ATHLETE.X Podcast

Today's guest is Daniel Back, a coach out of Austin, Texas. Dan coaches athletes in a variety of sports, helping them to achieve their best in sprinting, jumping, and their strength levels. Dan is well-known for his Instagram profiles @jump.science, @speed.science0, as well as his website, https://jump.science. This episode we dig into training sprinters both on and off the track, how to develop elasticity in athletes, and other topics related to being as athletic as possible.

Here I interview Rolf Ohman, inventor of the 1080 System, former Assistant Head Coach of the Chinese National Team, and current Head Coach for the Hong Kong National Team's jumps program. Rolf also coaches Jacod Despard, a successful Australian sprinter who has dropped from 10.59 in 2020 to 10.11 in 2022. Rolf's strength training methods have had a strong influence on my way of thinking, how I set up training, and the metrics I look at when tracking my performance. If you want to sprint faster, jump higher or farther, and want to be the most explosive athlete you can be, Rolf is the man to listen to. Follow Rolf on Instagram: https://instagram.com/tailwindsquad
