Episode 16: Season 4 Episode 15- Keir Wenham-Flatt- “What is the stuff that makes you a really good coach that builds your career” Dec 19, 2023

Today I’m really excited to welcome “Mr. Rugby Strength Coach” Keir Wenham-Flatt back to The Podcast, and discuss a different topic with Keir, and that is ways coaches can do better for themselves with secondary forms of income. This is something that, if you’ve ever heard me get on my soap box about, I’m very passionate about, and really feel that we all, me included, need to take a much deeper look at. Throughout the 30-minute discussion “The Rugby Guy” and I get into:

1) The factors that drove him through the steps leading him to each step of his “side hustle” journey.

2) Why there are things that can help coaches improve may not help drive careers forward

3) How having a secondary income stream can help improve your freedom to make better decisions in and out of work.

4) Persuasion vs coercion, how they work hand in hand if you don’t have a backup plan.

5) Escape velocity numbers, what that means, and how it fits with coaches and side hustles.

6) Skills learned from being in business that transferred into coaching.

7) What is Money Moves and why should coaches care?

This topic is one that I really think needs to be talked about exponentially more than it is, and one that I’ve tried to push for more coaches to share how they’re finding alternative ways to make some cash to better themselves. To me, it doesn’t matter if it’s finding a second job, starting an online business, or getting into real estate, as long as you are finding a way to better yourself in the long run I think that is absolutely huge. If you have interest in checking out K’s sight for more info on Money Moves or to sign up hop over to www.callmekeir.com/squeeze. I think that this could be a great avenue for many coaches out there to help find ways to scale what they do and make a little extra cash on the side. Keir is one of the few people I talk to when it comes to ways I can be better online, so I was really excited to get him back on The Podcast to talk about this topic. I hope you enjoyed the banter as much as I did, and if you did, please share the show with a colleague that you think could find some value in it. Also, if you haven’t subscribed and left a review on your favorite podcast player and could do so I would truly appreciate the support!

Jonathan was a Division I strength and conditioning coach who has made a professional pivot into real estate and provides some great insight into how the coaching world has transferred to the “real world”. Throughout the 30 minutes plus conversation, Jonathan and I get into:

1) A voyage that led him to choose another vocation

2) Skills that coaches develop that have “transfer” to the real world

3) Where who you are and who the staff/admin you work with may have a different view of what that should be.

4) The value of asking “what do you want me to accomplish?”

5) Aspects of coaching that provided issues in his family life, thus driving the decision to change professions

6) What drove him to his latest professional venture.

7) How coaches should practice what they preach about embracing change when they get to a point where they need to make a change.

I really can’t thank Jonathan enough for sharing so much of his voyage in and out of the coaching world. It’s a transition that isn’t easy on anyone, but we all should always happy to see someone find a better way for themselves, in and out of coaching. His path hasn’t been an easy one for sure, but one that I hope helps others have a better understanding of where they are in their voyage, and maybe take a deep breath and assess where they are in theirs.

For those whose seasons have come to an end we are, at times, in a rush to get back to training and really crank it up, but that isn’t always what’s best.

Episode 6: Season 2- The 2022 Seminar Series- Episode 6- Boo Schexnayder- Every Problem is a Biomechanical Jigsaw Problem Mar 30, 2022

“I tell young coaches and young trainers all the time, just because you have the title of strength coach at this school or the title of trainer at this school that really doesn’t mean anything, it means absolutely nothing other than the paycheck.”

“Ultimately, if the kids come to you and the athletes come to you and you help them and you come up with answers for them they’re going to keep coming to you.”

I got the opportunity to chop it up with Boo Schexnayder in this week’s episode of The Podcast. Throughout the 35-minute chat we talk about:

1) What coaching is, and where he sees the role of “problems” in coaching.

2) What the coach’s role in injuries actually is.

3) The importance of drawing knowledge from multiple fields

4) Some of the unique challenges to the educational progressions of coaches

5) What he truly loves about sports

6) What really drives buy-in and brings athlete’s back to a coach.

7) How cultural norms hold us back from being elite

8) The effects of commercially driven trends and fads

9) Why some means and methods have stood the test of time

Episode 5: Season 2- The 2022 Seminar Series- Episode 5- Zach Dechant- The Best Athletes in The World Are the Best Compensators Mar 28, 2022

“If you have the outputs you can have compensations and breakdowns in your technique. If you don’t have the output and you don’t have the ability to be a freak athlete then you better move really, really well and create impulse at the right time.”

