Podcast appearances and mentions of dave kerin

Today's podcast is with David Kerin. Dave is the USATF chair of men's development, and also chair for men's and women's high jump.  Dave's coaching career began with 14 years at the HS level followed by 14 years of collegiate coaching where an athlete set a still-standing NCAA DIII championship record in women's high jump.   A requested speaker and published author, he is perhaps best known for his work: “What is the most direct means to achieve strength gains specific to the demands of jumping events”, as well as the popular article: “Fixing the Right Problem”.  David appeared originally back on episode #58 of the podcast in its “classic” days. Curvilinear sprinting is a critical aspect of sport movement, and is also becoming more popular in training, and for good reason.  Lateral and rotational aspects of movement are not only critical for sport, but also engage a greater fullness of the body in a training environment. On today's podcast, David goes into the defining elements of curvilinear sprinting, and what this means, not only for track and field high jump, but athletic movements in general.  He also gets into the importance of observing and coaching athletic movement from a 3D perspective, and gives ideas on how to do so, as well as the evolution that technology is making in that direction.  Today's podcast gives us a wonderful perspective on a more complete picture of athletic movement and performance.

"Into angular momentum (in curve running), because the progressive increase in the Fibonacci number, acceleration angles of redirection, you've got an acceleration in the middle. It's a spiral effect where you're speeding up." “"The analogy would be the figure skater at the big finish when they start spinning and they've extend their arms and as they draw into the center line or the long axis of the body, they accelerate. So it's not linear acceleration in the traditional sense, yet you are increasing velocity of the plant by leaning on angular momentum. So again, whether it's running the bases, whether it's the NBA player trying to turn the corner, whether it's guy on the soccer pitch or the receiver running the pattern,

Loads of union news and an interview I did with Dave Kerin from Earthworker Cooperative about why they believe we need to move our economy away from militarism.

24th August 2020Produced by Andy Britt and Vivien LangfordUNIONS,FIRST NATIONS AND STUDENTS."IN STRUGGLE LIES STRENGTH"BUILD OUR FUTURE:CLIMATE JUSTICE AND JOBSGUESTS:Edie Shepherd - Original PowerGreg Mullins - Emergency leaders for Climate ActionElizabeth Maddox - Author "Category 5"Shoi Sengupta, Laura and Will from Students 4 Climate actionDave Kerin - Co Founder of Earth WorkerThanks also to Tim Davis Franks of TIPPING POINT and Annie Mc Laughlin and Michaela of 3CR for help The next school strike for climate will prove that  Lockdown is a perfect time to turn the tide on climate catastrophe.Keep the date Friday September 25th https://www.schoolstrike4climate.com/buildourfutureSome students are preparing for final year exams, some unionists are out of work but the momentum to face the reality of the climate crisis is still building. September 25th is two weeks b efore our federal budget so this is a chance to push for COVID REcovery which turbo charges the jobs already being powered by clean energy,not new coal or gas. GREG MULLINS speaking to an audience of unionists and students,tells us of the fire seasons ahead. A couple of extra fire fighting planes wont do it. He wants proper financing of Forestry managers skilled in cultural burning and paid year round to manage the forests. He says the fire risk of 850 gaswells in the Pilliga Forest at Narrabri is disgusting. EDIE SHEPHERD talks about the National Covid Commission stacked with fossil fuel bosses and their gas agenda. The NT government wants a gas