Hi Supertraining fans,
Much to my surprise I saw that my post 1 month ago was the last post to this forum.
I started visiting this forum some 10 years ago, when Mel was - of course - the leading poster here.
I hope to stimulate discussion by bringing up some comments, based especially on Mel's book Supertraining.
I will refer to the page in the book (6th edition) if possible.
-----------------------------
FORCE-VELOCITY
I will start with the use of the force-velocity curve in sports (also based on the 1RM discussion early on);
In most text books and educational centers we learn about the Hyperbolic force-velocity curve, discovered by Hill (page 19).
On page 147, the limitations of the force-velocity curve are discussed. Specifically, Hill's force-velocity curve has been found in research with isolated muscles. The consequences of this isolated force on - for example - the ground reaction force during a squat depends on (a.o.) the length of the muscle, the influence of the muscle on the joints, coordination with other muscles. When studying the F-v curve in throws or jumps, the relation is shaped differently (page 148) or seems linear (see http://orbi.ulg.ac.be/bitstream/2268/103152/1/Jidovtseff%201RM%20prediction.pdf. ).
The linear force-velocity curve is used in software of some training devices, in order to predict the 1RM without having to max out during the exercise.
As training effects are specific in technique, coordination, velocity, etc. it's good to know what quality exactly you want to improve, and what training program you should do.
Therefore, it's not only the 1RM that is of interest, yet the whole force-velocity curve at all velocities, especially those velocities produced during sports.
I look forward to your comments and/or experiences and research. Also I am interested to know what products are used and how it is used to get the results.
Cheers,

I remember we had a discussion on the paper (of which you provide the link)
already.
I can repeat what I said back then: the curve offered by the paper is
linear because it doesn't refer to instantaneous speed bu to average speed.
Hill's curve refers to instantaneous speed. By the way the link works only
if one deletes the last period.

Dear Supertrainers
I was hoping I might get a few different opinions on the issue of core
training. For many years we accepted that we should train the core, to
improve both posture and spinal control during dynamic movements to resist
displacing forces. Most of us have at some point made reference to McGill's
work. However, my debate is how we achieve this, as most core training
protocols tend to veer into isometric endurance, either by increasing time
in a plank or the sets and reps of a Swiss ball exercise. On the other hand,
what I want to achieve is the athletes ability to resist greater and greater
displacing forces (I also acknowledge that core endurance is valuable and
still has a role to play). So what are peoples thoughts on training core
strength as a different quality to core endurance?

Standing/Weight bearing Dynamic exercises are a good place to start. They
are functional and applicable to sports. Isometric non-weight bearing
exercises (planks) have little value for athletes. May have some value for
rehab. In additional to being a PT I was also a 19+meter shot putter in
college. I never came across a world class thrower's training log that
include isometric/ non-WB core exercises and throwers need to train their
core as much as anyone.

I concur that there is value in both. Increased strength could easily be achieved by modifying load or execution of many of the isometric exercises used.