In this week’s episode of The Podcast I got to catch up with Zach Dechant. Throughout the 35-minute chat we talk about:

1) Zach’s new role at TCU and where he sees that progressing forward.

2) Some new things that he’s implementing with his baseball players revolving around resisted sprinting.

3) Metrics that he uses to evaluate his players, and what the data is showing him.

4) The roles and symbiotic nature of general and specific strengths.

Episode 4: Season 2- The 2022 Seminar Series- Episode 4- Mike Guadango- Sport Mastery and Physical Health Don’t Go Hand in Hand.” Mar 22, 2022

“What am I going to do for this kid? Because he doesn’t even know what makes him good. Genuinely, we can say we do, we have no idea what makes these people good.”

In today’s episode of The Podcast I sit down and chat with Freak Strength’s Mike Guadango. During the 32-minute chat we talk about:

1) The crazy world of being a “sport specialist” and the ebbs and flows of it that he’s lived through.

2) The role asymmetries in sport, and why coaches may not want to “correct” some.

3) A unique method to build “work capacity” in rehab that has helped his athletes improve at a greater rate.

4) The role of psychology in high level sport and the mental gaps between the good and the elite.

5) The misconceived connection between aesthetics and performance.

6) Understanding that the outliers do things differently because they’re outliers, and maybe “correcting” those “mistakes” is not what’s best for their performance.

Episode 3: Season 2- The 2022 Seminar Series- Episode 3- Henk Kraaijehnof- Plans can only be perfect in retrospect Mar 11, 2022

“You always figure things out when it’s too late. This is the problem of human nature. You figure out you’re on the wrong track when your athletes are not performing well, but that mistake has been made three months before when you didn’t see it, when you though “hey this is going great, I’m such a good coach.” Then they fail miserably, and then that mistake has been made before so always try to plan ahead.”

Always great to get to catch up with my good friend Henk Kraaijehnof in this episode of The Podcast. Throughout the 38-minute chat we talk about:

1) Henk’s new roles in the world of coaching, and how some things have come full circle.

2) How a new location has allowed Henk to “do Henk things” with exploring and researching.

3) How hindsight is always 20/20, so identifying “mistakes” in training may be more difficult then we tend to believe.

4) Trends that could be holding coaches back, and how we can all filter who we are learning from and what we are looking at

5) The importance of being your biggest critic

6) Humility, and understanding that what may be great today may not lead to success tomorrow.

“As cool as our job is and as much as we all love training, and making them better and watching them do their thing. At the end of it, what are we actually leaving them with and what are we helping them do?”

We are joined this week by South Carolina Women’s Basketball Sport Performance Coach and my Free-VASPS co-host, Molly Benetti for this episode of The Podcast. Throughout the 40-minute discussion we dive into:

How COVID has continued to impact the preseason preparation strategies
The pros and cons of having a veteran led team
The role and importance of feedback from the athlete’s and staff

Episode 1: Season 2- The 2022 Seminar Series- Episode 1- Jeff Moyer- It’s the difficult cases that make me want to dig deeper Mar 01, 2022

“None of this strength and conditioning shit matters if we can’t get our athletes to understand what we’re asking them to do, or if they don’t understand how it applies. If they don’t get it, it doesn’t matter.”

Welcome back to The Podcast. If I was going to bring this thing back it had to be Jeff Moyer batting leadoff. In this 40-minute talk, Jeff and I talk about:

1) The new and unique rabbit holes that the pandemic has allowed Jeff to dive down

2) What were the driving factors behind him digging deep into neurology, and what this research has impacted in his evaluations and programming?

3) How his personal experiences growing up have been a guiding light in pushing him to find better answers.

4) How “comfort zones” don’t’ just limit athlete’s, but coaches as well.

5) The importance of a mentor, and why young coaches need to reach out to people as early as possible to learn from them

6) The importance of his presentation being applicable the Monday after The Pittsburgh Seminar and what to expect from his presentation.

Episode 553: My Thoughts Monday #189- Jay DeMayo- Finance Books That Have Helped Me Ask More Questions May 31, 2021

“It’s not going to be what changes how you do things, what it is it’s going to change your perceptive and start to get you to look at things a little differently and want to dive down different rabbit holes.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance. Vald’s constant drive to help coaches find better information to drive more educated directions is second to none. Check out this weeks Metric Minute and make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.com
Following up on last weeks My Thoughts Monday’s discussion on podcasts that I listen to in reference to personal finance, this week I share three books that have helped me dig into the subject. These three books have all driven me to ask different questions to help with the directions I’ve gone when it comes to ways to help the compensation packages we receive do better for us over time. The topic of personal finance has gone from something I”ve been afraid to talk about to now one of my favorite topics of discussion, and a lot of that is because of these three books. Would love to hear from you if you have any other references you recommend to others that have helped drive you into different ways to help your money do better for you.

