Loading 🤝 Anatomy When we understand how the hamstrings work with the rest of the body, we can use foot angles, torso rotation, and a variety of loads to holistically strengthen and prepare them for sprinting As preparing the hamstrings for sprinting requires more than just…

The Home Run Derby 🏒 ⚾ By having control over the concentric and eccentric loads and velocities, you can dial in the exact stimulus you want. In this drill, the focus is on developing rotational power plus competing for output, while the machine slowly reels the line back in…

No arms ➡️ better legs A go-to for @korfist for taking the arms out of the equation to force the legs to do more of the work Normally in sprinting, the arms help balance the cross-crawl pattern. But remove that, and the athlete has to run more efficiently and effectively from…

Isokinetics for first step strength 👌 Creating max force at the exact joint angles you want using the Isokinetic Quick Start App to dial in the concentric speed limit Credit: @mdrachtraining

🚨 Great to see our latest paper now published… Factors differentiating change of direction performance in NCAA power 4 male basketball athletes 🏀🇺🇸 What best differentiated GUARDS vs BIGS? ❌ total COD time ✔️ Top Speed ✔️ Max Deceleration journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17…

Small dose, real results 🏉 Overview: -Sprint speed directly impacts scoring and defensive success in rugby -In-season training is often time-constrained, making speed development difficult to prioritize -This study tested whether targeted resisted sprint training can improve…

Changing crossover gait in 3 sessions: A case study on constraint-led speed work Crossover gait happens when an athlete steps across the midline, throwing off alignment, reducing efficiency, and increasing joint stress In just three sessions, this athlete cleaned up their…

Slingshot Speed with Variable Loading in 📍Australia Variable loading lets you set one load for the start of a sprint and smoothly/automatically adjust it once the athlete reaches a certain velocity In this case, more assistance is used early to reduce the effort it takes to…

@TrayvonBromell first overspeed session of the year 👀🤩😳 @1080motion 📈

If you can’t maintain proper running mechanics and technique don’t use high KGs on the 1080 for overspeed or resistance running . Just my suggestion. @fasterperiod @1080motion

Load-Velocity Profiling 🏃‍♂️‍➡️ Stop guessing and start giving athletes the exact load they need for their resisted sprints 🎯 Goal: see how load affects an athlete's sprint speed 👟 Task: sprint maximally at 3 different loads ✅ Result: a profile showing max velocity (predicted…

Isokinetic ➡️ Ballistic for First-Step Speed Awesome superset from Eric Hodgin of the San Diego Clippers: 1️⃣ Isokinetic 1-Step. The concentric speed is limited, so the athlete has to create max force against the 1080 Sprint 2. This primes that movement pattern for what’s next…

We’re excited to welcome @Jessepgreen as our new Director of Performance Science (West Region Manager)! Jesse brings over a decade of experience in elite sport environments across Australia (AFL) and the US (NBA, NHL, NCAA), with a background spanning S&C, sport science,…

🚨 Great to see our new article now accepted in IJSSC Factors differentiating change of direction performance in @NCAA Power 4 male basketball athletes 🏀 Excellently led by Adam Petway with @Dr_DanielCohen @OlaAthletic1080 @1080motion Out soon 👀 #deceleration #COD #NBA 🇺🇸

Aligning speed and strength 🏃🏋️ Aligning the stresses placed on your athletes by training similar qualities on the same day helps speed and strength complement each other, rather than clash Take a step back, ask what the goal and theme of each session is, and match your speed…

Acceleration is only half the equation Athletes also need to decelerate efficiently and effectively to stop, change direction, and stay healthy at game-speed The ADA test helps you measure how well an athlete can brake relative to how fast they can get moving. This provides…

Stacking drills in 📍Italy 💪 Resisted bounds at 10–12kg (~15–20% BW) supersetted with light block starts and accelerations ➡️ Using resistance for potentiation and to emphasize the big rocks of acceleration: big shapes, horizontal pushing, and intent ✅ When drills are paired…

Are you maximizing the power of assisted sprinting with your athletes? Join us in one week for a deep dive into overspeed and assisted sprinting on Tuesday, July 15 at 12PM CST / 1900 CET Hear practical insights from coaches across high school, college, and private sectors on…

Connecting with practitioners from all over the world in 📍 Italy At the 30th Annual Congress of @E_C_S_S, contributing to high-level conversations on all things human training, technology, and sport science. Always great getting to see clients in person as well And not a bad…
