This podcast is fantastic! Been following you for a while and your knowledge is unmatched

[@WizzyEli]

Top 3 Plyo Exercises! I rated this 10/10!!! Very Informative!!!

[@user-pk9vp2ng3z]

u can write for me them? 1. Split squat ( foot elevated ) 2. ..? 3. ..? thx

[@TOOMUCHSNIPPETS]

@@user-pk9vp2ng3z trap bar deadlift and high pull

[@disparato]

I'm a a 41 year old, who last dunked 20 years ago, and looking to fly again! I've dipped in and out of strength training (respectable 500lb squat) and what you said at 31mins onwards is spot on. This is what I have concluded. I used to read Carmelo Bosco's work (Italian sports scientist who was doing bar speed measuring before most) and his conclusion having experimented with elite athletes was along what you recommend, which is strength contribution has a ceiling to power, beyond a certain baseline, speed of contraction has to be the priority

[@Darkwinkie]

Love the format. Time stamps are hella helpful. Great episode !!!

[@ahmedshehata5087]

Definitely worth listening to. You deserve at least 3 million subs. Great information for free.

[@MeshTheSnake]

Best sports podcast period 😤

[@Michalkoks99]

Wow maaaan. Do much knowledge. Cant wait for the 3rd episode. You are the goat. Imagine how many athletes will end up in the NBA because of you maybe in the next 10 years. Maybe the whole league. Maaaan. I'm so excited to hear you once again. Keep doing your thing. Poland loves you

[@---zg7ex]

holy cow, this is the goat intelligence! pure pure gold & platinum information! thanks both!

[@mattturner1037]

These are sick Paul, who else would you recommend watching? Love your content but always want more!

[@codys8082]

Love listening and re-listening!!

[@tgi_david1706]

Hey Paul I’ve been watching you since you were uploading ball handling videos and you are actually the reason I went into exercise science for my major you’re a huge inspiration. I left a suggestion on the last podcast but you guys should try to get Cornell Jenkins on the show I know you know devin Williams and Cornell is the superathlete guy with all the jump rope videos I think you guys would have a really great conversation.

[@21Lauiiiiiiiiii]

Love These Podcasts!!!

[@kujtimujkani7817]

Love it!! Keep doing more!

[@Joel-5747]

Love the intro with topic times listed ♥️

[@varshsri8379]

Best performance podcast out !

[@chrisvasquez3886]

Great video. I learn so much from you bro. Appreciate the information. Also going incorporate those exercises you mentioned

[@samuelsteele5430]

Currently deployed overseas and trying to fix a hip and shoulder injury so I can start the program. Really excited.

[@dylansoedjasa3433]

Love this podcast. Could you please talk more about injury prevention and strength?

[@tcareyyy2443]

Love this podcast

[@clipss.trending]

what a good podcast man

[@gerikoliveros6959]

This is a really good discussion

[@aussiespursfan8609]

Amazing podcasts you are doing , keep up the informative content. Is there a specific video regarding the “stick test” mentioned around 13:49

[@jaimemorales3566]

This man is working

[@ibrahimdiawara9878]

Thanks!!! for the vitamin d tips I have shin splints as well, I didn’t know we need that

[@Allbetsaside]

WE MUST PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COST. Never knew how much we needed him. Very special trainer who cares mostly about result. Much respect to you. Your name will be heard all over the world one day. Very soon actually

[@flakse11]

You seem to be implying the importance of specificity of training a lot of the time. I would love to hear about how you balance specificity vs variety in training and how important variety is. And it is awesome with the deep science stuff. Keep up the great work!

[@pcoder9474]

37:40 - that's a really interesting topic on athletic kids preforming worse after college . I read some articles saying how some kids that go to D1 schools and strength programs for 3-4 years often times barely increase their vertical / 40 time despite the obvious better nutrition and coaching

[@ivansaravanja6272]

Nice man i support

[@cristian.andreica]

Hey, love the insights you shared in the video. I’m a bit puzzled by one of the remarks, that increasing co-contraction is not beneficial for increasing vertical jump. Why is that? Is it because you cannot relax the antagonist muscle? With regards to health, wouldn’t that long term increase injury due to one muscle becoming very strong and the antagonist not? Thanks in advance!

You should have at least 1mil subscribers

[@mastermindpatrick5232]

Dope.... Podcast..

[@MrDiMES123]

damn no script he knows his stuff

[@Humzajalani]

Awesome

[@Crnicelad]

Paul is a complete badass xD

[@419er]

Studies of elite sprinters that I have looked at have shown that they have roughly 2.25x body weight squat on average. And sprinters and long/high jumpers tend to have quite a bit of cross over.

[@youngstunna642]

DOPE!

[@vasilibrinkmann2056]

Hahahaha ah man, I forgot about "I'MA PAY FOR THAT!!" Such a classic story.

[@jacobmand5388]

Can you do a segment on good upper body lifts for hoopers?

[@Idanharat]

There is research from Football regarding relative squat strength and injury prevalence.

