Great vid! I particularly enjoyed what I *think* is the irony of using Will Ratelle to demonstrate band-assisted jumps, as he's now also a fairly vocal critic of them for the same reasons. Of course, if it isn't Will Ratelle then this is a silly observation! Loving these latest video series Matt. At 41 years old and trying to hoop, plyometrics are proving to be the missing link in keeping me moving properly. Keep doing the (plyo) lord's work! P.s. Plyolord not a bad nickname?
Hello sorry to bother I really enjoy the video but I have a question. When you talk about the assisted jumping as a bad choice because it chases velocity but it doesn´t gives overload but if with that exercise that is a plyometric I increase the height of my jump I´m going to overload the body somehow no? Thanks for the help.
But the assisted jumping uses elastic bands. When you would get the rise in overload, the bands help you by decreasing your bodyweight, since their fully elongated.
How can vertical forces be 5-6xBW for sprinting but then it’s so low down with respect to force on the force velocity curve? I would imagine even loaded squat jumps are not 5-6x BW forces.

Yes that was Will as a demo😂. I thought it was kinda funny too.
Loved the cameo
Chat, is French contrast cooked?

Good stuff 😎

Because the force velocity curve is not truly build for dynamic movement. It’s built for barbell or weight room based movements
