the University of Wisconsin in Madison and hires tons of these postdocs and essentially converted his lab into this massive factory, trying to figure out the genetic code. Really just the type of dedication that that needs and the amount of work that that needs and the ability to do that in a setting far removed from where he grew up, I think it's just really quite mind boggling.  And then he didn't stop there. He got the Nobel for that, but I have these letters that he wrote after he got the Nobel Prize, and he was just completely obsessed with the possibility that getting the Nobel would make him sort of lose his mojo and he wouldn't be as focused on the next aspects of science. And he was just really dedicated to synthesizing DNA in the lab, so creating artificial DNA, which he ended up doing. And the offshoot of that work, so not just the genetic code, but PCR essentially was developed by his lab before it became sort of what we now know as PCR. And then ditches all of that in the ‘80s and ‘90s and moves to understanding the retina and just focuses on retinal disorders. And then signal transduction, essentially trying to figure out when a single photon of light hits your eye, what happens biologically. It's a completely different field. And just took that on and spent the next 20,30 years of his life doing that. So the ability to sort of change fields, I thought that was very inspirational as well, that you don't have to just stick to one question. You can get into one question, answer it as much as possible, and then find something else that's really interesting to you and that really grabs your attention, and then stick with that for the next couple of decades. So lots to learn there. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Thank you. Thank you. And then, based on some of your personal lessons, what's your advice for junior faculty and trainees as you've progressed in your career?  Dr. Alok A. Khorana: I think, number one, and I can't emphasize this enough, and sometimes it actually causes a little bit of anxiety, but it is finding the right mentor. And for me, certainly that was key, because my mentor, who was Charlie Francis, was not an oncologist who was a hematologist, but was like me, sort of supported this idea of trying to understand, hey, why does coagulation interact with cancer? And so he approached it from a hematology perspective, I approached it from a cancer perspective, but he sort of gave me the freedom to ask those questions in his lab and then later on in the clinical setting and clinical translational setting, and then got me access to other people who are experts in the field and introducing you and then getting you on committees and making sure you sort of get into clinical trials and so on. And so having a mentor who sort of supports you but doesn't stifle you, and that's really key because you don't want to just ask the question that the mentor is interested in. And as a mentor now, I don't want to have my mentee ask the question that I'm interested in, but also a question that the mentee is interested in. And so there's a little bit of a chemistry there that's not always replicable, and it can go wrong in sort of five different ways, but when it goes right, it's really vital. And I mentioned it causes anxiety because, of course, not every day is great with your mentor or with your mentee, but over a period of time, has this person done sort of their best to get your career off to a start? And have you served that mentor well by doing the things that are– there's responsibilities on both sides, on both on the mentor and on the mentee. And if you can find that relationship where there's a little bit of chemistry there and both of you are effectively discharging both your responsibilities and satisfying your intellectual curiosity, I think that can't be beat, honestly. To me, sort of number one is that and everything else follows from that. So, the networking, making sure your time is sort of allocated appropriately, fighting with sort of the higher ups to make sure that you're not having to do too much, things that are sort of away from your research interests, all of that sort of flows from having the right person. Dr. Rafeh Naqash: Couldn't agree with you more, Dr. Khorana, thank you so much. It was an absolute pleasure. Thank you for sharing with us the science, the personal as well as the professional journey that you had. And hopefully, when you have the next Khorana Score, Khorana score 2.0, JCO Precision Oncology will become the home for that paper and we'll try to have you again maybe in the near future.  Thank you for listening to JCO Precision Oncology Conversations.

Today's podcast features sprint coach Jack Edwards. Jack is the coach and company co-founder with Track Speed Development and is experienced in club and high school track coaching. He runs the "Metamorphosis Track Project" page on social media, is the creator of the "Acceleration Monster" training manual, and can often be found at the Bankstown athletics track in Sydney. Jack works closely with individuals from diverse backgrounds and age groups, ranging from national-level competitors to newcomers in track and field. Jack's coaching approach underscores the significance of individual observation, athlete identity, and tailored strategies to optimize each athlete's s movement and performance. It is easy in sprint training (or general athletic performance) to focus on the "micro" or isolated aspects of athletic performance training. It is easy to treat all athletes the same in programming and cueing. Although a general structure must exist in training groups, it must also be understood what drives each athlete's performance engine, their ideal cues and communication strategies, and related training constraints and exercises. In today's episode, we delve into the unique coaching approach of Jack Edwards. He shares insights on painting a comprehensive picture of the athlete, considering the driving mechanisms of their movement, psychological factors, and adaptation in sprint training. Jack also discusses the importance of developing an athlete based on their needs, their "superpower ", and "identity", bringing the power of story into the sprint training equation. We also explore the concept of coaching based on big picture elements, versus a "micro" approach. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of these topics and more in today's episode.

I think that the demands of sprinting and lifting weights and, and getting jacked is such a stressor on the posterior chain, and as someone who has some anterior hip issues historically, I almost felt like the ab circuits were my postural restoration, as silly as that sounds- Jack Edwards "I think that my goal when I first start working with someone, I guess, is to try and paint a picture as to who the athlete is." - Jack Edwards "I think that there are probably common factors which need to be included in the program and the sort of movement styles that athletes probably need to move towards to become faster runners."  - Jack Edwards "I was working with at a all boys school, and we're coaching a variety of different athletes.

In this 1474th episode of Toronto Mike'd, Mike chats with Ben Johnson about running 9.79 at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, being disqualified and stripped of his medal, living with this shame, and surviving to find happiness. Mary Ormsby joins us to answer the burning question "can a guilty person be done dirty on the world's stage". We talked about his early years of training, being coached by Charlie Francis, setting the world record of 9.83 in Rome at the World Championships in Rome, running 9.79 at the Olympics in Seoul in 1988, testing positive for anabolic steroids, getting stripped of his gold medal and world record, why he believes he was denied due process and set up to fail, appearing in the Cheetah energy drink ad with Frank D'Angelo, becoming a grandfather and saving for retirement in Jamaica.

