马特·托姆（Matt Thome）

Today’s episode features a special coaching roundtable featuring three experts in the implementation of the “1x20” training system: Jeff Moyer of DC Sports Training, 马特·托姆（Matt Thome） of Michigan Tech University, and Ryan Bracius of Wisconsin Whitewater. Most folks familiar with Just Fly Sports and the podcast know of Jeff Moyer, as he has been a frequent guest and writer, and is also the first guy to really get me intrigued by the 1x20 system, and its benefits for athletes. Since then, Jeff has been a huge contributor to Just Fly Sports, and I’ve had a number of coaches ask me about the 1x20 system since our first episode together. I met 马特·托姆（Matt Thome） and Ryan Bracius in person at the Track Football Consortium VI in Chicago this past December. Matt is the head strength coach at Michigan Tech, working with football and basketball, and Ryan is developing some of the best football athletes in NCAA Division III at Wisconsin Whitewater. Both are getting fantastic results with rock-bottom injury rates. Matt had the idea of talking not just about “1x20”, but particularly about “life after 1x20”, or how to transition athletes to the next step in their training after the 1x20 system has run its course. It’s important to realize that coaches using the 1x20 model use much more than just this singular set and rep scheme. For those unfamiliar with the 1x20 system, a simple explanation is as follows: Start athletes out with 5-8 exercises, with 1 set of 20 reps each, building up to around 18-23 exercises over time. Instead of pushing the gas pedal down the first day with the intensity, the exercises are “slow-cooked” by gradually adding weight over time. When athletes reach adaptation (stop improving) 上 the sets of 20, then the next phase is 1x14, and finally 1x8. This system was taught to many coaches today by Yosef Johnson who was mentored by the inventor of the system, Dr. Michael Yessis. Coaches who have used the system have noted good to great gains in strength, but also in athletes' explosive KPI’s compared to other systems, as well as a reduction in injury rate. On the episode today, we go in-depth 上 each coach’s introduction to the 1x20 system, how they implement it, and what kind of results they are getting. We’ll also talk about why the 1x20 works so well from a physiological and neural level. The second half of the episode talks about the transition from the 1x20 system into other training methods, such as velocity based, and special strength training. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more.

Key Points: Jeff, Matt and Ryan’s initial experiences with the 1x20 system and results Implementation of the 1x20 system 上 the levels of the collegiate and private sector, and how the coaches work down to the 1x14 and 1x8 segments The thought process of when coaches funnel away from 1x20 into 1x14 and 1x8 setups The nature of velocity-based training workouts after the departure of 1x20 and 1x14 set rep setups Special exercises for use in velocity based, specific training periods Approaches to 1RM testing in the 1x20 system “(Regarding 1x20) Eventually we are covering every joint action, we have 18-23 different exercises 上 there” “We might start with 5-8 exercises, the fall is a lot of teaching and a lot of learning” “ My Freshmen will do 1x20 from August to Thanksgiving, my juniors and seniors who already have a very good base may 上 ly do 3-4 weeks of (1x20) to re-address it” “Generally I’d rather keep athletes in the 20’s longer and just switch exercises, rather than get them in the 14’s (Jeff Moyer)” “1x20 sets the scene for increasing connective tissue strength” “If we’re talking about the primary factors that are increasing a jump test or sprint test with just the 1 set of 20, it’s probably more related to motor unit coordination and motor control in general more than metabolic factors” “Transfer of training, we are looking at 上 e exercise to another, transfer in process of sports form, we are looking more globally, so the training “this” has an impact 上 the actual event itself, so it might be a nervous system impact or motor unit activation impact” “In my scenarios, 8’s end up being more velocity based… the strength comes so easily in the 20’s and the 14’s so when we are done with those phases, I don’t think they need more” “I’ve seen some really good success with using 3 velocity based sessions, and 上 e sessions where we do a set of 8 or a set of 8 and a set of 14” “Bondarchuk said let’s keep volume and intensity relatively stable and just use novelty as the stimulus to adapt” “It’s about finding the exercises with the best transfer, and then how can we best manipulate those exercises” About Jeff Moyer Jeff Moyer is the owner of Dynamic Correspondence Sports Training, whose motto is, “We Build Better Athletes.” At DC Sports Training, athletes work 上 the physical, mental, and visual aspects of the sports. Their goal is to deliver the athletes of the greater Pittsburgh area the highest, most efficient results year after year of training with us. We will exhaust our means in order for our athletes to achieve the highest results, and to create a system model that will develop our athletes both physically and intellectually. Education must be the road to which will help us set this standard. Our results will be the vehicle which to drive us.
