He has it correct. Many people are missing out by learning from other men who are so far off it's not even close.

@SadegoGG thats why you learn how to jump

Studies show that plyometrics increases risk of injury especially in the joints, and typically they are taught incorrectly. Jumping up and down over and over again is absolutely terrible for an athlete's health and won't even help to begin with. I have seen athletes performing his training, and it sucks. He focuses more on the bench press than he does important movements that emphasize redirection of force (Plyometrics are a dangerous way to train this) and force production.

So you are saying that you want there to be more full body exercises, but not plyos. Isn't a plyo a full body exercise for the most part? A body weight exercise?  Which children can do no matter how old they are? Children grow up doing bodyweight exercises in their free play. I'm confused on your logic. Also, i'm sure this is only a small portion of what he does.

First of all tell me why athletes of all sports should workout in the same way.

Also, why should amateur athletes be doing plyometrics? BTW, real plyos are done in 2-3 reps and still shouldn't be done by amateurs.

Why should an entire program be based on conditioning, when conditioning is only a small aspect of training.

Also, why are there so few multijoint movements and full body exercises?

Think about some of those BASIC aspects of training, which Jay fails to understand.
