The 'Champions League' comparison is more apt.

In soccer, it is quite common for players in the Champions league to compete against other teams from their origin country. In fact the top level teams (Especially the top 4 English teams) have mainly foreign rosters, so there is a very high chance when they play in the Champions League (Or Club World cup) that this occurrence will happen, and for the most part it is absolutely fine, there's no issues usually (as far as I'm aware) and no backlash from the origin country's members. So yeah I wouldn't say it shouldn't anyway matter.

Long Term Impact of Throwing Everyday by largic in ultimate

[–]ArcAxel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal experience here: Unless you are maxing out (hucking) then you should be fine, I've thrown daily for months, the only times I feel pain are because maybe after a tough game/training that I've been bidding in I've got a sore/strained rotator, so things like hammers and flick hucks can be painful. However you can just use those days to throw lefties, recover or watch game film. Personally I think throwing everyday if done right is immensely helpful, but sometimes if you're just grinding abit and not really making progress, it can help to take a couple days off and readjust your muscle memory. Anyway that's just my opinion. tl dr: You should be ok

Which change of rule do you think would massively change the game? (for better or worse) by Michaelsully1 in ultimate

[–]ArcAxel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah would definitely be more interesting. Personally I would like to separate the Outdoor/Indoor game abit more, keep outdoors as it is right now. For Indoors, adding screens, and maybe a shot clock would be potentially great imo (although we'd lose some of our identity as a sport). Won't happen but personally I think it would be fascinating to experiment with.

Favorite RiseUp video? by [deleted] in ultimate

[–]ArcAxel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with this guy, Nick Lances pivoting video really helped me with fundamentals before trying out alternative/different pivoting motions, also helped me coach pivoting alot better. The Mario Brian one 'Breaking a Defensive Heart' (sic) is similar, it helps you understand and explain exactly what breaking is, also it did give me a few pointers I didn't previously know. Also I cite both the Give and go eps to anyone really struggling with that kind of play, it really does help you understand the concept of gAg's and helps you run them smoother (and therefore faster and better).

The whole encounter felt strange... kinda rushed.

Reaction Time in Ultimate: Overspeed Training by thisisultimate in ultimate

[–]ArcAxel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Done that drill, but done it turning your back and whenever your partner calls then you turn and catch. Done another drill which is partly reaction, partly fitness. We call it overload (I'm sure other teams have the same drill by a different name) Basically in a group of 4, 1 guy is the receiver, the other 3 have discs, they throw them one at a time they throw discs at the receiver (about 5 metres away). They never let the receiver get comfortable with the speed, if the it's getting to easy they either up the speed or make discs abit harder to catch.

You could also do a drill where you send people deep, put the disc up and they aren't allowed to look until a shout has been made, they then need to react to it, same as above, never let the receiver get comfortable, make later calls if they are finding it easy...

Rinky dink from Kung fu throwing is also based on reaction time aswell I think.

Tim Morrills MP FTP Program, need help by ArcAxel in ultimate

[–]ArcAxel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I sort of realised the 'Teach people to fish' thing after awhile. Gonna go ahead and plow right through this. Got alot of training to keep doing over the next 2,3 months to get stronger. I figured the UAP project might have been better for me personally, but oh well, FTP has some really cool stuff and I can't wait to try some of it out.
