How to Turn Your Tendons Into SPRINGS | Takeaway Tuesday Ep. 2

Описание: Today we’re breaking down how to turn your tendons into springs, mastering the stretch-shortening cycle (SSC), improving amortization speed, and using isometric strength to jump higher.

This episode dives deep into how your tendons store and release elastic energy, why the isometric phase is key for an explosive vertical, and how to train your body to leak less energy when you jump. Plus, we talk about the downsides of isometric RFD, when to use it, and how to do it safely.

Topics Covered:
    •    How isometrics improve your stretch-shortening cycle
    •    Why stronger tendons = higher jumps
    •    The science behind SSC efficiency and amortization
    •    When to use isometric RFD (and when not to)
    •    Real tips you can use at home — no excuses!

Huge shoutout to John Evans and Isaiah Rivera from THP Strength for the knowledge and insight. These guys are the GOATs when it comes to vertical jump science and dunk training.
