My most controversial speed training interview ever
By Athletes' Acceleration | May 23rd, 2008
Not too long ago I interviewed controversial speed
and strength coach Barry Ross.
The interview, as expected, got quite the reaction
from many of you.
In fact, some people were really mad at me. I mean
*really* mad.
So check out the email I sent and listen to my
conversation with Barry. And by all means, let me
know what you think:

What if I told you speed drills are a complete waste of
time?
Or if 90% of the training you do with athletes has no
real purpose?
How about if I told you that 15 minutes of uptempo walking
is all the ‘conditioning’ most athletes need?
Would you think I was crazy if I said you could make 400
meter runners significantly faster….never running further
than 70 meters?
What if I said there is only *one* exercise in the weight
room that athletes need to bother with?
Would that be difficult to comprehend?
For many of us, these concepts are the complete opposite of
what we’ve been told about strength and conditioning over
the years.
But in my latest interview with controversial coach
Barry Ross, he claims these very things to be true.
And more…
And he supports the claims with some compelling arguments
rooted firmly in science.
Barry believes this ‘minimalist’ approach to training
is the future of speed and strength development.
And he has a growing legion of followers who are getting
some eyebrow raising results.
So before you dismiss these ideas as ridiculous, you have
to listen to our discussion.
