French Contrast Method W/ Tigers Pitcher, Aaron Hasse 1. OISO Split-Squat Pin Pull x 5 sec./side 2. Alt. Split-Squat Jumps x 2/side 3. Alt. Band-Resisted Split-Squat Jumps x 2/side 4. Alt. Band Accelerated Split-Squat Jumps x3/side Here we’re using the French Contrast Method in our peaking phase. The idea is to stimulate the high threshold motor units with a low-velocity, high-load exercise like OISO Split-Squat Pin Pull in the video. This ramps up the nervous system and activates fast twitch fibers, enabling Aaron to produce greater force in the jumps that follow. By integrating these four exercises, we can boost both peak power and endurance.

A typical squat session from this past weekend The emphasis is tonnage with high outputs within a more strict time frame than you would use if you were training for strength rather than hypertrophy These reps are always going to be high effort, velocity based failure not literal rep failure. The speeds are between .75 and .5 Rest as needed with the intent to complete as fast as possible. If you want the details of how much weight to use and the science around the rest times check the links below

Neural drive is the intensity of the signal sent from the CNS to muscles, dictating recruitment of muscle fibre and the force produced. It represents the neuromuscular ability to increase muscle tension, power, and speed It deteriorates with age. Older adults cannot "turn up the volume" of the neural signal as high as younger people. We can slow the decline via Maximal strength training and Power (high velocity) training. You want both. Heavy RT alone is not sufficient. These are 2 simple examples of high intensity movements. Whether a sprinter or someone not wanting to move increasingly slowly as they age, employ them 🦥 or 🤸? #AGEility

The future fight isn’t manned or unmanned—it’s both, integrated and acting interchangeably. High-end platforms that command and endure anchor the force. But wars are won by speed, iterating in real time, and scaling combat power without delay. That’s why we are building a true high-low mix of frigates, small surface combatants, and fully integrated unmanned systems. Paired with platforms like the new frigate and MUSVs, we’re expanding sensing, distributing targeting, and increasing fires—without locking capability into a single hull. This is how we maintain control of the seas and project power where it matters.

POV: you stopped lifting heavy and threw 98 MPH Up until I threw 95, and even in pro ball with the Phillies and Rangers, all I tried to do in the weight room was lift as heavy as I could. Now that I’m trying to throw 100 miles an hour, I’ve realized that’s not the most efficient way to train. This is something I see a lot of guys struggle with. They go to college, get bigger and stronger, but don’t throw harder. And they wonder why. The biggest reason is they’re not training rate of force development. In the pitching delivery, you only have milliseconds to produce force. If you can’t produce a high amount of force in that time, your velocity will be limited. Once I started incorporating rate of force development into my training, I began climbing into the 96, 97, 98 mile an hour range. My favorite ways to train this are overcoming isometrics, oscillatory work, explosive lifts, VBT-style training, ballistic barbell movements, and plyometrics. All of these teach you how to produce force fast, not just how much you can lift. I also created a full guide on this. If you want it, comment “guide” and I’ll send it to you.

Losing velocity in-season isn’t normal You lose it because you stop training with purpose like you were in the off-season. Most pitchers shift into “competition mode” once the season starts—cutting strength work, avoiding intent, and living their life game to game. That’s why performance falls off. Here’s the reality: In-season isn’t about doing less—it’s about doing the right things at the right dose. ✔️ Maintain strength (or you’ll lose it fast) ✔️ Keep high intent exposures (velocity is a skill) ✔️ Manage fatigue without eliminating stimulus The athletes who dominate late in the season aren’t guessing—they’re following a plan. That’s the difference between: ➡️ Feeling worn down by week 4 ➡️ Or finishing the season stronger than you started If you’re serious about your development, you can’t afford the setback. Our training plans are comprehensive and tackle players needs all season long — strength, mobility, skill development, workload management. #DominateTheZone

“Train like an athlete, not like a bodybuilder” Is an overused, misunderstood, and over simplistic term. But it does hold some truth. It doesn’t mean neglecting basic hypertrophy and strength work. That’s stuff is incredibly valuable. Yet, it does mean taking a more balanced approach to training. Most sporting actions like sprinting, tackling, and changing direction happen within milliseconds. In order to maximise this transfer, you’ve got to train high rate of force development exercises. Most rugby, american football, and GAA athletes I’ve worked with over the last 15 years are relatively strong but have neglected proper sprint and plyometric training. I think they’d benefit massively from training more like a sprinter. As a bare minimum you should be hitting: 150m of sprinting once per week, 30 hops or bounds, 20 maximal jumps, and 150m of skipping.