This pandemic has impacted many conversations that we have had with our fellow coaches. One change in conversation topic has been about how we can do better for ourselves. That could be through investing, side gigs, and so many other ideas. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I want to share with y’all three shows that have been really helpful for me when it comes to asking better questions about what I’m doing with my finances. On top of that, they’re fun shows to listen to, in my opinion, but each have helped me ask dig deeper into what I’m doing. I’d love to hear if there’s any shows you all have found useful as well!

This week I got the pleasure of catching up with Daniel Marshall to discuss the on boarding process with new athletes. After a brief run down of how he got to ASU he dives right into his initial onboarding evaluations, including the what’s and why’s behind the evaluations, moments he observes, and metrics he looks at. He then shares with us how these impact their training and how understanding the psychological aspect of who the athlete is can help drive training decisions and improve buy in. Marsh then dives into the role of strengths and weaknesses in athletes, and where those can drive training for athletes. We finish off talking about a different topic, cooking, and how that was almost a different career path for Daniel.

Recently I had the opportunity to talk eastern medicine with Mike Guadango. After a intro how Mike got into training, we dive right into where the idea of acupuncture came from. This leads us down the rabbit hole of what acupuncture has taught him about what we, as coaches, can do better. Many of these issues revolve around our need to prove our worth, driving us to push athletes further then may be required for elite performance. These lessons stem from his time working with elite and pro athlete’s and seeing how doing work with them to feel better was more impactful for performance then any key performance indicators we tie to training. We finish off discussing the role of teaching skills in training, and where we may or may not truly make an impact. Make sure you check out the Mike and Brooker show:

This week I had the opportunity to discuss the development of a long term athletic development model with Rick Franzblau. After a quick run down of how he got down to Clemson we discuss how longevity in one location has helped us each develop the thoughts and processes that we are trying to continue to build upon at our institutions. He then shares with us how the model that he’s working on at Clemson got started, includes what was the driving factor behind the evolutions to this model. He then shares with us a pretty in-depth breakdown of their progressions in their model, where there are some places where they individualize the program, and how different teams move at different paces. He also runs down the rabbit hole of technology, the pros and con’s of it, and the importance of the strength coach understanding what the metrics mean and how to impact them. Rick has developed an ever evolving but scaleable LTAD program, and gives some really great insight into each aspect of it that can really help each of us reflect a bit on what we are doing and possible ways to improve how we evaluate what we are doing.

Episode 545: My Thoughts Monday #183- Jay DeMayo- Been A While, So Let’s Really Be Ready Apr 19, 2021

“How more excited will I be after an even longer break, and getting away and finding a place to hide here before we really get back to it in the summer?”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance. Vald’s constant drive to help coaches find better information to drive more educated directions is second to none. Check out this weeks Metric Minute and make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.com
The past thirteen months have been hard. The stress we have all been under has been really trying, but we are now getting to go back at it and enter an off season. This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a reflection of the past year and how a FaceTime made me take a step back and think about where I am personally. I don’t know about you, but all of this has pushed me to my edge of sanity a few times. As tired as I am and how stressful this all was, I’m still super excited to get back at it. With that in mind, how much better can I be for the athletes if I find a way to recover a bit? That’s why I’m taking a vacation and trying to find a way to decompress, and am hoping you can too.

We are joined this week by Dr. Christine Na to talk weight lifting and returning from injury. After a quick intro we get into how, like many coaches, an injury that she experienced impacted her education path. Having herself be a test subject was a great learning experience that truly drove her to passion of passing this on. This complete reevaluation of how she was moving, and deeper dive into how to get her issues “corrected” so she could continue to progress as a weight lifter. She gives us a brief overview of what she looks for when she evaluates athletes, and how individuality in how we move is so vital.

Episode 542: My Thoughts Monday #182- Jay DeMayo- How The Past Year Is Impacting Our Programming Apr 12, 2021

“We’re all in such a rush to do the cool, fun, neat things, but like we were all talking about during the initial stages of the pandemic, are they going to be prepared enough to handle that stress?”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance. Vald’s constant drive to help coaches find better information to drive more educated directions is second to none. Check out this weeks Metric Minute and make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.com
Thirteen months ago we all go shut down as the pandemic stopped the world. We then ran to zoom for multiple learning experiences to help us all grow and do better for our athlete’s as we started to return back to sport. Everyone was petrified about what could happen to the athletes when they came back in this detrained state. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I reflect a bit on how those thoughts impacted our training throughout the year, and how it needs to have an impact on what we are doing going forward because this is our first off season in two years.

