Learn
from the source the theories and methods that have
influenced and shaped the world of physical preparation,
from the worlds most influential innovator of physical
preparation during the last decade.
In the
late 1990's and early 2000's Ian released many of his
time-tested and proven experienced based original
theories and methods in articles, books and DVDS, the
content of which rippled throughout the training world.
For the most part they met with the usual human response
- those whose values, beliefs, investments and or egos
were threatened were highly critical (some even stormed
out of his seminars in outrage!). Ian and his supporters
received threats and vilification for his 'heretical'
theories and methods.
Then as the methods become accepted these 'gate-keepers'
of the truth chose to teach Ian's methods, for the most
part in the absence of credit or permission.
Now more people around the world training for sport,
occupation, recreation or therapy reasons would be using
Ian's theories and methods of training than any other
single persons in the world.
His theories and methods are literally the most copied
in the world of physical preparation, albeit more times
than not in the absence of recognition of the origin.
Now you have a chance to meet with and learn in person
from the person who has been the most influential
individual in the world of physical training during the
last decades as Ian shares the lessons he has learnt
during his 30 years in the industry. Ian's innovations
in training have shaped the world of physical training
in every aspect and country around the world. Chances
are something you are doing in your physical training
has been influenced by Ian King. With 30 years in the
industry Ian has been possibly the most influential, the
most copied innovator in the world of physical
preparation. Now you can learn from the source! There is
no need to learn from the diluted imitations! Go to the
source! Meet Ian in person and gain direct insights into
the ways and reasons for his training ideas.
Here are some of the original Ian King theory and
methods that you will be exposed to in the Legacy
seminar, taught from the source:
Sayings such as
- people over-react in the short term and under-react in
the long term
- time magnifies errors in training
- dont break the rules until you know the rules
- only results matter
Philosophies such as
- athletic success is not measured in the gym - Do the
least amount needed to get the most results
- Develop the athlete then the player
- look at the bigger picture
Concepts such as:
- prioritization through volume, sequence and load
- that which is done first in the training week and
workout gets done best
- every single training method will have a negative
effect - and must be countered.
- The specificity continuum
Principles such as:
- Opposite and equal effect
- Optimal vs. capable
- Transfer vs. specificity
- Contrarian
Flexibility training concepts, theories and
methods such as:
- Static stretching is the most effective method for
improving flexibility
- Static stretching before training is recommended,
contrary to the propaganda pushed earlier in this decade
- Flexibility is the most important physical quality
- Strength training exercises do not in themselves
create flexibility they are more likely to reduce
flexibility
Strength training concepts, theories and
methods such as:
- Categorizing the body and exercises into planes of
movement (vertical and horizontal pulling and pushing,
quad and hip dominant) rather than muscle groups
- Creating family trees of exercise and how to build
progressions within the family tree
- Tempo and the three digit speed timing method
- Athletes should not use external loading before they
have mastered their own bodyweight and in some cases
athletes are not even able to manage their own
bodyweight
Speed training concepts, theories and methods
such as:
- The reverse periodization of speed method, going from
power to capacity not the opposite
- Power based running sport athletes performing high
volume of sprinting are not doing speed training, rather
endurance training
- Strength training and speed are highly correlated
provided the strength training methods do not decrease
the stretch-shortening cycle ability
- Stretch shortening capacity of the athlete will help
determine their training needs in a sport requiring that
capacity
Endurance training concepts, theories and
methods such as:
- The endurance base is a myth not a science
- Cross training is ineffective
- Endurance training needs to raise in specificity in
correlation with the level of qualification of the
athlete
- Developing endurance with the intent of transferring
it to speed is not the sound principle that
traditionalists have been promoting for decades
And ALSO learn the theories and methods he has
developed over the last few years which WILL shape the
world of training in the coming decade! When you learn
them from the source the value will always be greater
than learning a second hand diluted version.
