S&C Coaches react: All Blacks Speed and Power Training

[@Senneeeuh]

I converted from american football to weightlifting and I can tell the mental switch going from power cleans to full cleans is immensely challenging. Unlearning an old pattern is way harder than learning a new one from scratch.

[@TyRaff]

Same, took nearly a year for the snatch to click mentally for me, and stop power snatching when pulling hard.

There are a few videos on youtube of the Scottish rugby team training in the gym just before the 2011 world cup. Might be interesting material for a future rugby video.

Link! What’s the search you ran?

Turn that jacket inside out and you'll look like you're looking for a dealer 😄

Great video! Please remember to do a video on fencing.

We must remember that the ABs have no “ home “ gym . There’s a lot of improvisation going on there ;)

[@decongestanttablet6946]

I am pretty sure the kiwis dont resist blows, if anything they welcome blows as much as possible. Some would argue that its their job to take blows.

Ahh my right shoulder has had it's fair share of stingers from hockey. It's always been a limiting factor in overhead movements

Isn’t the more benifit to perform single leg work on a flat surface? Training for on the field rather than a wobble board

[@Dorsiazwart]

Yes, that is what they're saying

If one has poor mobility, full depth squat is bad for their knees. I recommend not going below parallel. Mobility is genetic, exercises can only improve it a little bit temporarily.

[@Tracuer221]

Quite literally every physical capability one has comes from genetics. It's false to say mobility can "only improve a little bit" and it's illogical to imply that training mobility is pointless when strength or sport specific skills also only improve "temporarily".

[@YTho-ev1ej]

Unless someone has any current or previous injuries they should be able to learn to squat to a decent depth below parallel. I’m the case of contact sports, athletes are subjected to loads at wide ranges of motion. Being flexible and strong in those positions is (from what I’ve seen online) a very effective way of reducing injuries which is backed by published sports science papers. Before I started squatting I had poor mobility and now I’m ass to grass, which is the case for almost everyone I know

[@rsuryase]

@@YTho-ev1ej it's not possible for someone with poor mobility to advance to ATG.

[@YTho-ev1ej]

@@rsuryase you’re essentially saying it’s not possible for people to become more mobile and flexible. People, like myself, can and do gain mobility through training. Genetics play some roll in your mobility but stretching and mobility exercises are guaranteed to increase mobility. Atg squat is possible for anyone who isn’t injured i.e rugby player with a knee joint that looks like a grenade went off inside it

[@rsuryase]

@@YTho-ev1ej ATG is not possible for anyone. You have to be already genetically gifted in flexibility/mobility.