This week I have the absolute pleasure to catch up with Jill Zeller and talk about professional growth. After a quick run down of how she got out to USC we get into our evolutions as coaches. This leads her to her pillars of training and why having these as your totem to fall back on is so important. Tying into that we discuss mentors, what they have taught her, and things she has brought from each of her stops on the way out to LA. She then dives into how being a single sport strength coach helped her learn better ways to find solutions to make sure the team is moving in the right direction. We finish the talk sharing different ways we have navigated our way through the down days of the pandemic with some successful ways to make training a bit more competitive.

Chris Hays returns to My Thoughts Monday to discuss some ways he’s been giving his athletes a bit of autonomy in training with rep ranges. Giving this flexibility is something he’s had success with when it comes to allowing the athletes a bit of say with their daily training based on how they feel, while still getting what is needed out of the training session.

Episode 537: My Thoughts Monday #181- Jake Jensen- Limitations With Periodization Models Mar 29, 2021

“The predictions that a periodized structure tries to make, based on assumptions of fitness equaling tactical ability, they just don’t work for team sports.”
“If we can get outside of our space, recognize a theory for it’s base assumptions, and then dig into the minds of people who have more perspective, I think that’s something that can allow us to start making progress on chipping away at what transfer looks like and what periodization looks like in teams.”

Jake Jensen rejoins us to discuss some of the history and contemporary practices in the periodization of programming in this weeks My Thoughts Monday. This includes some of the assumptions made by traditional periodization theories, and how those theories that originated in track and field may have limitations in team sport. This leads him to his main thought on periodization, and that is that there are plenty of theories that exist, and with all the new tools we have access to for us to better evaluate and test those theories to better connect between theory and practitioners and drive better conversation to uncover the unknown unknowns.,

Talking monitoring and jump evaluations with Karim Derqaoui in this weeks episode of The Podcast. After a brief run down of how Karim got to Vald, we dive into how being a coach first has impacted how he views the “tech” and the metrics that he utilizes to assess athletes. This includes his three step model that he looks at when discussing monitoring decisions with coaches and athletes. He also shares with us examples of metrics he would look at for athletes in sports, and what those metrics would mean to him and the athlete that he is assessing. Next, Karim discusses the role of collaboration, why he feels it’s so important, and where he’s seen successes and failures with it. Karim is a fantastic resource, not just because of his knowledge, which is world class, but also his experience as a coach make his insight absolutely priceless when it comes to monitoring metrics and how “the team behind the team” can work together to find better ways to be better for their athletes.

I got to sit down and catch up with Chris Hays and talk developing as a coach in this weeks episode of The Podcast. After a quick step by step of how he got to Coppin State, we dive right into how growth doesn’t have to occur because you switch positions, but is something you should be doing where you’re at. He shares with us some of the extra roles he had at Coppin last year, and how he’s been able to maximize his role as a performance coach. Having to do some extraneous work initially at this position has been a huge learning experience for him, and one that he’s taken many positives away from that have helped him become a better. We then shift gears and talk about how his training focus has changed this year because of the pandemic, and what are the driving factors behind it. This includes how lessons learned throughout the pandemic will have a profound impact on his programming decisions moving forward.

Episode 534: My Thoughts Monday #180- Jay DeMayo- Proud To Be A Strength Coach Mar 22, 2021

“That’s 100% leadership. It’s looking at a situation, doing what’s right and then getting people to follow you.”
“We’re trying to ask question for people that don’t know those questions exist at times, and then we are turning around and getting upset when people aren’t willing to listen to the answers to the questions that they didn’t even know existed.”

I had the pleasure of sitting down to discuss the evolution from an athlete to a coach with Jena Ready in this weeks episode of The Podcast. The conversation starts right out with how she got into training, the role of her first strength coach in her love of the weight room, and how being a student athlete impacted her decision to become a coach. We then discuss the power of being given a chance, and how having the opportunity to be a head coach at a young age really helped us both evolve at a greater pace than we would have expected. We then go into how being involved with a large number of teams was vital to set the groundwork for our ability to dedicate our time to one team and provide more value. We finish off discussing what her experience as a college lacrosse player impacted her in both personally and as a coach.

