    7:10 - _'You got your strength training. You got your triple extension, but there is actually triple FLEXION. AND if you watch your footage, you might find a weak point. You might unlock a whole new level of athleticism that you didn't know you had...AND... unlock a whole new level of bulletproofing that you might not even realize how good...you could feel when you actually go to play sports and things like that until you address triple flexion with measurable overload.'_

    Tibialis is used when stopping and landing to accommodate for impact therefore strengthening those is also great for preventing ankle or leg injuries concerned with impact, speed and falling! Also more control on dynamic moves etc. Check also "titanium ankles" old parkour/tricking video for sitting variations as a "dropset" or easier variation for that exercise. Really underrated muscle.

    I am starting to do single leg jump and hitting the shuttlecock in mid air about 1.8m in height which i have much difficulty previously due to torn ligament injuries that have resulted in very weak wobbly knees.
    I also did some single leg squats on other days beside what were taught here.

    I rollerblade for life. I'm 40 and love it. Since I was 9. Time to get some more speed. I was always ok at it, ice skating too. I played pond hockey, not too serious. I was fairly quick. But running i was the slowest on the field for soccer or sprints on the track. I wish i knew this stuff back then. Time to get back into competition. I think I need some real competitive stuff, plan for next year. I want to rollerblade race just once in my life. But running is all over the place. Turkey trots.
    Skate sprint is different in some ways than running sprints. I seen that side by side with me vs the same person, running vs skates. In my teens and 20's.

    Thank you for including ankle flexion, Mark! Ankles are often ignored. But I see that you're in flexible shoes. We need the "fourth fold" in the foot. If you had super stable shoes on, you wouldn't be able to fold at the MP joint (metatarsal phalangeal joint) as much as you are in these exercises. Your toes are working because you've got great connection and awareness... see what happens when you start teaching / cueing / training the Fourth Fold - and you'll see massive changes - in less than 2 years :)

    @RahulPresentsKobe 3 года назад +7

    Would you suggest doing just these 3 exercises once a week for reasonably good results? I saw some of your other videos and other exercises, and I was wondering what's a reasonable amount to do to get great strength and foundation for the knees/hips/ankles like you are showing. Should I mix it up? 2 exercises this week, then another 2 next week, in addition to basketball/weight lifting? I do legs about once a week so I want to make sure it's not too much load on the quads/hamstrings to be doing this a day after legs or something like that, even if it's once a week.
    These videos are greatly appreciated so thanks!

    Hi, big fan! I always thought working your hip flexor is redundant because of how sitting shortens them and then working them exasperates the shortening even more. I thought foam rolling and glute strengthening were best for hip flexors.
    Can you please let me know your thoughts on that perspective? Thanks a bunch!!!

    Ive always had unusually large hip flexors. When I was young in my 20s I did 500 leg raises laying down. I have always(and still am at 54) been athletic but I was never a really fast runner. At 5,11 I was always slower than my older brothers who were about 5,7.

    What is better for training vertical jump (plyometric/power as right after warm up)?
    -Standing vertical (from dead start: as pure power)
    Or
    -Hurdle Jump(s) / Depth Jump (adding the reactive component: pure plyometric)
    I've tried both but I'm not sure which one works (or works for me) better, I'm having trouble increasing my vertical (I think it is for the fact that I dont do much jumping as a soccer player during games so the plyos before strenght training are almost all the vertical jump I do, I should go to a basketball court and try to dunk every once in a while haha).
    *I always figured that because playing sports you are doing plyometrics all day, pure power would be more beneficial, but I ask you because I haven't seen significantly better results with one method than the other.
    Thank you
