Welcome to Episode 37 of the Movement Logic podcast! In this episode, Laurel and Sarah talk about the connection between plyometrics, impact training, and bone building.You will learn: The difference between plyometrics and impact training. What we need to consider if we are using plyometrics and/or impact training to increase bone density. What the stretch-shortening cycle is and why it is important for plyometric exercise. The phases of the stretch-shortening cycle, and why the amortization phase must be short for an exercise to be plyometric. The differences and similarities between ballistic exercises and plyometric exercises (according to scientific and non-scientific sources). The mechanical and neurophysiological components of the stretch-shortening cycle. Exercises that utilize the stretch-shortening cycle and whether or not they are conducive to bone-building. Exercises that are not plyometric, but still build bone density. How to modulate intensity in plyometric exercise. What the appropriate volume is for plyometric exercise for beginners.LIFTMOR StudyVideo of women doing LIFTMOR InterventionEssentials of Strength and ConditioningJames Lederach, MS, CSCS on InstagramJames Lederach’s gym Heavy AthleticsSign Up Here for the Movement Logic Newsletter and receive our free Barbell Equipment Guide!
