Description
Practical Application of the Stretch Shortening Cycle is one of the few resources to explain what the stretch shortening cycle (SSC) is and connects the dots between what this cycle does and how it can be leveraged to help athletes gain a competitive edge. You’ll learn the three components of the SSC, how it occurs, and how to implement it in training regimens via post-activation potentiation (PAP), post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE), and the French contrast method (FCM).