On episode 56, I sat down with Coach Matt Tometz of TCBoost Training. Coach Tometz has wrote several awesome articles for simplifaster detailing many of the talking points referenced in todays episode. This episode focused on speed training and how to get the most that you can out of speed training by utilizing objective data to validate when athletes are primed to perform max effort sprint sessions. The first portion of the conversation centered heavily on data and how to integrate data into the decision making process for a coach. One of the first things that Matt offered that I really enjoyed is that data is not a standalone variable. Data is part of a 3 part equation, 1) the data, 2) the coaches eye 3) The athlete and their current feeling. Before talking about speed training, its good to define the topic to give reference to the main talking points. Matt does just that and one can see the different traits that need to be arranged to effectively build and model towards speed and power development. We next discuss Charlie Francis and his 95% rule and how practitioners can utilize this metric to help inform program choices and examine overall athlete readiness. Again Numbers are only valid if we can calculate them under valid conditions, Matt discusses how he calculates Athletes 95% capacity and how it helps him to give meaning and an aiming point for the session. I really like how in this section Matt discusses how it is unrealistic to expect a PR on each sprint attempt, such an environment and attitude can be detrimental to development. Matt shares how the 95% rule allows for him to complete high quality speed and combat unrealistic expectations and PRitis. Data is a great metric that allows for coaches to keep their finger on the pulse of a given session, however, Matt shares how one anomaly isn't cause for an alarm. Matt shares another great rationale that moving directly from data to decision can be a mistake. The appropriate order to insure optimal training would be data, discussion, decision, this involves athletes in the training process and also allows for coaches to appear less Draconian. Much of the second part of the conversation discusses resisted sprinting and Matt and I share the observation that much of the resisted patterns of the weight room are not in the horizontal vector. This naturally shows why I believe Resisted sprinting to be extremely valuable for the building of plane specific force in athletes. Matt offers up a guiding question that he ask himself to guide his why in programming and decisions, What is the best use of my hour that I have with an athlete? Matt rationalizes and rightfully so that he firstly will provide a high quality speed stimulus to his athletes. This is really invaluable because most of the athletes that he is dealing with do not consistently encounter a potent speed stimulus, Prep and games more often fall into the 85% zone that Francis warned about. The last part of our conversation focuses on Velocity Decrements in sprinting and Matt does a great job explaining the process and stimulus of each zone. Matt also discusses how to use sprint profiling to develop programming on an individualized scale. Make sure to check the links below for access to Matt's socials and show.

In Part II we discuss the intricacies of rest and recoveries between intense workouts. I explain how to use games to make sports performance fun with acceleration. We talk about the load minimums and maximums that are unique to acceleration. I also explain how to use different systems to blend the training and keep it interesting. We explain the value of having actual cues for different movements for different contacts through challenging workouts. In maximum velocity, we discuss how to do the workouts correctly. Also, I educated the audience on how to force the body into new firing patterns to avoid rhythm lock or what the late great Charlie Francis called a dynamic stereotype. I explain what each of these training zones requires and how to use various movement patterns to make the CNS go into overdrive for adaptation into great maximal speeds.

Today was like being a kid in a candy store as I had an absolute blast learning from Al Vermeil. Coach Vermeil is most famous for his work as the strength & conditioning coach during the Chicago Bull's dynasty run and his time with the NFL Championship 49ers. However, it's important to mention he has spent time with almost every level including high school. His breadth and depth of knowledge is staggering. Certainly, his expertise is a testament to his dedication to being a lifelong learner. We discussed his personal story and luck to get into strength training at such an early age. He shared the importance of humbling yourself to learn from the greats in the field. He specifically reflected on the importance of Charlie Francis in his development. We dove deep into his preference of training without gadgets whenever possible. We compared workloads of the past and today. Al then shares his thoughts about unilateral vs. bilateral lifts. Coach Vermeil shared his test battery for evaluating athletes. After discussing testing Al explains the key principles of his pyramid of performance.

Today’s podcast features speed and strength coach Brandon Byrd.  Brandon Byrd is the owner of Byrd’s Sports Performance in Orefield, Pennsylvania.  Brandon is an alumni of the University of Pittsburgh and has learned from elite coaches such as Louie Simmons, Charlie Francis, Buddy Morris and others. Brandon’s unique blend of rotating training stimuli, and his competitive, PR driven environment has elicited noteworthy speed, power and strength gains in his athletes. If you follow Brandon on social media, you’ll see the regular occurrence of sprint and jump records from his athletes.  Brandon has some of the highest-output training out there in his ability to cultivate speed and strength. I always enjoy digging into the training of elite coaches, into the nuts and bolts that drives their systems.  Some of the running themes on this show have been ideas such as the rotation of big training stimuli from week to week (such as in EP 190 with Grant Fowler), the power of resisted sprinting (EP 12 and 63 with JB Morin and Cameron Josse), overspeed sprinting (EP 51 with Chris Korfist), and then the power of competition and PR’s (EP 135 with Tony Holler). This episode with coach Brandon Byrd truly brings all of those elements together in a way that gets some of the best training results you’ll find.  On today’s podcast, Brandon goes into the core of his system, and how he rotates his sprint efforts based on the needs of the athlete, to get the most out of their system.  He also goes into his background with Westside Barbell, and the elements he learned from Louie Simmons that go into his training, as well as strength pre-requisites he carries for his athletes to optimize their readiness for the strength and speed program. (Note that when Brandon is talking about fly 10’s he is talking yards, not meters) Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.

