Description

Rodrigo Alvira - Detroit Pistons Performance Coach & Founder of Spaniard Performance - joins us of the 119th episode of MTN. On this episode of the podcast we get into conversation around archetyping in sport, what really matters when looking at jump outputs on force plates, and we dive into a cool conversation around velocity based training (something that we have done very little of so far on this podcast). This episode was a special one in that we also are releasing it fully in Spanish. Check out either conversation!
