The role of specificity in S&C
-
Too much specificity will eventually create injury.
-
General movements create more balance in the movement system.
-
Athletes are not necessarily learning specific movements, they are learning the pillars of general movement literacy.
-
Planning the sport training itself with the S&C is vital for exercise choice.
-
In our training methodology we use ~20% “specific” exercises and 80% unspecific*
The role of specificity in S&C
-
Specificity might be a shortcut
-
Goal is to produce longevity AND
performance, not just performance
-
Specificity is complex
-
Variety is needed to deepen certain attractors of movement
• We do not attempt to create the same exact environment as the
sport itself, but something close enough. Sometimes structure- specificity is enough. Procedos gives the instant feedback and control for your next step in your training.
-
Think of slicing the movements and training them in parts.
-
When fatigued in one movement, we can change and create other overload stimulus.
