Athletic Development

[Nekrawulf]

This is my believed doctrine of Athletic progression, even in the sport of fitness.

Personal Training Hierarchy

Your thoughts?

I agree with the progression, but I believe sport and weightlifting shold be interchanged. Some people may be more inclined physiologically to excel in a certain sport. But until the sport is tried, they may not know. I beleive starting in the sport, and then tailoring the program around muscle imbalances and sport specific training. Just my 2 cents though

I like it, but I would put gymnastics with sport in the pyramid. Gymnastics is very difficult.

Thanks for the input.

Sport being the ultimate goal, is placed at the top of the pyramid as in mastery of all tiers below and application of learned skills in competition. This would include any sport specific training. As is you transfer sports, the basics remain the same, only the direct goal and specialization changes.

Manipulation of your own body should not be difficult as a healthy human. It is a basic survival skill =-]

[Nekrawulf]

Maybe I should word it differently... It does not seem to flow very well.

Even with the sidebar of molecular nutrition - cardiovascular competance - manipulation of self - manipulation of objects - and finally sport... something seems to get lost in translation.

I suck at sounding smart aka converying my thoughts in concise and adequate writing.

Im more apt to throw a few, fucking do it... it works... itll beat your ass's in there.

i have a question..




WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?


"molecular nutrition - cardiovascular competance - manipulation of self - manipulation of objects - and finally sport"

manipulation of objects? what are you fucken yoda?

[3v1lj03]

I don't really disagree with you on any philosophic level. And I love to watch the crazy crossfit training. I might even try it someday. But as to "functional strength" the only thing more functional than a 600 lb deadlift is a 700 lb deadlift because when you are that strong it's all functional. Since I have been strength training everything is easier Kids, work, farm, sex, everything. The pyramid I am not sure about gymnastics but I think you kind of redefine that a little to mean physical manipulation I could agree with that. Maybe
