[Supertraining] NFL and College programs using HIT

Well, and people from certain pro teams in Denver used to sneak off to Mel's house to get better training too...<grin>. You'd be surprised how many people are NOT following what their coaches give them for strength programs or training protocols, after all, their careers depend on this! I met some of those athletes and I can say that Mel worked them very hard and trained them for strength!

The official "story" from a team may not truly cover what the athletes are doing. The coach on the field is more interested in performance rather than compliance with an official story lol...and if they're really getting success from something, it's more likely they'd NOT put out a story for the media....any true edge is under the cover!

***************************
A second thought on the HIT comment towards athletics... Why is it
that over a dozen NFL teams and D1 college programs are still using
it provided it is such a fallacy as described in this forum?
***************************

The fact that some NFL teams and D1 programs use HIT is not evidence
that single sets are just as effective as multiple sets. In fact,
the number of teams using any type of training system is irrelevant.
A training program's popularity is not, by itself, evidence of its
effectiveness. To claim otherwise is to commit the argumentum ad
populum (appeal to popularity) fallacy.
