ThePman Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 How so? I'm not following you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimass Posted March 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I think I'm suggesting it as a result of volume of reps. Plyometric movements during the eccentric phase the muscle is absorbing the weight and momentum and generally involve mid to high repitition movements. Some of the study was completed observing isoinertial concentric and eccentric movements - so isn't this the same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePman Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 No way to know what the protocols were without getting the full paper, and 1996 may be too old for my online source. Lemme see if I can grab it and have a look. My hunch is that the increased eccentric strength is more due to having to rapidly absorb force from a landing than anything else, since that's what we see in every other plyo study (also turns up when using bands) - it's the quick catch (and usually reversal) that's important moreso than the volume itself.

ThePman Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Yeah scratch that, my access only goes back to mid-1997 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimass Posted March 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I thought bands would be slightly different but did come to mind - as isoinertial suggests the load is the same and movement is constant.I'm on a bit of a journal binge - I think I'll keep going and see what else is out there.

ThePman Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 If you're looking for stuff to support high-rep training, use the search terms "Kaatsu", "occlusion", or "ischemia" on Pubmed. That'll get you started with some good stuff. There's also some older stuff from 2000-2005 by Ahtiainen and by Hakkinen that will be of interest.

HumanPerformance Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 I remember seeing her train at Les mills back in the day - with Siobahn O'Neill I think from memory?Last time I saw Cathy was in the late 90s down at Voyager nightclub - most of the boys left their shirts on as i recall Yeah they were a couple back (her and Siobahn) they used to live together, and used to go everywhere together. A training partner (powerlifter) of mine used to go over there house all the time. This is when she used to train at Tower Ra Power gym. Man that was an awesome gym.Last I heard she was working as a bouncer in hamilton.Thats interesting that poliquin used to train her I didnt know that.