I had the pleasure of sitting down and discussing training and running a powerlifting team with Guillermo Blanco in this weeks episode of The Podcast. After a run down of how he got to McKendree we roll right into the world of D2 sports, and how there are similarities and differences to both D3 and D1. This leads into a great discussion about what he feels his most important role is in the training process, any why he feels it’s so important. We then discuss the team he is a head coach for, the Powerlifting team. This includes the training and meet program, how that is set up through out the year, and how academics impact this year round sport. Guillermo’s coaching and the uniqueness of a powerlifting team is great insight into how we can work better to develop better training, and even use their “ideas” to provide better means for our athlete’s to improve.

One challenge for strength and conditioning coaches is finding ways to individualize the programming that is both efficient and able to be handled for us in the group setting while still keeping the “team” atmosphere in training. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share three different ways we are looking at doing just that, that hopefully can even drive better conversations and more collaboration in the athlete’s general physical preparation phase.

This week I got to sit down and discuss the evolution of training during the pandemic with Michael Kelley. After a quick run down of how he got to Grove City College we dive right into how this unique time has brought them to come up with unique ways to get their athlete’s in to train. This included them moving parts of their weight room to create a second space to accommodate to their 480 student athletes. This includes how the rules in D3 have made it even more challenging, but has also helped identify teams that are truly invested and have better cultures. We then discuss how they bucketed their athletes in different “levels” to allow them to use their different facilities to do the best they could for the athletes.

Episode 529: My Thoughts Monday #178- Jay DeMayo- Identifying Direction in Programming Mar 01, 2021

“When you have an actual why, and you have your direction, and you have your goals, and you make them known, you now can have legitimate conversations with people and truly audit every aspect of the program.”

You need to know your why has become a trendy statement in coaching. This stems mostly around the importance of the relationships we need to build with the athletes, coaches, and staff we get to work with every day. Our why can also include the why to what we are doing when it comes to programming. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share with you a way that I’ve reevaluated how we are setting up our program, and why having a true why driving the entire program has really helped us (hopefully) improve our progressions within the GPP phase of our program.

He then goes into the programming process and how he reverse engineers the game, while looking at similarities across different sports to help provide positive transfer to the sport. Frank shares with us some great insight on how he breaks down these movements, and how he looks at individual movements through a slightly different lens to help improve how we can structure our training weeks to better impact performance. We finish off discussing where we see our role change from the offseason to the in season, and where we both feel that performance coaches can do better to help the athletes and sport coaches. Frank puts out a lot of great content so make sure to give him a follow on instagram @coach_frankb.

Episode 528: My Thoughts Monday #177- Jay DeMayo- Your Focus Leads To Success or Failure Feb 22, 2021

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I reflect on the last book I read during this round of the 75 Hard Program, and that is Andy Frisella’s book on the program, 75 Hard. In his book he has a great Q and A section where he discusses different different ways people sabotage their ability to reach their goals. This has sparked a couple new thought processes for me when it comes to developing and progressing the programs for each individual athlete. This, HOPEFULLY, will increase “buy-in” for each athlete, thus improving the results of said training program.

Episode 527: Episode 276- Daniel Guzman- Meet The Athlete Where They Thrive Feb 16, 2021

“You have to have patience to allow them (the athletes) to figure out what works best for them.”
“What are the things that can actually anchor me down in a time of complete uncertainty?”
“How are you going to be the best coach that you can be for your athletes? I don’t think that’s going to be on low sleep or being over worked because, like we said, our seasons are long.”

This weeks episode of The Podcast I had the opportunity to sit down and catch up with Daniel Guzman and chat about flexibility in our programming and communication. After a quick run down of how he got back to LA we dive right into the unique challenges around physical preparation going into this off season. With the pandemic there are unique challenges to the athletes in their preparation with the restrictions that people are living under, which in some places is eliminating “pick up” and that could be a primary stimuli in their off season. We then discuss how the pandemic has taught us how to communicate better and forced us to reflect on our practice, and find better ways to get input from our athletes. We then discuss some aspects of the “off season” that we feel may be misinterpreted including goal setting, keeping the primary focus the focus, and autonomy/learning for the athlete. We finish off discussing the impact this has had on coaching health, and how it has made both of us find our “totems” to ground ourselves to find our “shut off” points to pause from work.

I’ve spoken many times about how 75 Hard has helped me improve, but it has been really important to “keeping me in line” during the season. One of the daily tasks of this program are reading 10 pages a day, which has really helped me to keep me growing and expanding as a coach. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share some take aways from a book that Ali Kershner referenced on The Podcast. The book, Improve Wisdom, has a lot of great lessons that transfer over to coaching quite well. I highly recommend it.

