Elite trainers have become so much more knowledgeable.
Good to know he has a background, understanding and personal experience applying kinesiology and sports science.
Was able to apply that to his own life choosing to put off surgery for a torn ACL his senior year by strengthening certain muscles, like the hamstrings needing to be stronger than the quads so during deceleration the quad isn’t going to move the knee.
I like when he said that when he watches football what he watches is movement. He understands what muscles need to get stronger to improve that player’s movement patterns and tailor’s his training specifically for that player. Could see that in some of the pictures Tua posted like balancing on a bosu ball on one leg, body parallel to the ground, chain in one hand, catching an object with the other. All that is directly related to his hip. Good stuff.
Cool dude as well. Tua was in good hands this summer.
Tua works out in early morning, during the day, and then goes home to study film at night.
I expect a huge jump in Tua’s performance this year.
Like Tua has said was going to do, he is focusing on things he has the power to improve.
