Thank you for making my point for me. No one can make unverified scientific or medical claims. Well they can, but without even the barest modicum of scientific rigor they are nothing more than speculation. So I am being asked to believe a medical/scientific claim without any verifying data...

Wrong. Did you even read that study - it’s 10 out of 10,000 athlete exposures not 10 out of 10,000 D1 players get injured / year. Yeesh.

I’m just looking for data. I’m not dug in on anything. You’ve completely misunderstood my point of view. I’m not making any claims, other people are. I’m not saying Mario’s techniques cause injuries and I’m not saying they don’t cause injuries. I don’t have data to back up either point. You...

I don’t know man I don’t cheer for injuries. And can you tell me how many players on the average miss at least one game due to injuries overall per team? That’s a completely arbitrary number unless you can come up with what the average is in college football. So your bet makes zero sense...

Good for you was a compliment. I appreciate your background and your listing of qualifications and experience, but until I see data that shows a statistical correlation between Mario/Feld training causing injuries, until you can prove causation, it’s just an unproven theory. Someone else could...

You’re a high school coach, right? So you deal with young people each and every day. Good for you we need good leaders. I’m glad you have inside information that reveals to you what training methods and what specific sprints were run in a recent practice. I still don’t understand the...

I find that to be such a generalization that you can’t possibly confirm it as being true. It’s very possible that soccer players and football players at some point in their training do similar sprints or running drills. One thing that hasn’t changed in football is that there are running drills...

Along the same line, my thinking was it’s normal and even interesting to hear different training techniques even when there’s disagreement. I think that’s part of the business. There are probably different schools of thought in terms of football training and I’m certainly no expert. But when I...

No, it doesn’t. That’s nonsense. There are running drills in both sports.

Well, you don’t know anything about football conditioning drills, but I will entertain your opinions on soccer.

I mean, yeah, I never played soccer, but I did them for high school football. But I know it’s a different day and all that, I just want to know if there’s any real rationale to these concerns about injuries. Otherwise, why post about it? I don’t see any hard data either way so hard for me to judge.

Thank you for the balanced update @DMoney . I have a question regarding practice. Don’t know if you’re the right person to ask or if you have any insight into this, but it’s being discussed in another thread. There is apparently some information in another thread about the workouts, in which...
