Monday Musings

September 16, 2019Craig Edwards Leave a comment

Happy Monday! Here are a few thoughts bouncing around in my head after a week of reading, podcasts, cruising social media and any other continuing ed. Enjoy! A simple change that I have made with all the athletes that I work with is to elevated their heels when squatting bilaterally. It gives them more ankle … Continue reading Monday Musings

Monday Musings

June 4, 2018Craig Edwards Leave a comment

I think I am going to try to start a new series here, calling it Monday Musings (obviously). Here is my thought; after a week in the weight room, listening to podcasts and reading, I'll dump a quick thought or two or three things that are going through my head. Lots of really smart people … Continue reading Monday Musings

Heels Elevated Bilateral Squatting?

January 18, 2018Craig Edwards Leave a comment

Got a lot of engagement with various coaches on Twitter with this thought the other day. Though I am not a huge proponent of excessive loading of the bilateral squat (back/front squat) I do think it’s important to be able to perform the squat pattern well as it is a basic, fundamental movement pattern. As … Continue reading Heels Elevated Bilateral Squatting?

20 Thought Provoking Gray Cook Quotes

May 22, 2017Craig Edwards Leave a comment

Recently I was skimming through Movement by Gray Cook as I typically do every once in a while with some of the better material out there. The first thing I noticed – Gray has a ton of good quotes that really make you think. And since I’m all about things that make you think a … Continue reading 20 Thought Provoking Gray Cook Quotes

Random Thoughts: April Edition

April 30, 2017Craig Edwards Leave a comment

It's a new month, so here are 10 quick and random thoughts that have been floating around my brain recently. If nothing else I hope it makes you think a little. Enjoy! 1. Most elite/above average athletes have more reactability then they do stability. For example, if you have them perform a 1-Leg Linear Hurdle Hop … Continue reading Random Thoughts: April Edition

It's a new month, so here are 10 quick and random thoughts that have been floating around my brain recently. If nothing else I hope it makes you think a little. Enjoy! 1. The trunk stability push up (TSPU) or anti-extension strength/stability is huge in female populations. There is actually some research showing that a … Continue reading Random Thoughts: March Edition

1-Leg Hang Clean?

February 5, 2017Craig Edwards Leave a comment

"The most dangerous phrase in the language is "we've always done it this way." - Grace Hopper Hockey, more specifically the skating stride, is essentially a single leg sport/movement. As a result, we tend to think 1-leg plyo's are important/beneficial. We tend to think 1-leg strength exercises are important/beneficial. So why wouldn't we think that … Continue reading 1-Leg Hang Clean?

Random Thoughts: January Edition

January 2, 2017Craig Edwards Leave a comment

1. Corrective exercise is the icing on the cake, not the actual cake. Various mobility and stability drills are great and they are needed in a lot of cases, but they aren’t as important as the big/core fundamental movements. Getting strong is still the best corrective out there. If the big/core fundamental movements you are … Continue reading Random Thoughts: January Edition
