For all of my friends in the UK- I’ll be there June 6th. I hope to see some of you all there.

Was talking music with someone the other day and they were saying Tennessee whiskey (George jones OG) was @ChrisStapleton signature song. Made me wonder- how many other singers “signature” songs are covers. @EliYoungBand and even if it breaks your heart? Stapleton did murder it

Excited for this one to come out!! It’s something I’ve been looking to do for years, spearheaded by Tim. Can’t wait for it to be available for everyone to read.

New publication alert! 🏋️‍♂️ This study aims to inform practitioners about the accuracy of five devices used for measuring barbell velocity during two weightlifting movements, the snatch and clean. Congrats Sergio, Mallory, and team! Link: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

Any time you push the limits, something is going to break. You’ve just got to make sure you do something epic before you do. - Ed Coan at SummerStrong.

Thanks for having us @TexasACSM! Great to have so many of our staff, @knsmtamu students, and faculty presenting at this event last week. STRONG Texas A&M presence! 💪📈👍

I’m not sure why, & it may just b my feed, but I’ve seen like 3 people that I’ve never heard of talking smack about Louie Simmons now that he’s dead. Funny these individuals ever said it while he was alive. Prob bc he’d 🥊 first & ask q’s later. Wasn’t perfect but he was my guy.

If you are in Orlando, see Dir. of SS Service @sbattley21 join @olystrength & @jbryanmann on how we “Bridge the Gap” here at @12thMan @knsmtamu - Friday @ 3pm (ET). Dr Mann & Bo also present on other topics - Friday @ 8:30 & 9:30 also. There is a streaming option also!

There are some great things happening in Aggieland.

I'm going through one of two presentations that I'm giving at the @NSCA coaches conference. I have a feeling I'm going to have some people pretty PO'd at me. Is it weird that I'm kind of happy about it? I'm going against the grain with some 21st century S&C fallacies.

If anything I do or know can get us any advantage, aid player health and safety, or an extra W, I’m all in every time. Gig ‘em.

Dr Yentes is amazing at what she does and is an amazing person as well. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone to get their PhD. Her office is about 5 doors down from mine so you’d have to be able to put up with me too.

"The Primer" Gameday lifting for enhanced performance Getting an edge on gameday is what every team and athlete aims to achieve and the gameday primer can be a powerful addition to a sports performance program to help achieve this. Programming principles: Participating athletes should have high-level training age and be highly technically proficient in the chosen exercise modalities. Stronger athletes may respond more potently to priming activities. Consider a strong psychological component. Allow self-determination. The athlete should be involved in the selection of the priming activities. Choose the training types or the training focus, not the specific exercises. Priming activities should be high intensity. Intensity can be driven with exercises with high force requirements (strength exercises) or high rate of force development requirements (ballistic power/speed exercises). Priming work should be conducted with a high intensity of effort. Measurement and feedback methods such as velocity-monitoring in strength training or jump height & contact time monitoring in plyometric work can help increase intent of effort. Priming work should take place at approx. 5-6 hours before the game. This is likely the most potent stimulus. However, priming sessions conducted 24-32 hours before the game can also have beneficial effects. Priming sessions should be low volume and low metabolic fatigue kept to a minimum. Use long rest periods. If in doubt, use lower volume than planned. Example sessions based on approach (aggressive vs conservative) and available equipment/facility 👇👇 Solid review review from @brjmason here: Excellent, really readable review from @PeterHarrisonAU and @DocHolmberg12 here: Great work from @DrMarkRu55ell and an all star cast showing beneficial non-specific effects of varied morning priming exercise types on afternoon performance.