pipeline from the BEETALOO Basin to the coast despite consistent opposition from Indigenous people."We've been saying no to projects that hurt country"from the Gommeroi in NSW to the Boroloola mob in the Gulf of Carpentaria. She says "harm to our country is harm to us" and unions have a proud history of supporting indigenous struggles. For her the Right wing wont let a good crisis go to waste and  we have to meet the threat of a gas led recovery at scale. SHOI SENGUPTA took time from her year 12 studies to tell us all about September 25th. Its a day of action in Victoria and Qld and a strike in other states.https://www.schoolstrike4climate.com/mp ELIZABETH MADDOX  explains how she witnessed  the build up of momentum in the school where she  teaches. First a few brave students spoke out at assembly, then they invited speakers and held letter writing sessions, then some of them led the big school strikes and now climate action is  mainstream in that school community and growing. She reads also from her novel "Category 5" which is about a French class excursion to the Pacific islands just as a  terrible storm sweeps the Pacific. DAVE KERIN is a builder of the future. It is not all about saying NO. He talks about Co Ops and the way collective ownership prevents the worst of capitalism.As the climate crisis  accelerates, He says of  unionist"We never leave our wounded behind" He is part of the  Powering Melbourne Cooperative Steering Committee - The current Covid-19 crisis provides the opportunity for the Committee to propose a  cooperatively owned utilities concept to the Victorian government. https://earthworkerenergy.coop/As the students say "While our  Government and Members of Parliament rush to protect some of our communities from COVID 19, they continue to leave many people behind, and to protect mining companies and coal, oil and gas projects that threaten our collective future rather than building a better future for us all. "Dave Kerin through his Earth worker heatpumps and solar hot water,made in MORWELL plus  REDGUM cleaning co -op and the co -op housing they are planning is showing the way forward.https://www.foe.org.au/earthworker_april_update The next steps the students are recommending are:PASS MOTION: Pass a motion at your workplace, or within the executive of your union, to endorse the Build Our Future: Climate, Justice, & Jobs day of action. Template motion can be found in the September 25th Union Outreach Guide.LET US KNOW: Send through confirmation of your endorsement of the Build Our Future Day of Action to Tim Davis Frank - tim@tippingpoint.org.au PUBLIC DECLARATION: Send an email to your members and share the action on social media - a public declaration of support from your union would be amazing! The September 25th Promotion Pack has template emails and social squares.ORGANISE AN ACTION: Organise a Covidsafe action for September 25th inside or outside the workplace. Click here to register your action on the website.FUTURE PLANNING: Where possible, set up a committee in your union and elect a climate action representative to coordinate with School Strike 4 Climate in the future and help us plan the next action to achieve a just transition for all workers! The students are standing up again and taking action on September 25th, here in Australia and around the world. A reminder that their demands are are: No public funds for gas and other damaging fossil fuel projects. Instead, recovery funds should be spent on:Resourcing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-led solutions that guarantee land rights and care for country,The creation of jobs that fast-track solutions to the climate crisis and help communities recover,Projects that transition our economy and communities to 100% renewable energy by 2030, through expanded public ownership. The students are inviting all unions to stand beside them once again!

