ScottyIce Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 1 hour ago, Mike Mcdee said: You are right. David Goggins, former Navy SEAL talks about how the mind is a weak instrument and that the body is capable of much more than the mind believes. “He would say that when your mind is telling you you’re done, you’re really only 40 percent done. And he had a motto: If it doesn’t suck we don’t do it. And that was his way of forcing us to get uncomfortable to figure out what our baseline was and what our comfort level was and just turning it upside-down.” Guys I think you’re misunderstanding his quote. I think he is agreeing with the Navy Seal guy... 1 Quote Link to comment

But I thought he was saying the same thing from the other point of view. If you let your mind listen to your body and quit when you think you can't do any more, you're shorting yourself. You have to make your mind tell your body to keep going. Yup. This. Quote Link to comment

theknife Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Great interview! Off topic, but in the example of Chris Walker, are they saying he switched to d-line or was that just a hypothetical? Quote Link to comment

The metrics can help with such decisions before position coaches and head coach Scott Frost make a final decision with the player. “He cannot hold the mass you’re talking about on the O-line unless we start giving him massive amounts of fat allowance. Fat doesn’t speed you up and it’s harder to slow down, right? It’s not an engine, it’s just adding mass to the car, which your engine has to work harder to move,” Duval said. “That’s Chris in a nutshell.” 2 Quote Link to comment

Not only being more scientific in terms of evaluation but shows the body composition of the players going-forward. You need guys carrying good, productive weight if they are to go fast and full-bore for a 100-play game. Edited March 25, 2018 by Danimal Quote Link to comment

Never really thought of the max "muscle potential vs body weight" concept. Guys can get bigger, but as Duval said, it's fat weight which is slow to start and slow to stop. IMHO, explains how we have "big" OL, but they seemed to get pushed around so much. Quote Link to comment

Being able to explain things in an easy to understand way that makes sense to them with solid reasoning. 5 Quote Link to comment
