The force/velocity curve

Send us a text


Understanding the force/velocity curve is essential for smart and
efficient programming for pro athletes, as well as a great tool
to be applied at the appropriate times with general population
clients.

@merciles_66_ competes with @onechampionship and is a National
level wrestler from Dagestan.

He is already strong AF, so I don't need to spend much time
working on his strength, however, if I want to build a more
explosive athlete, I need to focus on his ability to apply his
strength rapidly, through the other strength profiles on the
force/velocity curve.

Strength
Strength - speed
Power
Speed - strength
Speed

I unfortunately didn't catch any of his speed work on camera
today, but we started our session with speed work on the stairs,
before transitioning into a giant set focused on the other
strength profiles. I wanted to keep his speed work separate, as
this work is the primary focus for this training block. Due to
his already crazy amounts of strength, simply improving his speed
(his ability to apply that strength rapidly) will make him a more
explosive athlete, which will carry over into his combat focused
skills and drills.

Exercise 1: Heavy farmers carry (strength)
Exercise 2: Counter movement box jumps (speed - strength)
Exercise 3: Heavy sled pulls (strength - speed)
Exercise 4: Stepping overhead ball slams (power)

"I shouldn’t be in the position I am right now."


The odds were stacked against me:


Poor family on welfare, eldest of 6 kids, parents didn’t work,
abusive step-dad, no electricity or running water for a 6 years
period of my life


Caught up with the wrong crowd, stealing, drugs, skipping
school


At 14 years old, I sat on a bus for 3 days with $50 in my
pocket, to travel to the next State over West, to begin a new
life in the workforce - 2000

14 - 20: I grew up and learned how to become a man through work
and rugby
20 - 26: I lived, trained and fought as a professional soldier,
at a high level
26 - 32: I became a personal trainer, after failing in my pursuit
to become a firefighter
32 - 38: I worked with, and won world titles with some of the
best athletes on the planet, as their strength and conditioning
coach
38+: The next evolution begins
