    I was wondering for older players what would you recommend in terms of modifications? Which ones to avoid or do less of?

    • @ryanlowe6243
      @ryanlowe6243  Рік тому +3

      It depends on your abilities. "Older" athletes begin to encounter mental barriers as well as physical ones, and some of those mental hurdles are illusory, while others really need to be heeded. Discretion will be up to you on organizing those for yourself. My advice is to train in a "test, rest, adjust" pattern (which I learned in rehab after messing up my back olympic lifting). How it works is: you test out a given training activity within (what you think) is a reasonable threshold for your fitness level. Then, because pain can take a while to show up, you take the next day off to see how you feel. It's strictly for discovering whether the prior day's load level was appropriate. Then on day 3, you either ramp up or down on the workout load to fine-tune based on how your body felt during that rest day. Also, rest day doesn't mean being sedentary - it means mobility, light movement, promotion of blood flow through muscle and tendon tissues.
      But my most important suggestion is that we should actually focus MORE on developing fast-twitch (power-oriented) muscle as we age. That's because we will lose about half of our fast-twitch fibre between the ages of 40 and 80. And it's ultimately the loss of these fibres that will result in our eventual inability to play sports, and later to get up and down stairs, carry groceries, and live in our own homes without assistance.
      If you want to know how you're doing, try getting up from a cross-legged sitting position on the floor without using your hands. Try broad-jumping your height, laterally (warm up first). Try hanging from a bar for 2 minutes. If you can do all of this, and are maintaining the strength and mobility required to continue to do these things, you are on track to age well, physically. If these tests are beyond your current abilities, my suggestion is to train specifically toward improving these areas until you can do them.

      As an aside, I did well on the lower body stuff, but I failed the 2 minute hang by about 30 seconds - so I know what I'll be doing every day until I can! Felt amazing for my back to hang that much too.

      @ryanlowe6243  5 років тому +2

      Thanks man! I really appreciate the support. Nope, never played pro. By the time there was a pro team in my area (Rush in Toronto) I was living a bit too far from the city for it to make sense to try out. Would have been cool to see the game from a higher level though! Or at least give a shot and see if I made it!

    How do I train my muscles for throwing? Which muscles do I even use?

    • @ryanlowe6243
      @ryanlowe6243  4 роки тому +1

      Honestly until you're an elite thrower (high level touring player), you're going to get far more value out of simply pouring all of your time into simply practicing throwing. That itself will develop the muscles used when throwing - and make you a better player faster than working out in order to throw better. The reason I believe it doesn't take a whole lot of strength to throw really well (and really far) is because I've just seen so many super "whippy" players (thin, fast, but not super strong) excel at throwing, and pretty much every aspect of the game. I personally know a guy who just made Ottawa's pro team and probably can't lift half of what I do, yet his throws are as far or farther. He just plays a LOT of frisbee and is capable of generating crazy whip with his throws.

      ​@@ryanlowe6243 Working on my technique is just so hard and a bit frustrating. I got a decent distance, I just wish I could increase it by simply doing some push ups. But there is no easy way, is there? Patience and practice.
      But right now I have barely any muscles at all, so any form on training will do me well.

    Hi Ryan, excellent content. One thing that I'm missing is there is no suggestion for a warm up before these explosive exercises. What would you suggest?

    @emconway9064 4 роки тому +3

    I'm new to doing workouts that aren't just cardio so I don't know much. Specifically for someone playing a sport like ultimate, do you know if is it better to do this workout in straight sets of each move or as circuits of doing one round of reps of each move one after the other?

    • @ryanlowe6243
      @ryanlowe6243  4 роки тому +1

      My instinct is to go with 3-5 sets of each movement. You'll get better quality reps that way because your body won't be constantly adjusting for novelty. I find the first set almost feels harder than the second a lot of the time, as the muscles involved seem to need to remember how to do it again. So those second through fifth sets are usually higher quality, for me anyway, and I can apply much more "intent" which leads to power increases.

    How many times a week should you be doing this workout. My first game is in may and will football workouts work as well for ultimate bc I play wide receiver and does the strength workouts (with weights) are the same as ultimate assuming the difference is just its not a ball I'm catching thanks

    • @rykelo8
      @rykelo8 5 років тому +3

      Yes football training will compliment your Ultimate Frisbee training really nicely, so give both your all! As you are a wide receiver, you will benefit greatly from training to jump higher, sprint faster, and be able to move laterally more suddenly. This workout delivers on all 3 points. It is fully compatible with weight training and can be done every day you're not doing some other form of training. Most people get enough rest to recover adequately in the 20 or so hours between workouts, even if done every day. Be sure to read about recovery in the blog post linked to in the video description, especially the part about rolling out sore muscles, and getting quality sleep. You get your gains when you rest, so work yourself hard and then rest yourself hard, and you'll see big improvement!
