Generally speaking, concentric work will push your breathing harder, eccentric work will allow a fast pace without breathing hard. Learning to combine the two is the art of effective interval training. I can't really explain it, but when the muscle stiffness is optimal, you get more eccentric work giving more efficiency, and when muscle stiffness is too low you have to work harder. When it is too high, your muscles tie up.
I think i see where you are coming from now. The closer we get to optimal tone in the muscles the closer we get to optimal mechanical efficiency?
shipsy,
In addition to optimal mechanical efficiency there would seem to be at least one more variable. Something like optimal mechanical efficiency when moving your leg at X speed. Is that right fizzyology?

I tried to make that sentence, situational free. If we take it into any situation the specifics of that situation would determine the specifics of our response to it. The speed variable would be part of this 'situationally specific' factor wouldn't it?
Yes. There are lots of other important variables besides biomechanics though.

Yep, but you have a sense of balance in this inner view you have going on, which is always fascinating.
What do you think about this?
I'd like a distinction between biomechanics as a scientific field and some other words like human mechanics or structural mechanics for the real 4D world version of it.
No, but if she had, I would be world class.

I may as well try and give you a proper reply. I think Antonio thought we need to defend Noakes for some reason, like we have a stake in his game. From my perspective i just like the CG theory because it is an advancement on the cutting edge thinking from one side of the looking glass. I disagree with him on his more general opinion of Cerutty. I also disagree with him on his view of modern versus classical coaching. I happen to think he doesn't quite know the extent of what he has found yet, but the surface is well and truly scratched now.
I think what i am saying is that Antonio should stop attacking the 'man' and focus on the 'ball'. If he did then he might see it's isn't a question of whether Noakes himself is right or wrong, it becomes a question of whether each individual opinion of Noakes is agreeable or not with our own views.
No scholarship limits anymore! (NCAA Track and Field inequality is going to get way worse, right?)