Derek Hansen from SprintCoach joins the show today to talk all things speed, including sprinting, acceleration, coaching, his time with Charlie Francis, adapting to your athletes, subjective and objective experiences, auditing yourself, and implementing protocols for team and individual sports. After playing sports through college, Derek jumped over to the coaching side when he went to graduate school and decided to coach track athletes in his free time. After figuring out a 9-5 engineering job wasn’t for him, he worked coaching back into his life and eventually started his own sprint group. This led to a university strength and conditioning gig while he continued to put out his own articles and content. Derek has spoken at the NFL combine and helped NFL teams develop their athletes, and now primarily focuses on speed for team sports. He has also turned all of his knowledge into a series of courses called Running Mechanics Professional (https://www.runningmechanics.com/) . There’s no denying that speed is important in all sports, but the development can be drastically different depending on the sport. You have to look at the specific demands of the sport and adapt your sprint training accordingly. For instance, a basketball player is going to need acceleration, but a special teams player on a football field may regularly need 100 yard sprint speed. Another large consideration is that time is a huge constraint for coaches, and you need to learn to be flexible. The ability to take sprint concepts and condense them down for the respective sport will go a long way for your athletes. Derek was lucky enough to spend around 10 years working with Charlie Francis, so we dug into some of the big takeaways he has from that experience. The biggest takeaway Derek has is adapting to the strengths of your athlete. Every circumstance and athlete is different, and the direct applications of Charlie Francis were completely different depending on the context and strengths of each athlete he worked with. Another interesting note here is that Charlie didn’t plan workouts like most coaches do today, and many times he would change programming during the session due to the stimulus he was observing. While he had an idea of where he wanted his athletes to be and where they were going, he operated more off of a “gut feel” based on what the athlete is showing him.  This sparks a conversation on the way we program and track our athletes today and if always having predetermined long term plans might be making our coaching and athletes more fragile. Derek draws the comparison of coaching to stand up comedy, and just comics need to always be developing new material and adjusting to their audiences, as a coach you need to be doing the same for your athletes. You want concepts and principles as guides and then to be agile with those concepts, which takes years of experience and critical thinking to develop.  Another challenge with sprint training is that it’s extremely hard to measure the on field effectiveness of the training. Lots of coaches aim to use measurable tests in the weightroom in order to demonstrate their prowess as a coach, but those don’t necessarily translate to on the field performance. Derek aims to find the balance between the weight room and qualities needed for the athlete’s sport. Much of this was learned through years of trial and error.This is why real life experience cannot be emphasized enough for young coaches along with the willingness to fail. While research studies can point us in the right direction, they fail to observe the effort over long periods of time.  We transition here to look at the process Derek goes through when starting with a new team on speed development. In general most coaches aren’t as familiar with speed concepts as they might be with weight lifting, so Derek’s first step is to educate the team and staff on what speed training actually is. Sometimes he will simply go...

Today’s episode features strength coach Christian Thibaudeau.  Christian has been involved in the business of training for the last 18 years, having worked with athletes from 28 different sports.  He is a prolific writer and presenter, having written four books, as well as presenting to top coaches and organizations all over the world. Christian is also the creator of the Neuro-typing system, which classifies athletes according to the neurotransmitters they seek out.  This system has the categories of 1A,1B,2A,2B and 3, and Christian has covered this topic extensively on this podcast, as well as many other shows. There are many intersections of the neuro-typing system, as well as other categories of individualization.  As discussed on my recent talk with Ross Jeffs, the “concentric”, “elastic” and “metabolic” sprinter types tend to fit with the 1A,1B and 2A neuro-types in regards to their strengths and optimal training regimen. One element of training that I’ve been considering a lot is optimal training splits for sprinting and jumping athletes, and reconciling 4-day training splits (or even 6-day) where there is an intensive CNS element, versus more of a “high-low” split that Charlie Francis made so popular. This new podcast with Christian digs into understanding how to give athletes their best training split by understanding the relationship of adrenaline to overtraining.  It also looks at things like muscle tone as how one can make a better assessment of an athlete, what training they may respond best to, as well as how to assess them on a daily and weekly basis, and make the best training adjustments.  Christian covers this, nutrition, child development and creativity, and much more on this information packed show. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.   Timestamps and Main Points 6:25  Christian’s recent thoughts on child development 12:25  The importance of creativity in early age, and how to cultivate it in developmental stages 28:45 Overview and updates of the neurotyping system from a perspective of COMT, serotonin, adrenaline and methylation 53:15 Muscle tone, neuro-types and training splits 1:17.55 The role of carbohydrates, cortisol and adrenaline in training Quotes “Any type of blue light or screen time is the number one enemy to child development” “You will always have what I call grinders… they will never become the stars, and the stars are those that have that little extra something, and that comes from creativity” “That’s one trait of high acetylcholine individuals, they will be more creative” “Some people will break down adrenaline super-fast, and if they can do that, they can tolerate a lot more training stimulus.  That is why some people naturally can tolerate a boatload of volume” “COMT is the enzyme that breaks down adrenaline.  The one that is fast will break down adrenaline very quickly after release, on the other hand if I have someone with a slow variation of the COMT enzyme, when you release adrenaline it stays high forever” “The type 3 is very similar to the type 1a from a genetic perspective.  Both have poor methylation, both have slow COMT, they don’t clear out adrenaline fast” “Carbohydrates control adrenaline” “The 1B is only aggressive under high adrenaline… they will be super chill until it counts” “The 1B if he fails he will just try again.  The 2A, looking foolish is destructive, because what others think of him is super important” “Anxiety is nothing more than your brain firing too fast for you to control it” “That person (who has high muscle tone) always has high adrenaline.  To me that person has slow COMT, he doesn’t break down adrenaline fast” “9 times out of 10 what we call overtraining is a desensitization of the beta-adrenergic receptors”

If the goal is important enough to you then you can usually pull out all the stops to get there. I am sure we have all done it at some point, the restrictive diet, increased exercise and no social life period, in the quest to get leaner, fitter and stronger, however when the goal is no longer there why do so many people end up back at square 1 and feeling demotivated and confused.I am joined by Charlie Francis who is a health and fitness coach and we discuss some of the hacks you can use to ensure you stay relatively in shape year-round whilst still being able to live your life.We talk about what the social athlete looks like, mistakes they might currently be making and dissect some of the B/S in the fitness industry that people are wasting there money on all for a quick fix.Enjoy the show and be sure to check out Charlie here@charliefrancisfitnessEnjoy the show

