  • Rodrigo Alvira: Arquetipos, Plataformas De Fuerza y VBT
    Oct 9 2025

    Rodrigo Alvira — Preparador Físico de los Detroit Pistons y Fundador de Spaniard Performance — se une a nosotros en el episodio número 119 de Move the Needle.

    En este episodio del pódcast conversamos sobre el arquetipado en el deporte, qué es lo que realmente importa al analizar los saltos en las plataformas de fuerza, y profundizamos en una conversación muy interesante sobre el entrenamiento basado en la velocidad (VBT) — un tema del que hasta ahora habíamos hablado muy poco en el programa.

    Este episodio es especial: nuestra primera publicación completamente en español. ¡Esperamos que la disfruten!

  • Rodrigo Alvira: Archetypes, Force Plates, VBT
    Oct 8 2025

    Rodrigo Alvira - Detroit Pistons Performance Coach & Founder of Spaniard Performance - joins us of the 119th episode of MTN. On this episode of the podcast we get into conversation around archetyping in sport, what really matters when looking at jump outputs on force plates, and we dive into a cool conversation around velocity based training (something that we have done very little of so far on this podcast). This episode was a special one in that we also are releasing it fully in Spanish. Check out either conversation!

  • Jared Wilson: Taking Full Control
    Oct 1 2025

    Jared Wilson - Owner/Founder of JW Performance - joins us for the 118th episode of MTN. On this episode of the podcast, we talk through some of the underappreciated parts of the private performance world, we dive into the foundational training process, and Jared fully pulls back the curtain on his time with John Wall. This was a transparent and powerful episode and we were thankful for Jared for being willing to truly dive in.
