First principle thinking is essential to ensure your practice is grounded in robust logic & reason.

First principles are the definitions, propositions and assumptions which provide the groundwork for quality work. Systems are developed from these principles

How do you define 'true plyometrics'?

Is it all about contact time being <0.250s?

Not at all.

Verkhoshansky describes the CYCLE of TRUE PLYOMETRICS as follows:

Phase 1: “Arrival”
Verkhoshansky terms this the 'initial momentum phase'. Here the body & limbs are arriving

Body composition is a hugely important part of the performance picture for numerous reasons.

It's something we have to be aware of and discuss, it's the HOW we engage in those conversations that is massively important.

Great work from those Sport Ireland⬇️

Keep spreading the good word Eamonn
(I was egotistical enough to add in the pre-activation phase, due to its value in plyos)