Do you need to train heavy to build muscle? 💪 For years the mantra was you need to go heavy to build muscle. Or you needed to go heavy to stimulate large type II fast twitch fibers but go light for more reps to stimulate smaller type I fibers. But new research has challenged that dogma. Several meta-analysis have shown similar muscle growth with low loads vs high loads when set number is matched & proximity to failure is similar (PMIDs: 28834797, 35015560, 33312275, & 33433148). While muscle hypertrophy was not different between high and low load training, strength increased significantly more with high load training in all these meta-analysis As far as targeting fiber types, it becomes kind of irrelevant when you take an exercise close to failure because fiber types tend to be recruited in order from smallest to largest. So with high load training, small & large fibers get recruited quickly but you don’t do many reps. With low load training, you initially recruit smaller fibers but as the muscle fatigues it is forced to recruit the larger fibers as the exercise is taken close to failure. The net effect is that taking sets close to failure with high or low loads produces a lot of muscle activation and similar hypetrophy The take home is, do what you enjoy if muscle growth is the goal. Just make sure you train HARD & go close to failure (within a few reps) & do enough total sets. But if strength is a priority you’ll need to train heavy & be careful going to failure as it can impair strength gains From my first conversation with Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D.

There are multiple factors at play that will influence where Erin goes. One is over western Canada! The main uncertainty is the shape, and strength, of the Bermuda High — a large high pressure system sprawled from the Azores to near Bermuda. It dominates the Atlantic, and acts as a force field of sorts that blocks hurricanes. It’s what’s suppressing Erin south right now. In the coming days, Erin will probably arc around the western side of the Bermuda high as it curves north. That’s why the shape and strength of the Bermuda High are so important. A stronger/farther west Bermuda High would potentially shunt Erin west-southwest, bringing it closer to the Bahamas and perhaps southeastern U.S. A weaker Bermuda High would allow Erin an out-to-sea “escape route” earlier, sparing most of North America any impacts. Either way, Bermuda and the Canadian Maritimes are at the greatest risk of impacts. The shape of the Bermuda High will be influenced by two “upper-level lows,” or pockets of cold air, low pressure and spin at high altitudes. Those two disturbances will roll across North America and work to erode the western side of the Bermuda High. One will arrive Friday, and the other on Tuesday. The latter is currently located over Yukon, Canada. Because it had previously been over the Gulf of Alaska, meteorologists didn’t have the ability to release weather balloons into it. Now that it’s moving over land, more weather balloons will “sample” its structure. That data will be pumped into weather models, helping to improve simulations. Subsequently, we’ll have a much better idea of how the upper-air weather pattern over North America — and the shape of the Bermuda High and eventual track of Erin — by probably Wednesday afternoon.

‼️‼️🇺🇲🇮🇷 The air corridors over the Levant have lit up with heavy logistical activity, signaling an intensive shift in high-altitude support operations across the region. Five U.S. Air Force KC-135R Stratotanker refueling aircraft were recorded launching in rapid sequence from Tel Aviv, setting off immediate speculation across regional military tracking networks. The departure of these critical force multipliers from Israeli airspace highlights a significant movement of aerial refueling capacity positioned directly along primary flight corridors in the Middle East. Mass airborne tanker movements of this scale typically serve as a primary indicator of sustained, long-range tactical aviation operations. By pushing multiple aerial tankers into the sky simultaneously, military planners are either extending the loiter time of combat air patrols, establishing refueling tracks for deep-strike strike packages, or executing a high-tempo staging maneuver to keep regional air assets fully fueled and combat-ready.

The Most Underrated Way to Gain 3–5 MPH. This might be the most underrated way to add three to five miles an hour. Almost nobody in baseball is talking about it. It’s called overcoming isometrics. When I first started training to throw a hundred, I thought getting stronger just meant lifting heavier. But throwing isn’t just about strength. It’s about how fast you can fire those muscles. You have to go from relaxed to full effort in a split second. I wasn’t training that at all. That’s when I found overcoming isos. Pushing as hard as possible against something that doesn’t move. It sounds simple, but it works. It teaches your nervous system to fire everything at once. It improves rate of force development and neural drive. That carries over to throwing harder, jumping higher, and sprinting faster. Once I added them in, my velocity jumped about three miles an hour in a few weeks. Here’s how I use them. Split stance isos that match my throwing position. That trains my lower body to put force into the ground. Trap bar iso pulls for total body force. Bench press isos for upper body power. My favorite is tempo isos. Relax for a second, then push as hard as possible for one to two seconds. Reset and repeat. It trains you to go from relaxed to max effort fast. That’s exactly what you need in the pitching delivery.

Muscle strength is arguably one of the most important predictors of healthspan and longevity—far more than muscle mass alone. Low muscle strength is associated with a 50% higher risk of early death. The good news is that strength can be regained at any age through resistance training, even in your 90s. One study showed that 90-year-old participants increased their strength by 174%, walking speed by 48%, and thigh muscle mass by 9% after just 8 weeks of high-intensity resistance training (PMID: 2342214). This highlights that age-related strength loss is primarily a reversible decline in muscle quality—not just lost muscle mass. But there’s another key piece: protein. For older adults, consuming about 1.6g/kg of body weight in protein daily has been shown to maximize gains in both muscle strength and mass. Combining resistance training with adequate protein intake is a game-changer for improving biological resilience, mobility, and overall quality of life as we age. I cover all this and more in Episode 97: The Science of Protein. It’s a must-watch for anyone looking to improve their health or help loved ones do the same. Watch Episode 97 now:

Ok so Highguard Episode 2 removed a super dope Movement tech that i feel was actually very good for the game. Mantle-Glide. Originally discovered by injy. There was a momentum carry system in place that "remembered" your speed before a mantle and carried it after the mantle ended. This worked from low to high speeds. Redmane for example could fly out of a mantle with his gun out. What i'm most disappointed by is that this also affects fairly low velocity Mantle-glides. You could skipjump into a Mantle, and with good timing could skipjump out of the Mantle-Glide carrying over a bit of the first skip-jump making the one after the mantle stronger. This opened up sooooo many parkour routes. And was exactly the type of nuanced micro movement tech i was missing from the game. I was just starting to explore the Maps with it and would have covered it in my Movement Guide. I would have argued that it should totally stay even if it was unintentional. I get that they might have wanted to clamp down on some of the Warden combinations. But that the low speed version also got axed just sucks :(

A Chinese team has unveiled a robotic dog that sprinted into the "10-second club" of the 100-meter dash, marking a new technological advancement in robotics. The researchers behind this project, a collaboration between a humanoid innovation institute under Zhejiang University (ZJU) and Hangzhou-based startup Mirror Me, took cues from the joints and paws of animals like black panthers and jerboas to improve the robot's high-speed movement in terms of strength, flexibility, power, precision and fluidity. Its development commenced in 2018 and spanned six years, during which significant advancements were achieved through multiple innovative upgrades in both control algorithms and hardware structures. Now, the team has developed advanced high-power-density, high-load motor drivers, laying the foundation for the next generation of industrial quadruped robots and expects the new generation can sprint at 15 meters per second.

🇮🇱 The Israeli Air Force has released its first official report: 📌 “Since the early morning hours, approximately 200 fighter aircraft, under the direction of Military Intelligence and Air Force command, have carried out a large-scale strike on the missile systems and defensive infrastructure of Iran’s terrorist regime in western and central Iran.” 📌 “This is the largest aerial operation in the history of the Israeli Air Force, conducted with meticulous planning and high-quality intelligence, involving synchronized action by hundreds of aircraft. Air Force planes dropped hundreds of bombs on approximately 500 targets, including air defense systems and missile launch sites across various sectors of Iran.” 📌 “The strike on defense systems enabled the achievement of air superiority over Iranian airspace and dealt a heavy blow to the regime’s primary offensive capabilities — particularly ballistic missile launchers located in western Iran.” 🟨 The U.S.–Israel air operation against Iran has now been underway for more than 11 hours.

General "Raizin" Caine, details the precision extraction mission in Venezuela: "Over the course of the night, aircraft began launching from 20 different bases on land and sea across the Western Hemisphere. In total, more than 150 aircraft, bombers, fighters, intelligence, reconnaissance, surveillance, rotary wing, were in the air last night. "Our youngest crew member was 20 and our oldest crew member was 49. And there's simply no match for American military might. As the night began, the helicopters took off with the extraction force, which included law enforcement officers, and began their flight into Venezuela at 100 feet above the water. As they approached Venezuelan shores, the United States began layering different effects provided by SPACECOM, CYBERCOM, and other members of the inter-agency to create a pathway. "Overhead, those forces were protected from aircraft- were protected by aircraft from the United States Marines, the United States Navy, the United States Air Force, and the Air National Guard. The force included F-22s, F-35s, F-18s, EA-18s, E-2s, B-1 bombers, and other support aircraft, as well as numerous remotely piloted drones. As the force began to approach Caracas, the joint air component began dismantling and disabling the air defense systems in Venezuela, employing weapons to ensure the safe passage of the helicopters into the target area. "The goal of our air component is, was, and always will be to protect the helicopters and the ground force, and get them to the target, and get them home. As the force crossed the last point of high terrain where they'd been hiding in the clutter, we assessed that we had maintained totally the element of surprise. As the helicopter force ingressed towards the objective at low level, we arrived at Maduro's compound at 1:01 AM Eastern Standard Time, or 2:01 AM Caracas local time, and the apprehension force descended into Maduro's compound and moved with speed, precision, and discipline towards their objective, and isolated the area to ensure the safety and security of the ground force while apprehending the indicted persons. "On arrival into the target area, the helicopters came under fire and they replied with that fire with overwhelming force in self-defense. One of our aircraft was hit, but remained flyable, and as the President said earlier today, all of our aircraft came home. And that aircraft remained flyable during the rest of the mission. As the operation unfolded at the compound, our air and ground intelligence teams provided real-time updates to the ground force, ensuring those forces could safely navigate the complex environment without unnecessary risk. "The force remained protected by overhead tactical aviation. Maduro and his wife, both indicted, gave up and were taken into custody by the Department of Justice, assisted by our incredible US military with professionalism and precision, with, with no loss of US life. After securing the indicted persons, the force began to prep for departure."