Today’s episode features track and sports performance coach, Ross Jeffs.  Ross is a sprints, jumps and hurdles coach at the Aspire Academy in Doha, Qatar.  He formerly worked in the Netherlands as a sprints and jumps coach at Atletiek Trainingscentrum Rotterdam, and has also coached under the guidance of Jonas Dodoo within the Speedworks system.   Ross has also worked with a number of athletes from a range of sports including a grand slam tennis player, professional boxers, Olympic medallists from basketball and rugby sevens, and World Cup finalists in rugby.  Ross appeared on the podcast recently in episode 145. In the training of athletes, be it in track and field or team sports, not all athletes respond to the same stimulus in the same way.  Give 20 random athletes a diet of fast sprinting and heavy weightlifting, and some will respond amazingly well to it, others average, and some poorly.  The same thing could be said of a plyometric focused program, as well as other types of setups.  I first remember this idea of individualization in reading how the late Charlie Francis had mentioned some athletes liking heavy lifting, others plyometrics and bounding, while others responded well to the use of tempo training.  Since then, I’ve been able to dig into things like Christian Thibaudeau’s neurotyping system, as well as Ross Jeff’s “trainers vs. racers” ideas on designing programs for athletes based on how far or close they can get to their competitive best in a practice environment. Ross Jeffs is one of my favorite coaches and thinkers when it comes to training setups and organization to get the most out of athletes.  He is continually asking questions and getting outside the box in order to help coaches and athletes understand training, adaptation and peaking better.  Our conversation focus today is on sprinting, and how the differences of “concentric oriented”, “elastic oriented” or “metabolic oriented” are going to impact how these athletes are best trained and coached.  This episode is also incredibly valuable for team sport coaches, where there is guaranteed to be more diversity than in a single track and field event in the process of coaching. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.   Timestamps and Main Points 3:20 An overview of Ross’s classifications of concentric, elastic and metabolic sprinters 18:15 How the different sprint types (concentric, elastic, metabolic) might fit with Christian Thibaudeau’s neurotyping system 26:00 The squatted element of how concentric runners tend to enjoy the weightroom, squatting, and are better at sprinting and accelerating with lower centers of mass 30:30 How to help concentric dominant athletes become better at their weakness, which is top-end velocity running 35:25 Unpacking the need for variety in rhythmic upright running in elastic runners 49:10 Strength training ideas in regards to elastic sprinters 53:40 Metabolic sprinters and stride length/frequency concepts 56:10 How big of a factor nature vs. nurture is in the different types of sprinters 1:00:10 Rules of thumb in training strengths versus weaknesses based on sprint type 1:03.00 Thoughts on sprint typing and working in team sports 1:06.25 If the ideas of “trainers” vs. “racers” fits into the sprint typing model at all Quotes “Concentric sprinters run fast because of their strong strength and power capabilities.  These are usually your 60m and 100m specialists.  They perform very well in countermovement jumps and have a deeper lowering phase” “Concentric sprinters prefer less lactic tempo running” “They like to do jumps which utilize long stretch shortening cycle mechanisms” “They also seem to respond well to full-range heay movement” “When we sprint and strike the ground, the majority of energy is produced by the lower limb an...

Matt and Scott chat with John Welbourn, a 10-year NFL veteran (Eagles, Chiefs, Patriots) and an excellent strength and coaching coach as well. John's football career ended almost as soon as it started when he sustained a severe knee injury in the first game of his rookie season. Failing to find good training and rehab advice from the traditional medical and PT routes, John took his rehab into his own hands and sought advice from a number of progressively minded doctors and strength coaches.   One particular coach, Charlie Francis, encouraged him to start aggressive electro-stimulation therapy (EMS) to regain function in his surgically repaired knee. Meanwhile he managed his diet carefully, and walked into the following season significantly bigger, stronger, and leaner -- weighing well over 300lbs at sub 10% bodyfat. Although it took another year to regain his speed and agility, the non-traditional rehab approach paid off, leading John to a decade long career before retiring in 2008.   Following retirement, John founded his training company Power Athlete and began working with Greg Glassman to develop Crossfit Football, using a blend of classic barbell training, explosive movements, and high-intensity interval training to develop better football athletes. Since then he has continued to expand his knowledge and train a wide variety of athletes at Power Athlete HQ, where he offers private coaching, custom programming, nutrition guidance, and educational material for coaches.   You can follow John Welbourn on Instagram @johnwelbourn, read his blog at Power Athlete HQ, and read more humorous musings as well as get training advice from his alter ego at JohhnieWOD.   Discounts Whip your email inbox into shape with Sanebox!

Today’s episode features track coach Tony Holler, famous for his “Feed the Cats” training system for high school sprinters.  He is also the coach of Marcellus Moore, a rising junior and one of the top sprinters in the nation with a 100m personal best of 10.31 ran as a high school sophomore.   Tony is a teacher and coach at Plainfield North High School with 35 years experience coaching football, basketball, and track.  He is a member of Illinois Track & Field Hall of Fame and appeared on episode #61 where he spoke on his essentials of the “Feed the Cats” sprint philosophy that prioritizes maximal speed training, rest and low-dosage work.   Training is much more than X’s and O’s, as the environment coaches create has a massive impact on the athlete.  The environment the “Feed the Cats”/Rank-Record-Publish model provides for Tony’s sprinters is so powerful, it has drawn the interest of not only other sports, but also interest to it’s application of life in general (especially on my end). Recently, Tony put out an article highlighting his experience implementing the “Bigger Faster Stronger” strength training program and how has related the “PR” model that BFS incorporates into his speed training this year.  Setting a practice or competition PR is powerful, and Tony has great insight on ways to harness this. We also get into topics on coaching phenoms, strength training and the nuts and bolts of a training environment that is maximally conducive to speed building.   Check out Tony's "Feed the Cats" DVD with Championship Productions. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.   Key Points How “Feed the Cats” and “Rank, Record, Publish” has filtered into football and basketball coaching Recent lessons Tony has gained from training a phenom (Marcellus Moore 10.31 100m dash as a HS sophomore) How kids doing what they like (instead of what they are forced to do) is a game changer How Tony got to his position where he doesn’t utilize weight training for his sprinters and his background in Bigger Faster Stronger Bigger, faster, stronger and the concept of “constant PR’s” in training Tony’s “speed cycle” in sprint training that was inspired by BFS How to maintain dopamine levels through training structure What Tony has been doing with X-Factor training recently Tony Holler Quotes “Prioritize speed #1, prioritize rest #2, those are the two fundamental principles of feed the cats” “(Marcellus) is much smoother, much more consistent.  His top end speed hasn’t improved much, but he holds it a lot better…. He hasn’t missed a race in 2 years… he is the opposite of a flexible kid” “Most of the time, phenoms are the hardest kids to coach” “Cats have fun racing somebody, they have fun running the fastest 10m fly they’ve ever run” “Cats don’t run 3 miles, and they don’t see “now what” either.  They like to get out of practice early” “Kids are really really good at what they like; they wouldn’t cheat it they liked what they did.  They’ll read like crazy if they like what they are reading” “The further away from kids in education you get, the more money you make” “The grind is not the right religion for people; instead we need to get really good at things that we love” “My non-football players don’t lift after practice, but I tell them to do 100 pushups a day.  Looking frail is no way to live your life” “I do like strength, I just don’t see a difference in between kids who lift in their sprinting, and kids who don’t lift in their sprinting, if there was a difference, I would change my mind” “When you micro-dose, you’ll never ruin the next day, and that’s critical to “Feed the Cats” “When we micro-dose in the weight room, we would lift, but we would not lift to soreness… Charlie Francis said you should never be sore fro...

