I've read over a thousand books in my lifetime but only a few have changed me. Brad Stulberg's "The Practice of Groundedness" provides actionable wisdom. (Thread)

(@BStulberg)

In my 38 years as a teacher and 42 years as a coach, I've seldom felt the need to be "taught" and "coached".

I've been so busy DOING the teaching and coaching, that I have never sought someone to teach and coach ME.

Brad Stulberg merges multiple fields of scientific inquiry, the world's major wisdom traditions, and the practices of highly fulfilled peak formers to come up with common threads of truth.

"Accept where you are to get you where you want to go."

Since commenting on 50x40 😵‍💫 last week, several coaches have reached out.

"If you don't agree with running 50 40s, how should we get ready for 🏈?

If you are emotionally attached to tempo runs, conditioning tests, and creating toughness with 50x40, STOP READING NOW. ⬇️

"If you demand explosive movements when running, blocking, tackling, and in the weight room... why would you turn your back and then run slow conditioning with poor posture? It sends a mixed message and de-trains you." ~Vince Anderson

@XLATHLETE

"Conditioning needs to mimic 🏈... violent, fast, and explosive." ~Cal Dietz @XLATHLETE

You can get into football shape without traditional aerobic work. You would think 🏈 coaches would hate traditional aerobic work... soft and slow.

I’ve had dozens of inquiries about shin splints, hamstring injuries, and generally injury-prone sprint groups in this, our first pandemic track season.

The view from 30,000 feet... “Why does this surprise us?”

Contributing factors (thread)

⬇️

1) For some kids, it was nearly 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ days since their last track meet.

2) Sprinting is the most EXTREME exercise in the human experience.

3) Running is not sprinting.

4) Many of our best male athletes spent the LONG off-season as body-builders.

⬇️

5) 🏋️‍♀️ and body armor are critical for injury prevention in collision sports. However, body-building, weight gain, and flex-posing 💪 are recipes for ⬆️ exposure to many non-contact injuries. Strong muscles can put ⬆️ stress on connective tissue (tendons, ligaments, bones, etc) ⬇️

Here's a thread to answer a question I get on a regular basis. Especially from 🏈 coaches.

How many sets and reps do you do in an X-Factor workout?

👇

This will drive 🏈 coaches nuts...

There's lots of standing around in an X-Factor workout. In order to have high outputs, you can't be focused on the tempo.

I tell people that 80% of my athletes are standing around resting, watching, and waiting to do the next rep.

This goes against everything we've been taught as teachers and coaches.

Keep them busy!

Constant activity allows us to control behavior!

You can't rock the boat when you are busy rowing!

Hard work!

Hustle!

But, John Wooden said "Never mistake activity for achievement."
