I'm so happy that I found your channel. You have some great advise, man. I especially love your videos about tendon health and tendon strength. This was a great video too though. Keep up the good work!
I've been watching your videos for about a year. The way you deliver information is fantastic. This format, has elicited my first comment because it is even better... not every video though. Stay healthy.
What's the science on doing explosive and strength training in the same session? I just recently started incorporating one explosive/power exercise at the beginning of my leg days. On A day, I open with 4x5 power cleans, with the first two sets working upward, and the last two sets at the same heaviest weight. I don't know my power clean max, but I do a weight that I don't feel too much struggle with. Then I go into 3x8-10 squats and 3x8-10 RDL's, and call that wraps on leg day because I do a lot of longer distance running and don't want to completely take my legs out of the equation for more than 1 day. Then on day B, I open with 3x20second sprints, and go into the same set and rep ranges but with front squats and 1 leg RDL's.
Question: I‘m reasonably quick (not super quick though) but struggle with minor injuries. Is there anything specific in trainings that would act preventative to injuries like tears or tendonitis?
Was there also any rest between the two exercises of each series (superset), as I'm finding conflicting information online regarding contrast training (PAP), where you're either supposed to jump straight to the plyo movement or have a full rest before doing so. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Lets say we do a drop jump test on an athlete and he doesnt have good ground contact time. Would the split squat from pins (The concept of focusing on concentric specifically) be beneficial on improving gct? Awesome video btw, thank you very much!
yo sir, is it better to do low to high intensity jumps, instead of full high intensity jumps every rep. like combining extensive and intensive in one jump. like pogo to vertical like you did in the video
How would you program max approach jumps / dunk attempts into this explosive training? should I for example do 10-20 approach jumps before this workout or on another day entirely? If on another day: whats a good number of jumps and whats the weekly jump day to explosive day ratio? Thank you so much btw, your videos helped me a ton!
Approach jumps are very specific to dunking and improve your timing. Obviously best to do them on court but to a vertec in a gym could work too. But remember they're a lot of impact and maximal so it's not where you want to rely on most of your gains in vertical jump to come from. The extensive (low to moderate intensity) jumps that can be more reactive and elastic at 50+ reps per session will do that. I often do approach jumps 1x per week as a test to see if the other stuff in the program is working.
You know alot about heart and stuff so.. Im a 26 year old male. Not sure what my max hr is, but last week i was at 216 doing a cooper test and im sure i could get it to 225. Resting heart rate is about 45, (if im not using nicotine) if i do its about 58. Im no way near an athlete, i do running like 4 times a week, the numbers just seem strange
running 4 times a week is honestly plenty to keep a really low heart rate especially if you've been doing that for a while i play soccer just 4 times a week and my heart rate is also around 50 resting

Love this video style! Please do more like this. Also Would love to see a full athlete training session as well
That's a good idea. It's hard with the loud music that's typically playing in the gym but I'll try to think of a way to do that.
100% agree! The best videos are the ones which we can apply!!!

Hey, Matt! How long does it take roughly, including warm-up and cool-down?
This full session was about 50 minutes
Was there also any rest between the two exercises of each series (superset), as I'm finding conflicting information online regarding contrast training (PAP), where you're either supposed to jump straight to the plyo movement or have a full rest before doing so. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Want the vitruve but price is 💰
It was very helps thanks a lot

I'm interested how you would do an explosive, power, and agility program for MMA or Combat Sports like Kickboxing or Muay Thai.
Amazing format, very informative! And it ramps up learning by getting us somewhat inside your head for the workout

Fire workout, great full body. Let’s go and you’re a hooper. What’s your vertical at now?
Great video Matt! I’ll be showing this to my high school sports performance kids! This is an awesome format.

Love this video. Thanks for sharing.
Thoughts on maybe switching trap bar deadlift for Olympic lifts ?
You can if technique is good

Love the format🎉
Awesome 👍
Algorithm 💪
👍
Can I incorporate both zone 2 like long distance jogging and Zone 5 training like sprinting in a week?
You gotta run slow also to sprint better.
...but don't half marathon, let alone full. :)
What app?
