The "dynamic correspondence" conversation, with references to swimming and water polo was interesting. . . and, if one goes back a bit (to the early 90s), I can speak to personal experience with some weird attempts to put that "correspondence" to work with "dryland" training. I briefly swam in a major D1 collegiate program in the early 90s. While the weight room stuff we did in the off-season was what you'd expect for the early 90s (a lot of Nautilus machine -- or weird machines similar to Nautilus machines but with resistance both ways), there was this "frog-kick jumping" dryland exercise we did on stadium stairs that was just madness. This was the era of the "Hungarian breaststroke". . . so like imagine jumping up a few stadium stairs (or even bench-to-bench) via a full motion frog kick . . . yes, you would be pushing off the ground on the inside edge of your foot, with the feet splayed way out. Don't know if the polo guys did this stupidity (doubt they did), but for either a swimmer or a water polo player, this sort of "dryland dynamic correspondence" approach was just stupid. Doing something that "looked like the thing and felt like the thing, but in the 'off-field' training environment" probably just fff'd up ones knees and led to no significant improvements in ability to produce power in the kick. A front squat would have been MUCH better. But that's the way things were. Great to see that modern day swimmers aren't doing this sort of crap.

Great conversation, Trevor is very intelligent and well spoken

Training is simple 1. Plyos/sprint 2. Olympic lift 3. Strength lift 4. Supplements 5. Accessories

When you’re doing lifts from pins do you focus on getting weight up as fast as you can? Differ for lifts?

[@benilaria4166]

The water polo dynamic correspondence bit is such a good part of this video - that whole debate debunked by just applying dynamic correspondence to water based sports

[@SirRHFrost]

Ello Mr Will who is that college named after? With that said, I have no interest in helping and coaching anyone that is involved with american football.
