Movement dysfunctions primarily occur when there is a reduction in motor activity or impaired length-tension relationships that create altered movement patterns. These can affect both gross motor skills (ie. walking, throwing, running) and fine motor skills (ie. writing, turning objects, gripping utensils).

The cycle of movement dysfunction generally starts with of a lack of stability and muscle stiffness in a localized area of the body. If it persists the impairment develops causing greater strength imbalances, potentially altering tissues further to the point that pain is persistent.

Understanding how this cycle works helps us to assess and properly treat the impairments. If we can identify the misalignments and movements worsening the issue, we can correct them overtime and return to a proficient state.

Great systematic review released on the trends being seen with high speed running (HSR) and sprinting. Both are considered key determinants for successful performances in field and court sports alike. I’d love your feedback on what you’re doing as far as training/tracking modalities.

As coaches in sports that need to address these high speed concerns, how are you tracking workloads leading into competitions?

I could not be happier for this group of Marines. Two weeks ago we sent this small group over to the west coast for the 2023 Marine Corps Trials. These 3 showed out for powerlifting. 9/9 on lifts with 3 gold medals to show for it. Hell of a lifting day. Now it’s time to get back to work.

In the coming weeks I’ll be sitting down with Capt. Hairston as he talks about his journey as an adaptive athlete. He is the first ever para-cyclist to compete from the US Virgin Islands and runs a non-profit that provides adaptive sport opportunities for those in need.

Share this post to spread the word and make sure to follow Capt. Hairston .vi and stay tuned for the date and time of the interview.

Ever wonder what’s going on in your body after a tough workout? Or in my case and many others, what’s going on in the bodies of the people we train?

Don’t just do things to do things in the weight room. Have a goal or goals in mind and figure out the best possible program that will meet them. Do right for your athletes and they will do right by you.

🔰It is believed that progressive training involving explosive exercises enhances an athlete’s ability to generate higher rates of force during their sporting events.

❇️The effectiveness of explosive training is related to how well it affects the following six force generating capabilities❇️

1️⃣Motor Unit Recruitment: Our bodies generally recruit motor units in a sequential order, from smaller to larger thresholds, based off force demands. Explosive training seems to train the larger motor units to contract with/before the lower threshold units. This allows the athlete to be more explosive and powerful.

2️⃣Rate Coding: Explosive training seems to enhance rate coding. The force being generated increases without additional motor units. This allows for the stimulation of more motor units at higher velocities or higher force outputs.

3️⃣Synchronization: There is an interplay between motor unit recruitment and rate coding. Neural synchronization from explosive training has the ability to create stronger force contractions with less latency, which leads to more efficient recruitment of motor units.

4️⃣Neural Inhibition: CNS inhibition limits an athlete’s ability to produce force. The muscle contractions become slower and weaker. Remember that explosive training at higher intensities will fatigue the CNS.

5️⃣Cross-Sectional Area of Muscle: Explosive resistance training is associated with hypertrophy of type-II muscle fibers. This will lead to improvements in rate of force development at these muscles. Much of these effects from training seem to be related to the athlete’s training status.

6️⃣Motor Unit Type: Motor units recruit all muscle fibers that connect to it. All these muscle fibers are the same type (type-I slow twitch, type-IIa low threshold, fast twitch, or type-IIb fast twitch). You train these fibers through a variety of measures. Optimal explosive training stimulus for the muscles and nervous system will come from a combination of training environments that emphasize high force/low velocity, low force/high velocity, and high force/high velocity exercises.

This past weekend I had the opportunity to speak at the NSCA VA/WV state clinic. Every time I attend one of these events I leave with an entirely new appreciation for the work that strength and conditioning professionals are doing across the spectrum. Plus it’s always great running into and making new friends who are also great practitioners.

Huge thanks to my man for the invite out to Indiana University. You turned me into a Hoosier fan real quick. The things you are all doing with your athletes are impressive. I appreciate the opportunity to come and speak and see firsthand how an entire staff continues to make a positive impact every day.

All in a day’s work… It is important to have an understanding of the principles of strength and conditioning and how they directly affect human performance.

These principles help coaches to select appropriate exercises at the right time of year at intensities that put athletes in the best possible position to perform at their highest level.

Individuality:
People will have unique responses to the same training stimulus due to individual characteristics such as biological age, training age, gender, injury history, anthropometrics, mobility, etc. So training should be adjusted to an individual’s needs.

Specificity:
Physiological adaptations to training are specific to muscle groups trained, the speed and intensity of the exercise, metabolic demands placed on the body, and the specific movement taking place.

Overload:
For adaptations to occur an individual should continually increase the demands placed on the appropriate body system. This requires progressively increasing the training stimulus by manipulating key training variables (intensity, volume, duration, frequency).

Progression:
Overloading should occur at optimal time frames, in phases throughout a given year, to help maximize physical performance. Gradual increases of demands placed on the body will result in improvements over time.

Diminishing Returns:
An individual’s current level of training dictates their ability to see further improvement in performance. Novice athletes will see relatively quick gains in performance when they first start training and as their body becomes more adept it becomes more difficult to illicit those gains in performance.

Reversibility:
The effects of training will be lost if the training stimulus is removed for a prolonged period of time.

While not an all inclusive list these are the generally accepted key principles that help coaches compile yearly training programs for their athletes. The better our understanding of how to marry these concepts throughout the year the better we can prepare our athletes to compete at their highest level.

The 2022 Marine Corps Trials are over and what a hell of a ride it was. In a few months the All-Marine Team will be competing against the other branches of service for bragging rights. I could not be happier for every single athlete that came out and competed this year. This is a strong squad with a ton of heart. All the other coaches and I cannot wait to see how things go down for them later this year. Ride this wave!

🔰The Length-Tension Relationship is important to remember when thinking about joint alignment during lifts. The position of a joint affects how joints around it react while moving/lifting. A change in a joint’s angle can affect the amount of tension developed and muscle length is altered.

When these misalignments occur, the overall tension developed is reduced and the muscles do not produce the proper amounts of force to carry out efficient movement.

Dysfunction at one joint affects the joints around it and the ability of surrounding muscles to produce optimal force is altered. Pay attention to misalignments that may occur during exercise.
