I wasn't seeing that from Docherty this season, as when he went on long sprints he too often looked all arms and legs, especially when running forward. Maybe it's age, maybe it's the knee, maybe it's the physical toll of the chemo catching up with him when he really pushes his body, but it just wasn't there.
Reduce the strength training, maybe a slight caloric reduction, but the training focus has to become about a more economical running technique when he needs to track to positions on the ground rather than his technique for ballistic sprints. I agree, he is too big to be a running defender, and I'd still want a mobility shift from him if he went into the middle. Suspect that while he might look lean, there might be some central adiposity that's proving tough to move.
I'm sorry, but I completely disagree with this.
Only thing I don't like about Cahill is how his name is pronounced. Commentators say (presumably on his confirmation) that is name is effectively "Carl" - it's "Cay-hill".
Wow...I was wondering who 'Carl' was when watching the game. Thanks for clearing this up.
Marc Murphy advises Paddy Dow to seek another club- I like it
Ex-skipper urges ‘dominant’ former teammate to save ‘stalled career’ with trade
A top draft pick left in the VFL by Michael Voss could be snapped up on a low-risk, high-reward deal.
agreed but correct me if i'm wrong but isn't it sort of a bad look for a club champ that only retired 12 months ago to publicly urge on a currently contracted player to request a trade elsewhere?
It's an Irish name. Multiple pronunciations: Karl, Kahl, Kayl, Kar-hill, Kay-hill. In Australia tend to hear the "Karl" version, such as with the Cahill Expressway in Sydney. "Kay-hill" is more American, "Kar-hill" British. But you'll find all versions everywhere (e.g. Tim Kay-hill). Common Irish version is sort of like a "Kairhhl" sound.
It's never been as simple as calories in, calories out. Human metabolism is about a lot more than the energy exchange from breaking apart compounds. An endocrine-based model tends to make more sense, but it's also not something that you can write down on a postage stamp to hand to someone to implement.
Correct, but I'm referring to him specifically, though I did not specify in writing. He is too currently too big (or too imbalanced) to play in a more mobile fashion. He's unlikely to magically become a better endurance athlete any time soon without making changes.
Visceral fat. Newman is not a particularly good endurance runner by the way, and having visible fat stores isn't much of indication of aerobic fitness, especially given that's what you'd be burning through during an endurance event.
I think you're forgetting how much Hodge slimmed down in the second half of his career. He got plenty lean.
I appreciate your effort in trying to explain what you were trying to say but I couldn’t read beyond your first paragraph.
He's working on abc radio and is very good, considered in his opinions and still bleeds blue (-was talking about how gutted he was this week as a carlton supporter).
The human body is a very efficient thing, but it is not perfectly efficient, nor is it perfectly mechanically efficient. It is not as simple as calories in, calories out. Thermodynamics applies, but calorie estimates for foods do not wholly explain what the organisms involved seek from food.
yes but shouldn't murph also channel some of that energy into encouraging dowy to become a better, more complete footballer and take his oppurtunites that he's given at the club he is contracted to and was drafted no.3 overall...
Body composition is not entirely about calories in and calories out but body weight certainly is. It's very, VERY basic nutritional science and your failure to understand that coupled with the aggression in your post is evidence enough to me that you do not know what you are talking about.
Ability to score from turn overs remains our biggest weakness. I think this is a sensible perspective. It may also be related to wings. Turn over in front half has improved but was inconsistent this year too.
Aggressive? You flippantly ignored 90% of my post.
Key word here is 'struggle'. I did not write 'impossible'. You will see variance.
Jim, it’s best we drop this. I am not going to agree with anything you have to say on this topic. Happy to enter other discussions with you but I disagree with you on this about as strongly as I possibly could.
I agree with you 100% Palle_blu except the club pushing the agenda. Although not outside the realms of possibility, I believe they would first talk to Dow direct rather than starting rumours in the media.
I strongly encourage you to enquire about this with the related club professionals and their academic and industry circles. There is a knowledge gap that exists amongst practitioners today, and you're showing it here.
Not really. As a paid member of the media he was asked "what do you see as the future for Paddy Dow"?
Let it go Frumpmeister. It makes you sound like "soury".
The bolded is not true. Some people may have higher or lower metabolic bases that mean they need to eat more or less than they 'think' they need to. But there is not a person alive who struggles to put on weight who simply isn't eating enough.
