I would like a video about Sprint mechanics. Specific drills to work on the various aspects of the technique. Videos of analysis of form would be nice too. So people could learn what needs to be corrected

I liked the comparison of distance runners and strength athletes sprinting compared to a sprinter because I can picture it in my head and it totally makes sense.

My ability to program is really limited to hypertrophy and powerlifting right now so it is great to start learning more about how to program for other athletic attributes.

the difference of weight in strength training exercises and how they related to increasing sprinting performance was very interesting

Always important to have solid technique when training. When you are considering proper technique and programming the plan to wrap around fixing different portions of the athlete will help make more of an all around athlete

I like how practical all of these concepts can be and how simply they can be applied. I also appreciated how the difference between agility and athlete's change in direction capacity. Thank you for all of this!

I found it so cool to see the gait analysis of the sprint!

This video gave me good insight on how to create effective programs for speed and agility athletes.

I enjoyed this video and learning more about the perceptual-cognitive ability when it comes to a person's agility. Especially how it has the several components like visual scanning and anticipation.

I learned that although it's important to be mobile, it's just as important to be strong and stable!

The explanation of the picture for sprinting technique was very helpful! I wasn't able to understand the difference between the different supports

The difference between mobility and flexibility was interesting to learn about!

The way that you highlighted the how to transfer one's strength training into their sprint performance through examples made it easier to understand. Thank you!

I found the fact that watching a distance runner and a resistance athlete run at full speed would show similar mechanics very interesting. I had never thought about that before, and had just assumed that a distance athlete would be better suited as they have experience running.

I really liked how you went through the technical guides lines and coaching to where the coach can focus for certain training goals. Thank you!

I never realized distance runners take shorter strides very interesting!

I didn't realize that there was a difference in desired ROM in different types of runners! It was also cool to learn about how our bodies can adapt based on our training.

I am always impressed with the high need for nervous system control is for athletes. The muscle and brain connection is so important to a high performing athlete!

I really like how you went over what all of the training goals should be when trying to train speed because that is something that I have been trying to work on so for me this was actually useful personally.

I really liked the technical guidelines and coaching because I can utilize them as a future coach!

It’s always interesting to learn about active mobility versus passive and how that applies to sports.

Thanks for sharing, great content! I am studying for my CSCS exam and your videos are really useful.

I have never thought about training deceleration, this could be hugely beneficial to an athlete such as defensive back, who might need to slow down quick if a receiver stops and sits or breaks in a different direction.

More impulse per step meaning the longer the step was super helpful in connecting all the steps. This video was very helpful in connecting the gym, in play sports, and sports specific movements that can be carried out in the gym.

There’s a lot to cover in this chapter, but one of the differences you pointed out that I didn’t know was between flexibility and mobility! I had always thought they were interchangeable but now i know flexibility is about the joint! Thanks for sharing

I thought that the discussion involving developing more speed and better agility was interesting. It is a cool concept that you can actually increase your max speed over time based on specific exercises.

Your explanations for the methods of developing speed were great for me in terms of clarifying some questions I had after reading the chapter.

I enjoyed learning about emphasizing perceptual-cognitive abilities in relation to sports as it is so important to be able to make good and quick decisions during a game and move well.

An interesting fact I learned was that with distance training you become less mobile and flexible. This is why it is important to pay attention to different ranges of motions when training.

The agility developments steps really helped me understand the thought process and knowledge that goes into making a strength plan for each individual athlete based off tests and equipment.

I thought that was interesting to listen to the different agility strategies involving Steps 3-6 which focuses on listing a plan that distributes the time needed to practice agility.

I found it interesting how the development of perceptual-cognitive abilities is just as important as change-of-direction ability when training for agility.

I enjoyed learning the importance of not only strength and stability but mobility and flexibility as well

Loved learning about some more programming that deals with things other than muscle growth but rather FTM that focus and allows us to increase our speed and agility

I liked how you stressed the importance of training deceleration along with acceleration for change of direction

I liked the example you gave for perceptual-cognitive ability.

Yes! More speed education please!

Really fun to learn about the application of active mobility vs passive mobility. I have personally been seeing how it plays such a big role in overall strength and a feeling of body space confidence that translates to strength and stability while doing mobility training.

I find it very interesting how mobility is a major part in speed and agility training. This is something I overlook when I train, but I now know that being able to get into deeper ranges of motion can allow my body to produce more force and ultimately get me to be faster and more agile.

I feel like in this day in age as an athlete people always want to get faster and stronger, this lecture gave me a good introduction on what an athlete has to do to try and get faster.

The overview on mobility versus flexibility was helpful!

The relationship between mobility, flexibility, and the adaptations athletes naturally make in both of these in order to optimize their effectiveness in their sport is so interesting

It makes sense that for a resistance program to benefit sprinting, it would have to follow the principle of specificity!

I had no idea there was a difference in desired ranges of motion in different types of runners. I just assumed it was all based on different muscle fibers, but the body is so amazing in how it can adapt based on our needs and goals. Great video!

I really enjoyed learning the differences between mobility and flexibility!

My main takeaway from this video is that agility requires perceptual- cognitive ability which is the ability to think quickly and respond to stimulus.

I find the different running mechanics behind speed and agility to be quite interesting.

Sir you are doing amazing job👍

Thank you

For this video I want to remember that periodization is important for program design to maximize the athletes potential and gains, and recovery periods.

I had no idea that there was such a difference between mobility and flexibility.

I thought it was interesting when you mentioned how distance runners and sprinters have different ranges of motion, but I surprised how distance runners and power lifters could have more similar ranges of motion when running.

A question I have on agility is; Is cognitive ability or deceleration/acceleration more important in improving agility?

I'd like to pull up those papers and get the "wordy" details. The more info the better.

I never considered training deceleration. So often do people train acceleration for how little deceleration is trained

hi sir, i m looking for the 3rd part of this chapter but couldn't find it..

Another great video, doc. But why do the comments in all your videos all sound the same lol. Are they from your students?

Hello Dr Goodin, I recently got an project from my exercise science class to make a "program design for resistance training" which videos should I watch and what other resources would you advice. I'd really appreciate if you could help me. Thank you for uploading videos for exercise science everyone in my class uses your videos to prepare for tests and exams.

Does anyone have the link to the paper he was talking about?

What you have in CSCS study guide sir....? Expect from your free vedios

Hi Dr. I am looking for a mentor do you provide mentorship, if so how can i best get in touch?
