This in-depth dialogue led by Adarian explores the evolution of plyometric thinking — from the traditional stretch–shortening cycle to a more precise understanding of tension, reset, and the role of the heel in athletic movement. Through a back-and-forth discussion, key biomechanical principles are unpacked, including amortization timing, Achilles pre-tension, plantar plate function, and the concept of stretch-to-stretch.
A must-read for coaches, therapists, and movement professionals interested in redefining how power, timing, and tension are organized in the body.
