Myths of S&C Part 1: The Force-Velocity Curve of Exercises Curves like this are taken as gospel, but are complete BS.

Sounds like the making of a Fad.. Be interesting to see if dyno testing for motivation & buy-in alone is enough to justify time & costs over long term.

Myths of S&C: Part 2 Misunderstanding the force-velocity relationship. Although almost all S&C coaches know Newton's second law (F=ma), our intention tends to be more Aristotelian.

Nice. Considering the force-length operating range of an exercise might be useful for hypertrophy. The second part to consider is when long lengths correspond with high external joint torques - otherwise you’re just stretching. Combined active + passive = optimal stimulus?

Makes sense. Both exercises are within the active-length curve. Torque profile may differ, but total/peak muscle force could be similar. Somehow need to get the mid delt into longer lengths to generate passive force & increase hypertrophy? Nice job Dr. Stian Larsen

Peter Weyand ALTIS Dan Cleather Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance Sportsmith PJ Vazel Lance Brooks, Ph.D. Neil Bezodis Vern Gambetta Science of Multi-Directional Speed Journal of Applied Physiology Personally I feel this is misleading. The nuance of varying contractions velocities and individual muscle functions, it is not an isotonic contraction after all. I think power, the F-V curve and FVP profile are misused in this sense. Perhaps just me.

🦵 Can targeting specific muscles really help prevent ACL tears? 🤔 While promising, it's no perfect solution—ACL injury prevention is complex! 🍿 Learn ACL injury risk and prevention in our new Masterclass with Dr. Matt Bourne and Tyler Collings 🔗 physio.network/ACLRisk

Some excellent work on the way from Jinyun Cai. Does targeted muscle strengthening reduce ACL loading during dynamic tasks? ✔8 week training intervention ✔Reactive sidestepping & single-leg landings ✔EMG-informed neuromusculoskeletal modelling ✔Muscles personalized with MRI

Exercises targeting the gluteus medius should likely involve direct hip abduction or include a component of having to control and stabilize the pelvis in weight bearing. Shown are a handful of options that can be used for training or rehab purposes. 🧵

Why 'functional training' is still ill-defined. Look up the history of the word 'upmost'. In 1979 this wasn't a word. It has become one (it gets a gig in most dictionaries) because muppets, who never read, mis-heard utmost and started their own word. 1/n

Johan Lahti, PhD I think the key is starting with what we care about measuring and how we intend to use that info to inform decisions. If hip mobility (or any construct) is something we deem important—based on performance relevance, injury risk, etc.—then we should aim to measure it directly...

Clinical gold! Thanks Dr Alison Grimaldi

Poor agreement between EMG based ranking of exercises and gluteal forces ranked exercises. This is *exactly* why we shouldn't use EMG amplitude as our sole/main measure of guaging how effective an exercise is. Great work Tyler Collings Matt Bourne pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40263750/

📈 Think high EMG = better glute gains? Think again 🧠 This study shows EMG activity doesn’t always match force output —more activation doesn’t necessarily mean more strength ⏰ No time to read the full paper? ✅ We broke it down into a 5-minute read physio.network/EMG-study
