Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description
Bob Thurnhoffer returns to discuss the balance between specialization and athletic versatility and the role of variability in high-level speed and power development.
Bob shares his approach to coordination-based strength training, balancing linear progression with movement exploration, and creating both competitive and learning-focused practice environments.
He also discusses practical applications of velocity-based training, Olympic lifting, and sprint technology, including how variable resistance can help athletes bridge the gap between acceleration and maximal velocity.