I have the pleasure of sitting down with Tim Caron to discuss training in this week’s episode of The Podcast. After a run-down of how he got out to Cali and opened Allegiate we get into his education background and how two very different “mentors” have had an immense impacts on him professional development. Tim then runs down the rabbit hole of nutrition, how he’s brought information from different experts together to lead to better discussions and prescriptions for the athletes he has gotten to work with in a more holistic way. We then discuss the role of in person learning from the greats, and how limitations to reading a book and thinking that you have the answers is really holding us back from truly understanding what their methods are. We finish off talking about the work that they’re doing to help educate coaches.

Episode 524: My Thoughts Monday #175- Jay DeMayo- How the Mentor/Mentee Relationship Can Improve Feb 08, 2021

“As powerful as the phrase, and as real as the phrase is, your network is your net worth, what you provide is even more important.”
“At the end of the you keep growing from your mentors, and you keep growing from your mentees because they’re the most important person to your career development, and they’re the most impactful person to how you can diversify your education?"

All too often we look at our mentors as the person who is going to “get us the next job”. This has been a topic of discussion lately in the lovely world of strength coach twitter, and one that I think we are missing the forest for the trees with. We need to take a step back and look at what is the most important part of this process, and that is hiring the right person. But the question is, what makes that person right, or the position right? In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share where I see that, and why I feel like that has been the driving factor behind our success and evolution as coaches and a staff.

This week’s episode of The Podcast is a great conversation on coaching education with Vinnie Calautti. After a brief run down of how he got down to The A, Vinnie dives into the role of his time up in Massachusetts and how huge of an impact it had on the trajectory of his professional voyage. This includes how interns get “paid” in the present “system” and the value that people seem to over look with these positions. Vinnie shares with us some specific stories from his way up the ranks that had great impact on him, including why he always has a stop watch, where to put your hands when you’re coaching, and the role of posture in your engagement with the athletes. We finish off discussing the role of continuing education and how diversifying the material you consume can help you not just improve as a coach, but drive you to find better ask questions you would not have known of otherwise.

Episode 521: My Thoughts Monday #174- Jay DeMayo- The Confusion Around Aerobic Exercise Feb 01, 2021

“If we’re going to say, and we’re going to mean, that we are trying to provide the minimal effective dose, and we are trying to pick the low hanging fruit off the tree first then what we can’t do is take the simplest, easiest, least stressful forms of activity and say ‘we will never do that’.”

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I chime in on a recent discussion I saw on strength coach Twitter, the utilization of aerobic exercise in physical preparation programs. Aerobic work, practically long duration aerobic work, has been looked down upon as a means to improve sport performance, and I feel this is a mistake. There are many situations where low end “cardio” is actually the best choice for an athlete. This really exposes the underlying problem, that we try to make too many blanket statements about training, a subject that we also say shouldn’t have a cookie cutter approach and that we need to go after the “low hanging fruit”. Instead we throw out one of the least stressful means and method we could utilize that can provide the greatest overall impact in their ability to perform at practice and in competition. I think that’s a mistake.

I had the pleasure of discussing the importance of thinking outside the preverbal box, just just in training but how we look at our entire world of coaching, with Ali Kershner. After a quick run down of how she got back out to Palo Alto, we get into her time and Kansas. This discussion includes a different perspective on the role of a mentor, and how learning from one of the trial blazers and most recognized coaches in the world leads to some trying scenario for young coaches who are trying to make their mark. We then discuss the role of autonomy, the misconceptions of it, and why it may be even more important that ever in this COVID world we are trying to navigate. We finish off discussing her latest project, “Ride The Grey” a podcast that she and Travis Knight discuss different topics and their relation to our field. Check them out on Apple Podcasts here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ride-the-grey/id1527817399.

Episode 518: My Thoughts Monday #173- Jay DeMayo- It Is Not Unsolicited Advice, It’s An Insult Jan 25, 2021

“Let’s work together more to get through this because we can do better.”
“We’re trying to ask question for people that don’t know those questions exist at times, and then we are turning around and getting upset when people aren’t willing to listen to the answers to the questions that they didn’t even know existed.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance. Vald’s constant drive to help coaches find better information to drive more educated directions is second to none. Check out this weeks Metric Minute and make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.com
Throughout this unique time we have been going through there were bound to be some bad things that happened in sports because of the time away, we all knew this. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I talk about how there are two ways people are addressing this, trying to look at information and do better when the athletes start back in the spring after another lay off, and those who are just providing unsolicited advice about what people need to be doing. Using this time to point fingers at people is really disappointing and just attacking coaches at our weakest point, and that is the anxiety many coaches have when it comes to their professional stability. We need to be better than this

Episode 517: Episode 272- Andrew Langford- How the Principles of Science are Important To Coaches Jan 19, 2021

“We do collect enough data, it’s often that we don’t really use it or look at it or use it properly.”

