Almost every person that goes to the gym thinks that they are athletic, this is just not the case.
Going to the gym running on a treadmill does not equal total fitness neither does having a big bench press.
So many people are under the impression that the gym will make the total athlete. WRONG!
The way you become the total athlete is to train to be an athlete, want to be strong train with heavy resistance.
If a sprinter trains for long distance his speed will not improve, he has to work sprints.
So many people train to slow, thinking slower is better. In some case this may be true, however if you train slow you will become slow, if you want to be fast train for speed, want to become explosive train explosive.
Every sport has some kind of explosive movement whether you sprinting in football, swing a baseball bat, jumping on the basketball court all require explosive training.
Almost all movements done on a daily basis are some kind of explosive movement.
People don't bend over slow for a 10 count, they bend fast, and usually will hurt their back from this simple movement.
Bodyweight training is all you need to become physically fit in record time.
Bodyweight training works the body from different angles and will work the whole body in less time.
So before you train slow all the time, think do you want to be slow or fast?
