significance of
believing in the training system AND
ensuring that the programming is optimized

importance of
having a focused training environment
- The
commonalities
between the most successful training camps
- Investigating
the
physiological basis of training effects
- His
rationalization of
the significance of Block Training
- Imparting the
totality
of his knowledge when programming the
training for his athletes
- Accounting
for the
stress incurred by the athletes, via the
sport training that is out of control of the physical preparation
coach, when
regulating the daily loading
- The
heightening of
squat strength via the improved motor unit
synchronization, rate coding, and recruitment via sprinting
- Managing and
accounting for high intensity training
components
- Sprint speed
improvement and heightened neuromuscular
efficiency
- The paradox
of
‘strength and conditioning’
- Incongruent
sport
training
systems as a result of the
incomplete knowledge base of sport coaches
- The club
setting
presenting the most feasible realization of
an efficient sport training model in the US
- Concentrated
loading
within the Block Training model
- Distinguishing
between
Block Training, Complex-Parallel, and
what is recognized as the Western model of periodization
- The criteria
for
selecting the Block or Complex-Parallel
Model
- Programming
retaining
loads
- Providing his
athletes
with the option to auto-regulate the
GPP load during periods of intensive SPP
- Accounting
for the
stress of SPP when programming the GPP
- The need for
providing
specific context when defining
‘strength’
- The
distinction
between developing high levels of strength and
power and the mastery of skill in specific disciplines
- The different
training
effects of SPP relative to the varied
positional demands of American Football
- An exchange
with Jim
Wendler regarding spending the least
amount of time and energy necessary to maintain GPP during periods of
intensive
SPP
- One of his
barometers
for measuring the success of the
training program for his American Football players
- A look at the
squat,
press, and auxiliary exercises from the
standpoint of motor unit recruitment
- Potential vs.
Readiness during the competitive season
- Sufficient
levels of
strength vs. a non-usable abundance and
the Explosive Strength Deficit
- The reason
why GPP
training furthers the sports results of
many already high level team sport athletes in North
America
- Managing
workload vs.
recovery within the Block system

non-correlation
between vertical jump, standing long
jump, and the 40yd dash

prerequisites for
jumping ability vs. sprinting ability
- The speed
requirement
for American Football players
- The
significance of
time: motion analysis and research and
the lack of it in the American Football sport training institution
- The reason
why so many
‘trainers of athletes’ are able to
make a living
- The
importance of
youth training in a non-competitive
environment