What should the actual requirements to become a strength and conditioning coach be, and where can governing bodies do better to regulate these credentials? This has been a hot topic for quite a while in our small corner in the world of sport and exactly why I wanted Andrew Langford on The Podcast. Andrew is the director of the International Universities Strength and Conditioning Association, which is a new accreditation organization that’s providing a lot of great support to helping improve our profession, where they’re main objective is to bridge the gap between schooling/research and practical experience/coaching on the floor. Throughout the talk Andrew dives into the role of research in education, it’s limitations within journals, the role of data collection, mistakes coaches may be making with it, and the power of a staff audit in bringing more value and displaying how things can improve.

Episode 517: My Thoughts Monday #172- Yes, We Have A Long Way to Go, But How Far Have We Come? Jan 18, 2021

There is a common knee jerk reaction to position postings on social media that typically is something similar to “I can’t believe that they are still paying people so bad for these positions, it’s why I got out of the profession.” In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I talk about these openings, the evolution of a position, and how we may actually be moving forward. We are not where we all feel that should be, but if we take a step back and look, we may be in a better spot then we think.

Does getting stronger in the weight room help you bowl faster or sprint faster?
3) What’s your escape?
I’m a big family man, family first for me always.

Today we are joined by Courtney Walden. After a run down of how she got out to Eugene she shares with us the role of her athletic career impacted her as a coach, including how the lessons of “contact time” and “stimulus” were taught to her in a unique manner through her time as a gymnast and a pole vaulter. She then discussed the idea of movement quality and how “feeling good” when doing it is just as valuable, if not more so. This is so vital, not just in allowing the athlete to load better, but also in helping drive autonomy, ownership, and buy-in with training. This leads her into a lesson on cueing, and how allowing the players to use iPads and review reps with their teammates helped build new “sport related” cues so the players had a better understanding of what they were trying to do in the gym.

Episode 516: My Thoughts Monday #171- Jay DeMayo- Has the Pendulum Swung Too Far…Again? Jan 11, 2021

“If we are being entrusted for the physical preparation of the student athletes, or of the young people we get to work with, shouldn’t we allow the coaches, and shouldn’t we provide them the trust to develop the special preparation for their athletes?”

In our world of sport performance there have been multiple pendulum swings. From the Olympic lifts, to Husker Power, to functional training, the list goes on and on. One that has been most active of late is the importance of specificity. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share some of the reflecting I have been doing of late when it comes to programming, and why I think we may have gone too far down the “specific” rabbit hole, and why this may be one of the things limiting us as a profession by preventing us to develop a true “role” in sport.

“I need them to perform on Saturday’s, and I can’t get them to perform on Saturday’s if I break them on Monday.”
“You can’t just throw somebody into a situation without any prior training and then say, “well if you didn’t do it well you’re just not mentally tough.” No that just doesn’t work.”
“Trying to grossly apply mental toughness to specific situations makes for broken athletes.”

This week I get the opportunity to discuss the misconceptions of the role of military training with Jason Crutchfield. After quick run down of how he got into coaching we discuss what his role was in the military and how that has impacted his outlook as a coach, including what training for OCS (Officer Candidate School) is like and some of the mistakes people make when they look at that type of training. He then dives into the ideas of maximum capacity threshold that they experienced in the Marine vs the minimum effective dose he tries to implement with his athletes. He then dives down the “mental toughness” rabbit hole, and where he see’s people being confused with what they do in the military and how it’s in team sports. Make sure to give him a follow on instagram @speed_coach1.

Sense we were kids we were taught to color inside the lines. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday Molly Binetti discusses the idea of staying inside the lines as a strength coach. Living up to the assumptions of what we “are” or how we are supposed to act may be what is holding us back from moving forward. Molly shares with us some of the issues that she sees with the lack of education and professional standards, which leads her to giving us an example and a possible solution to help us to continue to push our great field forward.

This week I get the chance to sit down and discuss the voyage of a strength coach with Robb Hornett. After a run-down of how he got to St. Louis we get into what the lessons were in his stop. Each one bringing him a unique point of view and new perspective to help drive him forward. We then talk about the timing of training throughout the week in season, and how setting the schedule more for recovery than for performance has changed his programming. This leads him into a discussion on controlling what you can, and making sure that you are doing the best with what you’re able to control, to be even better for your athletes. We finish off talking about the return to sport after the lay off and some lessons that were taken from this time away, and where our two teams are at the present moment in our preparation and how ready we both are for games to start.

