Vertical Jump Interview with Shawn Myszka

I was recently fortunate enough to do a phone interview with Shawn Myszka from Explosive Edge Athletics. When you listen to the interview you will quickly see that he is incredibly knowledgeable on the subject of vertical jump training. It goes for about 20 minutes and is full of great information.

To get an idea of why Shawn knows so much about the topic here is his bio:
Currently the Co-Founder/Athletic Performance Director of Explosive Edge Athletics in Minneapolis, MN. Highly sought-after jump clinician whom is presently founding the Plyometrics Special Interest Group and has presents extensively on topics of Plyometrics/Jump Training at dozens of clinics nationwide each year; quickly becoming a leader in the field of plyometrics and jump training throughout the industry.

Formerly worked on the Strength & Conditioning staff with the Chicago Bears in 2003. Former National-level bodybuilder who was trained by 6-time Mr. Olympia Dorian Yates. Currently trains many of the top athletes in the state of MN on all levels (HS, college, and professional) and serves as a consultant to many of the state's top athletic programs. Member of the Minnesota NSCA Advisory Board. Voted the 2008 Minnesota NSCA Personal Trainer of the Year

Also in the call we discussed an adaptogen for aiding in recovery called moomiyo. As promised here is the link if you want to know a bit more about it: Ascential Moomiyo

If you enjoyed the call and would like to hear more from Shawn feel free to email your questions via the Contact Us Page and I will be sure to ask him next time we do another one.

PS If I sound a little out of it it is most likely due to the time difference. I was talking to Shawn at midnight my time (9AM his time). Luckily it is Shawn who you want to listen to and he was pretty energetic. His passion for the subject is clearly evident (as his knowledge).