Today to sit down and discuss coaching, commonalities with great athletics coaches, and Bondarchuck and his methods with Derek Evely. After a quick intro we discuss the top athletics coaches he’s been around and where there are commonalities within many of these top minds in the field (Charlie Francis, Dan Pfaff, and Dr. Bondarchuck). One of those similarities is staying out of that “middle ground” and Derek shares with us what that is, where it fits, and why it gets in the way with some aspects of training. He then discusses programming, and where the mistakes people make who are trying to implement Dr. B’s methods with athletes.

Lo que te quiero decir es que tu sensación subjetiva de lo duro que es un entrenamiento no vale para nada. Lo que importa es lo que la ciencia tiene que decir de forma objetiva sobre el entrenamiento y el cambio en la composición corporal. El entrenamiento HIIT deja a las personas tiradas en el suelo en un charco de sudor con la sensación de que si dura un `poco más hubieran muerto. En este artículo, propongo una forma más inteligente de entrenamiento, que debería tener un mayor efecto sobre la resistencia y los efectos de la composición corporal a largo plazo. Este entrenamiento de repetición de alta intensidad (HIRT) puede no "sentirse" tan bien, pero tus sentimientos no importan. Historia de HIIT El entrenamiento por intervalos con intensidades altas ha existido desde hace muchos años. El punto de inflexión del HIIT parece haber venido con la investigación del Dr. Izumi Tabata. ¿Te suena de algo el apellido del japonés? Pues a principios de la década de los 90’, colaboró ??con Irisawa Koichi, el entrenador del equipo japonés de patinaje de velocidad que había desarrollado un protocolo de ráfagas cortas y máximas de sprints seguidas de cortos períodos de descanso. Esta ráfaga máxima corta mejoró y mantuvo el rendimiento máximo en atletas de élite de patinaje de velocidad. Tabata quería probar el protocolo con atletas de diferentes niveles. El documento inicial de Tabata de 1996 examinó dos grupos de hombres atléticos aficionados de veintitantos años: El primer grupo remó en un ergómetro (que es el nombre técnico de las máquinas de remo) durante sesenta minutos a intensidad moderada (70% del VO2 máx). Similar a una sesión de carrera contínua o lo que se ha denominado trabajo de larga distancia lenta (LIIS). O Low Intensity Steady State. O correr al trote cochinero. El segundo grupo remó durante 20 segundos, seguido de 10 segundos de descanso, durante 4 minutos (completando 8 series en total) al máximo esfuerzo. La clave es el esfuerzo máximo, ya que se esperaba que cada intervalo fuera un sprint. Si el atletas no podía mantener los requisitos de velocidad, se para en la 7ª serie.. Ambos grupos entrenaron durante 5 días a la semana por un total de 5 horas a la semana o 20 minutos. El protocolo duró 6 semanas. HIIT versus HIRT - Fitness, VO2 Max, HIIT, entrenamiento de intervalos de alta intensidad, atp, HIRT, tabata, entrenamiento de alta intensidad, Intervalos Burgomaster y Gibala, ADP Como se esperaba, el grupo de Sprint de estilo Tabata mejoró su rendimiento mientras que el grupo de larga duración no lo hizo. Estos resultados tienen sentido dado que los sprints usan muchos más procesos anaeróbicos. Los resultados del consumo de oxígeno, que es una medida de la eficiencia de las personas en las actividades aeróbicas (cuanto más oxígeno podamos captar, más eficientes serán nuestros procesos aeróbicos). Ambos grupos mejoraron en esta medida de manera similar. Este resultado se esperaba para el grupo de larga duración ya que estaban entrenando específicamente para este objetivo. El resultado para el grupo que hizo sprints es lo que sorprendió, ya que mejoraron de manera similar. Por lo tanto, parece que un entrenamiento Tabata de intensidad máxima de cuatro minutos tiene los mismos beneficios aeróbicos que un entrenamiento de intensidad moderada de sesenta minutos. Esta noticia fue bastante impactante en cuanto a que podría obtener beneficios de dos en uno solo con un entrenamiento de cuatro minutos. Aquí es donde empieza la revolución del HIIT. Posibles problemas con HIIT Los sprints de máximo esfuerzo son un componente clave para los entrenamientos de Tabata. Muchas personas tienen dificultades para mantener el máximo esfuerzo durante 20 segundos en 8 series. Por lo que muy pocas personas realmente hacen un entrenamiento de estilo Tabata. Hay muchos entrenamientos "inspirados por Tabata" que duran de 20 minutos a 60 minutos. Estas mutaciones de los protocolos de Tabata siempre llevan a un menor esfuerzo en cada intervalo. Los protocolos de estilo Tabata han demostrado ser beneficiosos a corto plazo. El alto estrés en el cuerpo puede hacer que se adapte al deshacerse de las mitocondrias que funcionan mal y reemplazarlas. Esto es la mitofagia. Los problemas vienen cuando lo haces por largos períodos de tiempo. El alto estrés de estos entrenamientos puede tener efectos perjudiciales a largo plazo como la degradación de las mitocondrias. Demasiado de algo bueno se convierte en algo malo (Ramos-Filho 2015). Intervalos Burgomaster y Gibala Kirsten Burgomaster y Martin Gibala han modificado los protocolos de esfuerzo máximo de Tabata. La gran diferencia en sus protocolos de Tabata es que permiten un descanso más largo (4 minutos), pero también intervalos de trabajo más largos (30 segundos de esfuerzo máximo). Parece que son solo 10 segundos más. Pero primero es un 50%. Y segundo 30 segundos a intensidad máxima “real”, pero real de verdad, es mucha tela. Igual que la investigación original de Tabata, Burgomaster y Gibala han encontrado beneficios para los sistemas aeróbicos y anaeróbicos. Otros han encontrado beneficios en la pérdida de grasa. Aquí hay un artículo donde dice que: Cuatro minutos de descanso permiten que se recupere más nuestro sistema de ATP y fosfato de creatina y pueden proporcionar un mejor rendimiento en