The Builders Laborers Federation was a union in Australia, representing those workers without a trade who did all the hard yards on the building site. Through their strong community links, they heard lots about the effects of inappropriate development on normal folks, and came up with the "Green Ban" as a response. They simply refused to work on projects that were socially or environmentally damaging. The effects of the Green Bans are still around today - the historic district of the rocks in Sydney is only there due to BLF action. The BLF was deregistered by the government of the day, and smashed. One of the things to come out of the rubble was the Earthworker Co-operative, which is designed to transef the ownership and control of work itself into the hands of the workers. We hope you enjoy this interview.

Today’s guest is Dave Kerin, USATF development, men’s and women’s high jump chair.  Dave has been a contributor to Just Fly Sports in the past in the popular squat depth roundtable.  Dave has worked with athletes of many levels, and has great results to his name, including a NCAA DIII championship record holder in high jump. Dave has been a strong influence in my knowledge of high jump, particularly on what it takes to be good on an elite level, and what guys jumping over 2.40m are doing versus guys who are jumping less.  Aside from this, Dave has been a fantastic contributor to generally applicable sport science concepts, such as his work : What is the most direct means to achieve strength gains specific to the demands of jumping events .  Dave is a regular contributor to expert roundtables on the jumping events, and his knowledge of the biomechanics and training concepts for the track and field jumps can be useful for any coach. On today’s podcast, we’ll get into many aspects of track jumps and related training, and ideas that can be universally applied. 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: Dave’s background in track and field Individualizing plyometrics to athletes Finding an athlete’s force/speed profile in context of track jumps Hypertrophy guidelines for jump athletes Single leg jump takeoffs on the ball of the foot Flat foot vs. full foot contacts in plyometrics Predispositions for flop vs. straddle style high jumpers Quotes “A jump is something undertaken from a standing position.  The preponderance in athletic pursuits is not what I would call a jump, it is a deflection” “You have them throw 3 throws with the heaviest (8lb) implement, take the middle performance of the three efforts, then drop down to the 6lb ball, same thing, drop to the 4lb, same thing.   If a person is neurally wired, they should be able to accelerate the lighter implement” “I gotta think that a woman who is going to jump 2 meters in the high jump is going to throw an OHB  (overhead back throw) 15 meters” “I find a lot of commonalities of OHB and high jump” “There are a lot of high jumpers masquerading as long jumpers because they don’t add the third dimension” “In order to jump, you have to sacrifice horizontal velocity to redirect the path of the center of mass” “The greater force we deliver to the ground, the greater potential force we stand to gain on the back side of the vector” “The golden rule is to apply the greatest amount of force, in the greatest range of motion, over the shortest amount of time” “Kids aren’t as universally athletic as they were 20-30 years ago” About Dave Kerin Dave Kerin is the USATF chair of men’s development, and also chair for men’s and women’s high jump.  His time has coincided with a resurgence in the event.  Dave’s coaching career began with 14 years at the HS level followed by 14 years of collegiate coaching where an athlete set a still standing NCAA DIII championship record in women’s high jump.   A requested speaker and published author, he is perhaps best known for his work: “What is the most direct means to achieve strength gains specific to the demands of jumping events”.  He also presented that topic at the 2008 USATF SuperClinic

On April 26, 2017, Dave Kerin, Earthworker Founder, spoke about the rally planned for Friday, 28 April to save Queen Victoria Markets from redevelopment. It runs from 11.30 to 1pm. 513 Elizabeth Street.   Professor Patrick Moriarty, Adjunct Senior Research Fellow at Monash University spoke about the future of energy sources such as fossil and renewable. 

Recorded on 27 November 2009, at Trades Hall, Melbourne for the "Reason in Revolt" project - a fantastic source for the unsung history of social change in Australia. find out about them at: http://www.reasoninrevolt.net.au/index.html Reason in Revolt publish under a "Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 Australia License" to be found at: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/au/ A discussion with Dave Kerin and Gabriel Kuhn on syndicalism in Australia and Sweden. It mainly focuses on the experiences of the IWW (Industrial Workers of the World) in Australia but also makes some comparison with the case of the SAC (Central Organisation of the Workers of Sweden, an anarcho-syndicalist federation). Topics include: History of the IWW in Australia; experiences of the Builders Labourers Federation (BLF) with green bans (in the 1970s) and deregulation (in the 1980s); Union Solidarity - an organisation coordinated by Dave Kerin in the 2000s in Melbourne which mobilised unionists and community members to set up picket lines and other actions in support of aggrieved workers; aims, tactics and philosophy of the IWW; the principles of SAC; the relevance of syndicalism today and in the future for unionism and activism in anti-globalisation, global justice, and climate change movements; developing a worker-owned social sector; and the relationship of syndicalist unions to political parties.

Several weeks ago, The Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) and the Maritime Union of Australia (MUA) began talks about a possible merger in order to create a militant mega union. Shortly afterwards, the Textile, Clothing and Footwear Union (TCFUA)  also began to be involved in the talks. Are we on the verge of seeing the rise of the One Big Union in Australia? Joining us for the show will be Dave Kerin, the project-officer of EarthWorker Cooperative and a former activist with the Builders Labourers' Federation and the CFMEU, and Liz Ross, a long-time union activist, labor historian and the author of "Dare To Struggle, Dare To Win".

Never before has so much money been in the hands of workers. Including Super and Savings, working class people have never had so much economic power. We talk with Dave Kerin form the Earthworker cooperative and Julian Vincent from Market Forces, about money, who owns it, who controls it and what we can do with it to benefit us and not the corporations.

 The past week has seen several front page stories and prominent reports in the media attacking trade unions. We seek out a response from union officials to these attacks. Is there any basis to the allegations made in the media. Who stands to benefit from a demonised and criminalised union movement? Why now? Are these media attacks timed to coincide with federal and state anti democratic legislation before parliaments? We speak with Luke Hilikari, Campaigns Coordinator and Trades Hall, Tim Gooden General Secretary of the The Trades and Labour Council, Geelong, and Dave Kerin, long time union activist and campaigner.
