This week, we dive deep into one of the most misunderstood and underexplained topics in the strength and conditioning world: Speed Strength.
Steph leads a detailed, no-nonsense breakdown of what speed strength really is, how it relates to power, and why modern terminology often does more harm than good in the practical coaching space. From the science to the programming, you’ll walk away with a clear understanding of how to develop explosive athletes.
We cover:
- The evolution of speed strength terminology from Russian and European roots to modern performance science
- Clear definitions of explosive strength, starting strength, and reactive strength—and how each fits into power development
- The force–velocity continuum (simplified)
- Practical training strategies and specialty techniques
- Why hypertrophy and max strength still lay the foundation for meaningful power development
- Real-world coaching insights, including Steph’s experience training NFL All-Pro Steven Jackson
