3. Nordics and Speed Blog Post

Nordics and Speed Blog Post

I think this blog is missing the fundamentals of KOT.

Ben isn't trying to say being a Nordic/split squat/piriformis master will make you a pro athlete -- he's amazing at it and he's not

He's saying that's the FOUNDATION on which these pro athletes are built. Stronger foundation = more potential.

The coach in the video of Razor curls even says: "this (razor curl) trains eccentric hamstring strength which is a very important aspect in hamstring health to sprinters, and all athletes"

I've worked with pro athletes and they're not the bombproof injury free ultra mobile people people think they are. One example is Olympic gold medalist weightlifter Mirabai Chanu, whose coaches credited her work with Aron Horschig to her win. Horschig has a YouTube video on meeting her and boy does she have some fundamental mobility issues

So your blog's thesis that "sprinters should just sprint more" is the same, tired philosophy that keeps people from being great

IMO