[@AceR4808]

What about trap bar jump squats ? Would that be a good exercise too for increasing vertical jump?

[@nextgenwellness]

I gotta broken wrist right now from falling bad on it a couple weeks ago🤧 same way you hurt yours except my vert is upper 30’s.

[@pcgamerz9271]

I am a badminton player same case as ur friend here, I consider myself an athlete but have patella tendonitis but I strengthened my glutes and glute medius but don't know about proprioception. Pls make a video about proprioception

[@michaelmatthie1632]

How long should you rest your knee after injury and how long should take to go back strength exercise?

[@Afeii]

can you do a giveaway on the vert code bodyweight?

[@nasiralexander3975]

Can you please talk about how to identify your (or someone else's) limiting factors in training? A lot of training is personal like you have said and I want to know about notice what an athlete needs!

[@isaactaylor1241]

If you are fast but not strong get stronger vice versa

[@lameasstv1140]

lol i love 'yeeeeuuh' every 8 seconds, great vid tho

[@threezysworld8089]

I believe there no such thing as "too strong" as long as you keep balance and stretch and strengthen joints along the way.

[@mastermindpatrick5232]

@pjfperformance... When you have the power cleans.. Are you going to squat under the bar.. 70%-80 percent...

[@Kirbyle7]

1:28 I'm surprised you didn't break their ankles.

[@mickmerzon_music]

Bruh 😂 the criminal tries to jump, Paul’s like, “HEY HEY STOP NO,” your penultimate jab is all wrong...your ground contact time isn’t ideal for how you jump, you need more plyos tho, and you have potential, so if you train with me on the VCE we can help get that vert goin! Squid gang baby!! ...wait what did you come here for anyway?”

[@zachariahwentworth3396]

So if someone wears thick shoes like most older people, could they be more prone to injuries or taking a wrong step?

[@mastermindpatrick5232]

Bro excellent stuff . I have heavy bands, And to 20 kg kettlebells.. Are the high pulls.. And the trap bar deadlift, something I can do with.. Those.. Kettlebells.. Maybe with bands.. Please help, great podcast 🤔🤔🤔Facts..

[@wizardwanny]

You can do deadlifts with the kettle bells albeit the load won't be as heavy. unless of course, you bought heavier kettle bells.

[@86will1]

You talk about reaching a point where you cut back on the strength training because you start to plateau but are you increasing the amount of plyometric exercises youre doing? Is it just a transition from strength exercises to more human strength training?

[@86will1]

If there is something I would like to see on the next podcast I think it'd be how to approach lifting for the upper body to best help translation to the court

[@bilalyilsidim1160]

Can you put pictures on the exercise

[@supremo6530]

Sorry what is high pool? is that how u spell it?

[@isaactaylor1241]

Dang before I got banged up I was at 50 for rear foot elevated and it kept going up

[@21Lauiiiiiiiiii]

i have a question to your programm the vert code. When I buy the option of 30$ per month. Can I just stop paying if I don't like the programm after one month. Or do I have to pay for a whole year or something

[@allthinngscool5455]

Laurenz you pay month by month, cancel anytime

[@21Lauiiiiiiiiii]

@@allthinngscool5455 thank you man that is dope

[@shifty7277]

The other guy: Yeah

[@beingathlete1]

can anybody tell me how's the last exercise done?

[@fulltilt1136]

yeah. ok. yeah. yeah.

[@tarunsamuel3166]

rating ∞ out of 10 hands down

[@shambles3500]

What’s the high pole exercise Paul is referring to? I tried googling it and can’t seem to find the one he’s talking about

[@Harrison42]

Hoang Vu he breaks it down on his Instagram if you want to see what it looks like

[@TheSllik]

High pull

[@mickmerzon_music]

I can imagine the break in going like the criminal tries to jump, Paul’s like, “HEY HEY STOP NO,” your penultimate jab is all wrong...your ground contact time isn’t ideal for how you jump, you need more plyos tho, and you have potential, so if you train with me on the VCE we can help get that vert goin! Squid gang baby!! ...wait what did you come here for anyway?”

[@kingdrew5083]

what is a high pole?

[@Zeeeener]

How similar is the rear foot elevated split squat to a Bulgarian split squat?

[@chrisresnick9269]

They’re the same exercise just with a different name

[@conwaybeachy7784]

Yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea

[@insiyam465]

How do we know at what level to stop trying to improve flexibility?

[@lombardia1509]

I think if we talk about basketball it's more about mobility and control, not flexibility. I think you have enough of it if you just warm up properly and play basketball regularly and you can do a couple of exercises for your tight areas, but you might not to do it if you are naturally pretty flexible.

[@user-pk9vp2ng3z]

What is a "High pool"

[@yudimorris93]

He meant "High Pull" its an olympic lifting variation where you're training triple extension with only using half the movement of either the clean or snatch

[@mastermindpatrick5232]

As you are squatting.. After the clean though.. And.. What if you dont know your 1rm.. Is it possible to get a a percentage if my body wieght... 70 to 80 percent of the body wieght.. And power clean with that..
