The Best Way to Build Strength AND Flexibility
____
In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy discusses how strength and flexibility can both be achieved through the use of eccentric training. He defines eccentric training, how it can can also reduce the risk of injury, and with the help of Ben Patrick (AKA TheKneesOverToesGuy!) he gives examples of exercises and how to incorporate this into your routine. He also compares this method to static stretching, talks about what static stretching can and cannot do, and if you should incorporate both eccentric training and static stretching.

The split squad looks good but reminded me of high school weight lifting class when my coach told me to keep my knee above my ankles to avoid injury but this position has your knee well past the ankle

@theanatomylab 5 ай бұрын

Yeah, old traditions die hard... The knees go over the toes/ankles all the time when sprinting, jumping, changing direction, etc., so it seems crazy to think that we wouldn't train for this in a more controlled environment like the weight room. @TheKneesovertoesguy actually has a lot of content discussing this and how there isn't really any evidence to show that going over the toes/ankles is harmful, actually the opposite...

Thanks for corroborating my hypothesis about the importance of strengthening the muscles at the end range of motion, particularly a newly acquired range of motion. I've seen lots of folks (martial artists) end up with injuries after being proud of recent flexibility gains. I've always thought it was because they didn't bother to increase their strength along with that flexibility which left them prone to injury.

Sign up for the ATG program. I’m 49 with decent enough mobility to lift weights and do CrossFit, but certainly can no longer do it daily. I am on week 4 of the zero knees program and have more ROM in my knees with a bit better flexibly. Ben’s team is always available to help via a chat portion of the app that includes a video upload. It’s worth a try.

I would always go for stretching over strengh, since I believe in the long-term it will benefit more, focusing on aerobics, especially with the autoimmune targeting my spine.

Great video 👍 As usual. However, I wonder if you could make a video on tendons breaking. Im in my 60s and have always stretched before I workout. Im not into bulking up so no extremely heavy weights or super intense lifts. Three weeks ago I abruptly woke to extreme pain in my left arm and a massive bruise and a large lump in the area if the bicep. Turns out a "bicep brachii" tendon broke ! No warning. No pain ( until it broke) it just snapped.

As always, informative and full of new learning. Thanks guys, and keep it up! On a side note, I'm distractedly puzzled by the pervasive mispronunciation of eccentric in physiology / anatomy circles. There are 2 Cs, not 1, so the Cs should sound similar to how we pronounce "accelerate". Google "define eccentric" to hear the original pronunciation (and the broader use of the term). I realise the mispronunciation may seem correct and normal if it's the only way you've heard it pronounced, so I'm super curious about the origin of this and how it got to be "normal". Any ideas, anyone?

Your knee crosses over your toes all of the time in sports, and some of the forces generated in sports are often time more than that which occur in the weight room. @TheKneesovertoesguy actually has a lot of content specifically covering the knee going over the toe (much more than I could cover in a quick post...) and where the past misconception came from.

What a great video share, thank you. I am older, lost muscle mass, with minimized strength, and gained belly fat. Having been classified 6 of 9 points in h-EDS scale, my health needs serious correcting. Never too late to start and take the next step. People (medical providers, caregivers, therapists, etc) cannot tell me why I hurt so much with Ehlers Danlos, but they ARE telling me to strengthen and stretch. The problem happens is that I'm already too stretchy and bend too far in many areas. Finding the best exercises and modes of movement for me is critical. I like your video and I am going to take it and run with it, see if I can find more solid information pertinent to my body and life. Thank you very much for gifting me with this little bit to my next step. Happy New Year!

Be really careful. As an eds sufferer I can tell you the rules for us are different and most health care professionals and fitness instructors don't have a clue. Flexibility is absolutely not something we need to increase. Strength and muscle mass are important and harder to build and maintain but this has to be done carefully. Get in touch with the erhlers danlos society before you just follow this video because some of these suggestions will be really damaging.

You should do a deep dive on Bikram yoga! Very similar concepts but from a yoga framework. I started doing it 10 years ago and it greatly increased my strength and mobility which made me able to progressively grow in other workouts like running and cycling. This is specific to Bikram yoga not vinyasa.
