Pretty proud of this kid and what she has just achieved. Always nice to grab a National record!

Yeah what i'm seeing more and more is athlete's rhythms being dramatically influenced at various parts of the race when they're not focused on their own rhythms or cues. Thus I'm supportive of each athlete having their own cue(s) in a race to help them execute their plan.
…
Post-run, athletes might say they ‘thought of nothing’, but I feel that is a poor strategy going into a race. An empty mind will be vulnerable to the 1st distraction that comes along
Rather — lock in on a mood word (or 2-3 separate words in different parts of the race)

Should have consulted the great man too! @PfaffSC thoughts on this?
Thoughts on whether an athlete should focus on a cue during a sprint race or just let it happen? I guess in a way the benefits of it being "constructed" somewhat versus flow. @StuartMcMillan1 @sprintcoachSWE @pjvazel @jb_morin

@stuff why are you continuing to report on speculation - "could", "might"...also, whoever is doing the modelling needs to be sacked as they've been wrong every single time...
Congratulations Tiaaan Whelpton on equalling Joseph Millar's NZ Resident Record of 10.18s (1.9) in the 100m at the Potts Classic on Saturday night, Jan 22nd. Awesome stuff!

So still at top speed. Smooth as. Perhaps not much Spinal Engine contribution here @AngusRossNZ . What does the research say about vertical oscillation at/and max vel @pjvazel ?
When you think you've seen most things in the gym...and your athlete picks up the bar the wrong way and you're like, no you idiot, that's not how you do a front squat...and then you realise you've stumbled upon something that is actually great! 💪🙂
Thanks for pointing this out. It's ridiculous!
As expected (NZL was never going to follow science on the issue), Laurel Hubbard named in the Olympic team, so will become the first transgender Olympic athlete. Here is our podcast exploring the meaning of sport & key biological issues for fairness: podcasts.apple.com/za/podcas…
Awesome presentation from @mcwexford on Phil Healy and his coaching over the years. Well done coach!
