Quickness rely on our ability to produce high-speed movement which does not encounter large external resistance or require great strength, power or energy consumption. (siff. Pg. 134) Quickness is heavily dependent on neuromuscular efficiency and our ability to receive and quickly process information, involving multiple abilities that are not necessarily dependent on strength. The latency phase and response phase of reaction time, our “ability to accurately anticipate trajectory”, sensing time, and decision time all play a pivotal roll in quickness. @mcquilkin it would seem that the improvement in quickness which rely’s on the response phase and not the latency phase, due to genetics, is directly related to decision time and an athletes ability to complete a given task with unconscious competency? so we improve quickness in sport through practice of specific movements, improving our ability to efficiently complete a given motor task as soon a electrical activity reaches the given muscle, reps on reps. We can also improve quickness through the ability to express the movement with the utmost proficiency and efficiency. It seems that quickness rely’s heavily on building good movement patterns, intra/intermuscular coordination and the efficiency of the kinematic system as well as practice. “movement time is strongly influenced by motor coordination or precision of movement”(siff, pg. 134)
Reactive ability relies on our efficiency to utilize the SSC and our ability to generate force as quickly as possible against an external force. Both require neuromuscular efficiency but reactive ability also rely’s on force production unlike quickness. The SSC can be positively influenced through variations of strength training, where emphasis is put on a “faster transition from eccentric to concentric work”. We see this in our CAT lifts, as well as repeated loading and unloading in jump training, or sprint training utilizing bounding movements, or COD.

Attacking hip mobility, shoulder mobility, trunk strength, etc, as well as squatting regularly. So the squat becomes more than just a bilateral hip hinge where the measure of success is point A-point B… THe squat becomes the bilateral hip hinge and everything that surrounds it and allows the athlete to complete it correctly. I find that almost no one is prepared, from day one, to correctly execute the squat this way. My athletes and clients become frustrated with the fact that to successfully complete the PA style squat you must strengthen the trunk, strengthen the adductors and abductors, strengthen the shoulder girdle, especially when every jamoke around them is just dropping down and standing up like everything is all good. BUT, every single person I have worked with tells me that after this initial phase, once the movement pattern is learned, they feel stronger, more stable, and powerful implementing the PA style vs the typical toes out, rounded upper back Hip Hinge deadlift/squat style we see. </span></span>

Specific adaptations to imposed demands. This might be simplified but im just gonna get the discussion rolling. If the specific adaptation we, or our athlete desires is imrproved athleticism that obviously the SAID principle would be paramount in designing a program. As PA space monkeys we know that Athleticism is an athletes ability to seemlessly and effortlessly move through space with primal movement patterns to complete a given motor task…(from memory, sorry…) As PA space monkeys we also know that there is a certain hierarchy to performance that an athlete must move through if they are to develop athleticism to their highest ability.

We determine a volume and intensity distribution to drive optimal, and accelerated adaptation specific to the athlete’s sport.”-John Welbourne
SO, that being said, if there is an established pathway to athleticism, to competitive performance, through training, if an athlete can display characteristics of athleticism, and those characteristics can be adapted and altered than it can be said that specific demands can achieve that specific adaptation. If an athlete’s ability to be athletic relies on his ability to seamlessly and effortless complete a given motor task using primal movement patterns, and we know that proficiency in primal movement patterns has to do with intra and intermuscular coordination, and we know from our discussions around the novice effect that those two things are skills to be developed, than we can use our knowledge to impose specific demands on our athletes to achieve and accelerate the adaptation of those skills and eventually athleticism.

So really the PAAP, is our coaches eye? Nothing written down.

Just to clarify. Tex asked me to film a see-saw walk with at least 5 faults in it. I threw in a few extra just to be safe. Totally planned/staged, typically my movement is perfect.

Could have pulled this from the book or anyone elses post, but i chose to take it from chads…
”Siff defines precision as “the ability to execute a single goal-directed task with the smallest degree of error or the least number of random moves during performance of the task.” (Siff, M. p133)
Just saying…. “least number of random moves during performance of the task”I’m imagining your argument is that the plyo-step is not wasted movement, but if we are speaking in relation to quickness and reactive ability…im not so sure… If the movement is a forward motion, we receive stimulus and our first step is backwards..?
-
All Ill say is just because someone is doing something, and just because it works out for them one time, doesn’t mean its right or will work everytime. Sure, he “plyo” stepped, and it worked out this time, but we never see all the plays where it doesn’t work. They dont make the highlight reels.

@menacedolen Are you saying that quickness can not be developed outside of SST? I was looking at the development of quickness through an increase proficiency withing the application of the kinematic system… Obviously genetics play a huge part but if we can improve our kinematic link, chain system, and its operational efficiency, cant we improve quickness?

I always try to make the connection with my athletes to thier sport and the tows forward position. If you are strong in a toes forward squat than you will be strong in competition, as long as you’re not a fencer. Hockey, baseball, Volleyball, football, all my athletes make that connection which is awesome, with gen. pop folks its a little bit trickier. I typically point out walking, Look at how you walk, toes out or toes forward, how SHOULD you walk? Once we have established the toes forward position and its importance in daily life, I can draw the connection between building good movement patterns in the gym/training and its relevancy to their everyday life. No one should walk like a duck.

Athlete vs athleticism? I keep going back to Athleticism as a thing, something that some people posses innately more than others, and something that can be developed and grows. certain people display certain levels of athleticism or coordination from birth that others simply do not. One guy can walk and chew gum without falling over, the other can not. Athletes also possess varying degrees of athleticism, even within the same sport. Athletes can be extremely athletic and mediocre in their sport, and athletes can be incredibly good at their sport but not incredibly athletic, depending on the sport of course. I think the fact that you can have people in the same sport doing relatively similar things but coming out the other end with wildly differing abilities proves that athleticism is a thing that can be developed. Otherwise we wouldn’t get better and i think there would be more similarities among athletes and their abilities, considering we are all the same species. I also apply this same sort of “logic” to the SAID principle and its relevancy to athleticism. If we can have people participating in the exact same activities but their skill levels so wildly different this can only be a product of their training. the things they do outside of actual competition determines their ability during competition, and their performance is an indicator for the success or failure of that training…
