Elite brakes = Elite performance. Just ask lukadoncic Simple progression: 🗓️ Weeks 1 to 2: 2 sets per exercise, own positions 🗓️ Weeks 3 to 4: add 1 rep per set, or add 1 session per week 🗓️ Weeks 5 to 6: add light load on step downs, keep tempo strict Then cycle it back down and repeat. How to build better eccentric control without wrecking your lifting progress Think minimal effective dose. Two principles: 🧠 Expose the tissue and nervous system to braking, consistently ⚖️ Keep volume low and quality high, so it supports strength and speed instead of stealing recovery Use one of these methods per session, not all of them: ⏱️ Slow eccentrics on strength lifts 🧱 Yielding isometrics in sport positions 🛑 Low volume decel drills that teach you to stick and own positions #LukaDoncic #SportsScience #AthleteDevelopment #Deceleration #offensiveline