los intentos de esfuerzo máximo. Un beneficio importante de los intervalos Burgomaster y Gibala es que activa la vía AMPK que es responsable de la mejora mitocondrial. En pocas palabras, cuando agotamos rápidamente nuestras reservas de ATP (adenosin trifosfato), creamos ADP (adenosín difosfato) y después AMP (adenosín monofosfato) Cada iteración tiene una molécula menos de fosfato, desde trifosfato a difosfato. Y de difosfato a monofosfato. Nuestro cuerpo usa la relación ATP / AMP para señalizar AMPK, que luego conduce a más mitocondrias para procesar las demandas extremas de energía El estudio donde lo dice. ATP -> ADP + energía -> AMP + energía Un solo sprint de 30 segundos aumenta la relación AMP / ATP en hasta 21 veces. Sin embargo, estamos a un paso entre el crecimiento mitocondrial y desgarrando el marco de nuestro sistema de energía. Una vez que llegamos a AMP, podemos arrancar el último fosfato y toda la estructura se rompe. Ya no tenemos una estructura para agregar fosfatos. Algunos de los mayores daños de un ataque al corazón se producen después de que el oxígeno regresa al corazón Te dejo un estudio. El corazón ha usado todo el fosfato y las mitocondrias comienzan a producir radicales libres, ya que no hay suficientes marcos de adenosina ribosa para aceptar moléculas de fosfato. Con demasiado tiempo de entrenamiento intenso, realmente comenzamos a producir amoníaco a medida que la molécula de AMP se descompone. Así que el tiempo es importante. El descanso más largo de los protocolos de Gibala y Brugomaster es bueno. Pero para algunos atletas, podría estar causando demasiado daño a las moléculas de adenosina en intervalos de 30 segundos. Se podría mejorar estos protocolos acortando los intervalos de trabajo, lo que permite recuperarnos más rápido y tanta cantidad de ácido láctico. Entrenamiento de repetición de alta intensidad (HIRT) El entrenamiento por intervalos se diferencia del entreno por repeticiones en cuando ocurre la recuperación. En el HIIT, la recuperación es incompleta, por lo que el próximo intervalo comienza cuando ya estás fatigado. Esta recuperación incompleta conduce a una disminución en el rendimiento después de cada intervalo. El entrenamiento HIRT permiten mantener la intensidad máxima durante todos y cada uno de los intervalos. HIRT reduce el estrés a largo plazo en el cuerpo que tiene el entrenamiento HIIT. El componente clave de HIRT es mantener el esfuerzo y la intensidad en cada intervalo. Charlie Francis, entrenador de muchos velocistas olímpicos de récord mundial, era conocido por maximizar los intervalos de descanso, por lo que cada sprint podría ser mejor o al menos igual al sprint anterior. El descanso era vital para que la gente pudiera "repetir" su actuación, y no ver cómo se degradan. Pavel Tsatsouline, quien popularizó el uso de las kettlebells en Occidente. Es conocido por su entrenamiento de fuerza, pero su trabajo reciente sobre resistencia ha tenido algunos descubrimientos interesantes. El trabajo reciente de Pavel en fuerza-resistencia modifica los intervalos de descanso y las duraciones de trabajo para maximizar los efectos del trabajo de alta intensidad. Los participantes pueden mantener la intensidad durante la duración de la sesión en sus protocolos. En la mayoría de sus protocolos, mantiene el trabajo en alrededor de 10 segundos o menos, por lo que la recuperación puede ocurrir mucho más rápido. Un ejemplo es el EMOM de Crossfit. EMOM: every minute on a minute. Sería hacer diez swing con Kettlebells cada minuto durante unos 10 minutos. Por poner algo con kettlebells La clave es tener la máxima en cada serie. En resumen clave para HIRT: La persona debe ser capaz de repetir el rendimiento de alta intensidad. Si no se puede repetir, la sesión de entrenamiento debe finalizar o se necesita más descanso. La intensidad es la clave. El objetivo es practicar los ejercicios con intensidad máxima durante un período corto de tiempo. No te preocupe por tus sentimientos de culpa por no entrenar más tiempo. Hacer más series de las marcadas no te ayudará en el largo plazo. La duración del trabajo debe ser de entre 5 a 15 segundos. Los intervalos de tiempo más largos llevarán a una disminución del rendimiento y la necesidad de un descanso más prolongado Gibala necesita 4 minutos de descanso durante 30 segundos de trabajo. Mantener el tiempo de trabajo corto permite un esfuerzo máximo y un rendimiento Mayor. Se necesitan generosos intervalos de descanso. Durante 10 segundos de trabajo, debe haber aproximadamente 45 segundos de descanso como mínimo. Elije ejercicios con poco riesgo de lesión y con capacidad de mantener la intensidad máxima. Sprint es una dificultad para muchas personas. Además, la potencia en un sprint solo se puede maximizar durante los primeros segundos del sprint. Una bicicleta estática es mejor y probablemente más seguro para un principiante. Los remeros o la natación también son buenas alternativas. Para los avanzados con buena técnica para hacer movimientos olímpicos o como poco swings con kettlebell también funciona muy bien. La clave es la capacidad de hacerlo con la máxima potencia. El volumen varía según los objetivos. Si tu objetivo es la fuerza máxima, entonces hacer ejercicio HIRT una o dos veces a la semana puede ser lo mejor. Si tu objetivo es construir una mayor resistencia, entonces de cuatro a cinco días a la semana es lo que necesitas.. No piense en HIRT como una forma de desarrollar fuerza. Debes ser fuerte primero. Y luego aplicar estos protocolos. Un protocolo de muestra Esprinta durante 8 segundos lo máximo posible. Mide la distancia que has recorrido. Tienes que mantener esa distancia en cada sprint. Haz un sprint cada minuto durante4 a 10 minutos. Si no puede mantener la distancia, la sesión de entrenamiento está completa y necesitas descansos más largos la próxima sesión de entrenamiento. Varía el volumen de cada sesión haciendo días de volumen medio, alto y bajo.

