There becomes a point when normal accelerations are no longer making you faster. Athletes need resisted accelerations, where they are pulling a sled with a relatively heavy load behind them. It gives them a greater ability to apply force horizontally.

If you don’t have a handshake with your training partner, what are you even doing? @MasonPosa @BraydenMummert 🔥

Don’t live by your feelings. Live by principles. Feelings change. Principles don’t.

How can you train to become a better overall and more explosive athlete? I enjoy doing these 5 things: 1. Diversifying prep work 2. Using repeat contacts + in multiple planes 3. Adding movement into sprint starts 4. Using dynamic effort lifts 5. Working in “reverse.”
