Rob Oshinskie on Single-Leg Training, Deceleration and Sports Performance

Rob Oshinskie is the owner of Victory Sport and Fitness in State College, Pennsylvania. I was originally put on to Rob’s work via our mutual friend and awesome human being Lee Taft, so when Lee gave me the seal of approval I knew I had to get Rob on.

In this show, Rob and I talk about why he’s such a big proponent of single-leg training, his approach and philosophy on force absorption and deceleration, and what really disturbs him about young athlete development.

It takes us a few minutes to get rolling, but I promise the content in this show is gold.