He's BACK!!!! Fuck YES!!!!My main Man Pat Davidson is back on the show to discuss everything about his epic ebook MASS 2. This is only Part 1 of a number of episodes that Pat and I will be dedicating to MASS 2. On this episode Pat and I discuss: Whats new with Pat We discuss creativity How MASS 2 came to be? Pat and I discuss the gift of the "Addict Brain" and dopamine Pat shares with us the 3 movies that inspired the conception of MASS 2 Pat shares with us how Mike Boyle, Val Nsedkin, Roman Fomin, Charlie Francis and Cal Dietz greatly influence the design of MASS 2 Pat and I discuss the hormone hypothesis of hypertrophy, and how it would seem that hormones are not as critical to the overall mucsle growth process as was once believed We discuss the microcycle set up utilized with MASS 2 which is a 4 day/ week set up that incorporates a 2 or 1.5 developmental days, a stimulution day, and an alactic-aerobic day Pat discusses the importance of recovery days for the upregulation of parasympathetic activity within MASS 2. Here we discuss how important social support is, and the work of Stephen Porges and his Polyvagul Theory We discuss how an excessive parasympathetic state can be detrimental to health and performance We discuss the molecular mechanism of protein synthessis involved in muscle mass accredition   This was an outstanding episode with my brother from another mother and I hope you all enjoy it as much as we did!

Derek is a Canadian coach who was mentored by Charlie Francis and is well-respected as one of the top speed and strength experts in the world.   He wrote the chapter on speed training in the book “High Performance Training for Sports”, which many sports performance professionals are familiar with. If you haven’t noticed, a recurring theme on this podcast is that of strength, speed and power development.  I’m happy to have Derek on due to his long-running experience in strength and conditioning and track and field. As with most experienced and successful coaches, Derek has taken a lot of complicated ideas and funneled them down to simple and effective principles.  Today on the show, we talk about Derek’s philosophy in application towards linear speed testing, sprint drills, general vs. specific strength, bar speed monitoring, and more. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. Key Points: The value of testing linear speed in field sports The evaluation process of athletes for speed Derek’s take on sprint drills and transfer to speed performance Ideas on specific vs. general strength training for building speed and power The potential of negative transfer in barbell training for the sake of speed Bar speed monitoring and its application (or contraindications) for sport performance Role of building muscle hypertrophy in speed development Scope of using the Olympic lifts in speed and team sport development given that there is time for coaches to teach athletes the lifts with an appropriate proficiency Quotes: “I just like to see people sprint, and see what they look like” “If all you did was time people to 10 yards, you would have a good amount of information, if you timed to them to 20, even more” “There’s a bit of a show to (the NFL combine)” “To get the time, you get some information, but if you actually see how they run the 40 or any linear sprint distance, it’s important to me, because it tells me, one what their preparation was.  It tells me how efficient they are going to be.  If someone expends a lot of energy and is very tight running the 40, it tells me how efficient they are going to be in their sport.  It tells me they may not be as effective in their sport, because they might not have as much control over their body.  It may determine their change of direction abilities if they are not relaxed in a maximal linear sprint” “Some of the things that we look at in the 40 yard dash subjectively should dovetail with what (sport coaches) are looking at on the field and have some commonalities so that we can arrive at the same place and provide value to the athlete.  Everyone wants to test well, but ultimately are they playing well on the field and are you winning games.” “If I’m working with a younger or novice group, sprint drills are good for posture, limb mechanics to some degree, and useful for general strengthening in a lot of cases” “They are particularly good if you are working with teams in a confined space” “Drill might not be necessary because they are doing more damage than good; I had a 10.5 sprinter who couldn’t do a skipping “A”.  His running technique wasn’t bad, this drill was just going to make things worse and frustrate him, so we got rid of that drill” “Drills are either active (teaching) or reactive (corrective drills)” “I’ve found significant improvements in changing and retaining technique when I video movement and athletes can watch it on their own” “If you work with track and field, you don’t really look at the weight room as the answer, you look at it as a part,

