From my person exeriences, I believe the problem is that athletes aren’t strong enough in the right places. As an example, when I was 27, I could squat 485 ibs at a body weight of 190 and I couldn’t dunk. After reanalyzing technique, my i dropped the weight. Today I’m 32 and I full squat 315 at a body weight of 175. I can dunk with too hands. I just feel like athletes cheat on lifts and they’re not stressing the correct muscles for speed. No amount of speed work got me me to be more explosive. Only when I began to lift with proper form and muscle activation did improve.
like poetry that reads. truth.
I'd been thinking about this thread in recent days; as a powerlifter, I tend to overdo the assistance work to some degree - I've started to drop weight and up the reps, I'm finding it's surprisingly harder going than I thought it would be.
Kind of feels like I'm cheating until I hit rep 15 and my arms or legs are burning. It'll be interesting to see what effect if any it has on my numbers or bodyweight.
A strength-training program, properly designed, can elicit a cardiovascular response that equals or surpasses that achieved through traditional means.
Apologies if it's not already posted but is there any chance you post up such a program?
