So why then would we ever dial thing back or slow things down? If force is a function of mass and acceleration wouldn’t slower concentric and eccentric movements hinder rather than help?

On todays #coachescorner Ash and Andy discuss when you would implement tempo training into your own programs. Why you might do so and when may be inappropriate.

Whether it’s and acute injury, a little niggle or something that has been brewing for a while. What is important is that we take the necessary steps to plan around the issue.

Are we modifying the training plan accordingly to maximise progress during a somewhat tumultuous time?