Our guest for episode #4 of the Just Fly Performance Podcast is Tyrone Edge, a level 5 IAAF coach, working with the Phoenix Athletic Club in Ontario Canada.  Edge works with athletes of all levels of development, from youth to national competitors. He is a true student of speed training, and has extensive experience in the methodology of Charlie Francis and his work at the Optimist track club. I love talking to Canadian sprint coaches, as they have a great sport culture, and know their stuff well.   In this interview, we cover topics such as: The long to short sprint debate, and weather based considerations The use of “up-back” sprinting in speed development Speed training in cold-weather conditions The importance of training environment and camps How to run a training camp on a low budget Grass running, and why it is of importance in speed development Environmental considerations in training athletes Detaching from technology in the pursuit of better health and increased athletic abilities Thoughts on youth athletic development in light of modern physical education Tyrone is also putting on a great event, called the World Speed Summit, featuring 17 of the top minds in the industry in regards to speed and power training, recovery, nutrition, sport psychology, and more.  You can access the talks for free by following this link: Get Free Access Quotes from the show: “One of the things I picked up from Charlie Francis… the mesomorph is going to respond better to short to long speed/power program with more lifting.  The ectomorph tends to be better off on a “hard work” program… could be long to short, or blended, there are lots of ways to do this” “Your environment is going to dictate what’s a possibility and what’s not” “That’s something I straight learned from Charlie Francis, stay on the soft surfaces as long as you can (for sprint training)” (regarding training camps) “The farther away you can get from society, the better” “Parents want to see little Timmy score more goals, but that’s not what little Timmy needs.  Timmy needs to go to gymnastics, and learn to have as big of a motor patterning base as he can have, so when he gets a little bit older and stronger, and decides what sport he likes the most, he can be an actual athlete, and can actually do something” “There is not nearly enough general athletic development going on in youth populations” “Kids need to be in gymnastics, swimming, run-jump and throw programs”

In this edition of The Podcast I get to sit down and talk with 2016 Presenter Derek Hansen. In the 45 minute discussion we go over how track and field has influenced his career in physical preparation, how Charlie Francis impacted him professionally, his opinion of monitoring and the direction he sees it going, some misinterpretations of Charlie Francis that coaches have today, and what we are to expect this July at The 2016 Seminar.

Scott Umberger, Co-Owner and Head Physical Preperation Coach at Umberrger Performance   Topics Covered in this Podcast How Scott got started in the field Basical Philosphy of Developmeing ther Athlete Social Media's influence on the profession One of the issues with CrossFit and Coaching Training youth athletes The nature of youth sports Asseesment and evaluation of Athletes Sprint and deceleration mechanics APRE procotocl in the private sector Scott’s passion for performance enhancement started at an early age, stemmed by his desire to receive a Division I scholarship.   Sports Science Knowledge   One year interning at University of Pittsburgh under renowned coach, Buddy Morris changed everything. After working with Buddy,Scott spent two years working as Todd Hamer’s Assistant Strength & Condition Coach at Robert Morris University training 600 of their athletes.   The influence of James Smith, who is regarded as the leading American expert on Soviet Sport Science,  led Scott to an understanding of Sports Science held by handful of Americans.  Since Sport Science doesn’t exist in the U.S.(Scott confirmed this during his exploration of a PhD at PSU).  Scott’s knowledge has been obtained via mentorships, self study of his small library of translated foreign materials, videos, seminars with foreign Sports Scientist, and personal correspondence with leading experts and Sport Scientists.  This knowledge of non-U.S. Sports Science is essential because of the understanding of human performance that this non US research has uncovered through the study of 20,000+ elite athletes.  The funding for this kind of research does not exist in the US.  This monetary investment in Sport Science research is one of the very few ways that the world can be thankful towards communistic regimes.   Speed   Attempting to “get the edge” on the competition, Scott read and has tried everything that he could get his hands on.  Taken under the wing of D1 track coach, Waddie Freeman his senior year of high school, Scott reduced his 40 yard dash time from 4.6 to 4.4. Scott played football, baseball, and ran track in high school. This led him to compete at the Division I level in football and track at Robert Morris University.  Scott’s personal experience teamed with his extensive knowledge of the late sprint coach Charlie Francis’s methodologies present a very unique mix of knowledge and practice experience regarding speed development.   Strength   Scott spent three months training at the strongest powerlifting gym in the U.S., Westside Barbell.  There he gained an advanced knowledge of the three powerlifts, the bench, the squat, and the dead lift.  He also learned about the concept of strength and its application to specific athletic scenarios. Scott currently competes in the sport of power lifting and has dead lifted 635 and bench pressed 420 in competitions. He has also squatted 645 and bench pressed 505 in training at a drug free body weight of 192.   Resume   As part of his 17,000 hours in the trenches training experience, Scott has worked with over a 2,000 athletes and clients: • high school and college athletes • Male and female athletes in hockey, lacrosse, soccer, volleyball, football, basketball, softball, baseball, swimming, tennis, track. • Fitness/figure competitors • REAL Professional athletes (NHL, NFL, Arena Football , MLL&NLL-pro Lacrosse, World Championship Games.) • Olympic Silver Medalist- USA Olympic Woman’s Hockey Team • 3 All-Americans (track, swimming, hockey) • 2 Hobe Baker Trophy Finalist (Heisman Trophy of College Hockey) • A top 10 NCAA scorer in Men’s Hockey • FINA Master World Championship Qualifying Swimmer • ECAC/IC4A qualifying track hurdler • Professional Hockey, Basketball, and Soccer players in Europe(Finland and Italy) • Two Major D1 walk on football players- one who made OSU’s team when they were ranked #1 and WVU when they were top in the 20. • Celebrities- Country Music Superstar Martina McBride and Actor Jake Gyllenhaal   Scott practices what he preaches.  Research is fantastic but it is useless if it’s not applied in a real world setting.  Scott studies and applies knowledge on himself before having his athletes use it.  He’s squatted 650 lbs, dead lifted 635 lbs in competitions and bench pressed 505 in the gym at a body weight ranging between 190-200 lbs.  In August of 2013 he completed a Tough Mudder Race(which is consider the most legit race of it’s kind in the US) which is a 12 mile “mud run” with 20+ obstacles.   Though it’s Scott’s formal education(BS, MS) that enhanced his abilities as a coach, it’s the intensive study of  ”The Soviet Sports Science,” as well as Sport Science stemming from sources outside of the United States(primarily Premier League Soccer and Australian Sports Science) that have really separated him from the majority of the field.   Real world success with real athletes using his “in trenches training experience,”  as well as a unique blend of leadership and knowledge of legitimate non US Sport Science makes Scott a rare commodity as a physical preparation coach in the US.
