#237 Cam Josse, Part 1-R2RR Feb 19, 2025

In this episode of the Research to Reps Roundtable, Dr. Pat Ivey, Dr. Ernie Rimer, and Dr. Ted Lambrinides sit down with Cam Josse, currently at Auburn, to discuss his experiences in strength and conditioning, particularly in college football. Cam shares insights into the challenges of ending a season without a bowl game, emphasizing the importance of reflection, maintaining a forward-thinking approach, and controlling what can be controlled. He discusses how his role, though not as a director, allows him to engage deeply in evaluating Auburn’s 2024 season and strategizing for 2025. The conversation highlights the emotional aspect of missing a bowl game but stresses the necessity of focusing on progress rather than dwelling on setbacks.

The discussion then shifts to force-velocity profiling and its application in training athletes for optimal performance. Cam explains how different athletes exhibit varying force and velocity traits, influencing their sprinting and overall performance. He and the hosts explore how training should be individualized based on an athlete’s position, body composition, and specific needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. They also touch on the complexity of sports science, emphasizing the need for practical decision-making and clear communication between strength coaches and head coaches. The importance of balancing physical training with mental and tactical aspects of the game is a recurring theme, with the group highlighting the risks of over-intervening and how strategic planning plays a key role in maximizing athlete development.

#199- Dr. Craig Turner-R2RR Jul 05, 2023

The most under-managed and overlooked factor in collegiate sport performance (and probably optimal human performance if we're being honest): SLEEP. Dr. Craig Turner has made a career in sport science by focusing on sleep - how much do athletes need versus what is optimal? How can we best measure it and use that data? So much unknown about sleep, but we explore some of it in this episode of the Research 2 Reps Roundtable.

Thanks to our podcast sponsors Sorinex and EliteForm for making this episode possible.

#198 Luke Day- BSAR Jun 21, 2023

This Beyond Sets & Reps episode with Luke Day ended up being too good of a conversation to limit it to ~30 minutes so we've got a 2-parter for you! In part I Coach Day sets the stage for where he's at now and he doesn't hold any punches when it comes to talking about his highs and his lows. Listen now and then be on the lookout for part II where he takes his experience one step further!

#197 Jennifer Gibson-R2RR Jun 07, 2023

Spanning coaching and consulting in combat sports, sport science and nutrition, Jennifer Gibson has 18 years in Athletic Performance and while that's easy to say in one sentence, it's MUCH more difficult to sum up her experiences in one podcast episode... but we tried. In this episode of the Research 2 Reps Roundtable our conversation makes it clear why she's one of the best in the field and continues working with elite athletes to reach the top of their game.

Big shoutout to our podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, for making these episodes possible!

#196 Zac Woodfin-BSAR May 17, 2023

USFL Director of Player Performance, Coach Zac Woodfin, is our guest this week on the Beyond Sets & Reps podcast. Not only do our career paths have a lot more in common than we initially realized, but he started speaking my language when he began discussing the relationships he prided himself on developing. So much so that while he was the Director of Strength & Conditioning, the University President asked him to serve as the interim Athletic Director at University of Southern Mississippi. Relationships got him there! You can't miss this episode.

Shoutout to our podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, who make these episodes possible!

#195 Katie Nichols- R2RR May 03, 2023

Dr. Katie Nichols, Director of Mental Performance begins our Research 2 Reps Roundtable conversation by defining what mental performance actually is - essentially it's having the skills to put yourself in a position to be successful. Notice she didn't equate it to mental toughness! I know that's enough to have you intrigued, so go ahead and press play on this episode.

Big thanks to our podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, who make these episodes possible!

#194 Melissa Crownson-BSAR Apr 19, 2023

"My body loves kale, my soul loves fried chicken" - our guest this week, Melissa Crowson, Dietician and Nutritionist. If that doesn't sum up our conversation, I don't know what will.

Big thanks to our podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, for making these episodes possible.

#193-Dr. Brittany Collins-R2RR Apr 05, 2023

The 'sport science' of mental health - while we typically think of sport science and the nerdy sport stuff, we often forget that how our brain works is most definitely science! Our athletes' brains run the show and this conversation with Dr. Brittany Collins examines the intersection of sport, sport science, mental health and social science. To say it was a high level conversation doesn't do it justice.

Special thanks to our podcast sponsors, Sorinex and EliteForm, for making these episodes possible.

#192 Chris Crumpler-BSAR Mar 22, 2023

Chris Crumpler AKA Coach Crump brings the fire this week with his motto: "I don't make excuses, I make adjustments!" BOOM.

And a very unique aspect of this specific episode is that she ended up running the show and asking us more questions than we asked her!

Big thanks to Sorinex and EliteForm for making our podcast episodes possible.

#190- Derek Copeland, BSAR Feb 15, 2023

University of Louisville Rowing Coach, Derek Copeland, had a unique childhood and early experience with sport that makes him a unique coach, to say the least.

#189- Sam Moore- R2RR Jan 25, 2023

If you work with female athletes in any aspect, or have a female athlete child or relative, you need to listen to this episode of Research 2 Reps Roundtable. Soon-to-be-Doctor Samantha Moore was not only the NCAAs first female Director of Sport Science, but she's a budding researcher in female athlete physiology and performance. In addition to the research she's doing, because of her background, she has the actual ability to translate the information in a way that's impactful and that coaches and athletes can actually use!

Big thanks to our podcast sponsors Sorinex and EliteForm for making these episodes possible.

#188- Gary Pinkel BSAR Jan 11, 2023

Originally aired in August of 2019, it only seemed fitting to repost this Beyond Sets and Reps episode with now-Hall of Fame Coach Gary Pinkel.