Episode 512: My Thoughts Monday #169- Jay DeMayo- My Personal New Year’s Resolutions Dec 28, 2020

“Don’t wait until you’re 40, jaded, grey, tired all the time, and kind of beaten and worn down looking if I look at myself in the camera right now, to sit here and start this because the most powerful thing in the world is compounding interest.”

A year ago, this time, who would have thought we would be where we are now? Not me, that’s for sure. But looking back on 2020, it has been a year of a ton of growth for me, and because of this, it has made me ask some different questions and really refocus on where I am personally. I’ve tried to continue to challenge myself, and push boundaries. This has led to some things that I am going to try to do differently to be better, and one of those is to write down and share my new year’s resolutions. It’s only two things, but I think that these will really help me continue to grow and become a better all-around person, plus hold me accountable to it putting it online. Those are: read (and invest in) 10 pages a day minimum, and pay myself first.

Recently I had the opportunity to sit down and discuss training transfer and monitoring the training process with Dr. Tim Suchomel. After a run down of how he got up to Carroll University, Tim starts discusses where the confusion on what actually “transfer” means and how sees how it can actually show up. He then runs down the rabbit hole of how they evaluate their athlete’s and have built their “model” for what their best athletes have looked like. This drives training decisions, and has been helpful in identifying outliers and how they’re either exceptional at one specific aspect of their sport or where they need to find ways to improve. We finish off discussing the process of building these athlete profiles, what some roadblocks where in this process, and how it is continuing to evolve as their ability to collect and apply data expands.

Chris Hays rejoins us in this weeks My Thoughts Monday to discuss the idea of having a growth mindset. All too often, people answer questions about goals and dreams how people what them to answer it, but are their actions leading to these outcomes? Chris shares with us how this idea popped into his head taking a continuing education course on a topic in training that he would have never thought of implementing in the past, but letting his guard down and listening to a colleague helped spark him to grow and expand to learn more about these methods.

“We need to be proactive in order to be reactive.”
“If you’re willing to do what the game demands, it may be something you’ve never done before, but to do what you’ve never done before in a time we’ve never experienced before, really should be the status quo.”

The first couple weeks and road trip of this college basketball season were some fantastic learning experiences.

Today we are joined by Candice Walls to discuss the transition from college to high school coaching. After a quick run down of how she got to the point to make the decision to move to Denver she dives into how the “coaching identity” was really hard to get over. She then shares with us how this transition is going, things she misses form her staff at U of L, and what she’s really excited about at this new position. There are unique challenges to every position, and Candice and I get to talk about many of those, and how there are pro and cons to working with younger athletes that have improved how both of us teach. We get into how communication has changes, especially in this COVID world, how quickly kids get “glassy eyed” and they “zoom out” when you’re going over things, and how being quick, to the point, and having them repeat it has been a great change.

Episode 507: My Thoughts Monday #166- Jay DeMayo- We Are Life Long Learners, Until You Question Us… Dec 07, 2020

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share my thoughts on this recent uptick in Twitter wars over coaches questioning some traditional “methods” when it comes to football. These recent battles are over the implementation and utilization of mat drills, 300 yard shuttles, and 110’s. In each of these, if there is a practical reason behind the why then I’m all for it. Where I do see a problem is the lack of communicating the why’s to these and it just being, as was said on Twitter “give us our game back.” It’s impossible for us to grow and evolve if we do not discuss our reasoning, look at research, and have conversations about those two to help us ALL make better decisions and help push ourselves forward. All these internet fights are doing, in reality, is holding us, as a profession, back and keeping us from having a seat at the table.

Episode 506: Outside The Rack #67- Claus Souza Dec 03, 2020

“When I really try to impose my idea of what it is to be right on them, big clash, but when I lower my level and I learn from them, or I coach with them vs. coaching them, I became so much better as a professional.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 67th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware.

Before we start, who is Claus Souza?
I’m just a kid who grew up in Brazil who had a dream to work in sports.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Jujitsu and he realized to every issue in the weight room there’s always an answer.
2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
Why do people act violently or selfishly? What drives people to commit violent acts?
3) What’s your escape?
My resets are good coffee, a good steak, my girlfriend, and jujitsu.

Episode 506: Episode 265-Eric Potter- Making It To Complicated Leads To Failure Dec 01, 2020

“We don’t have to guard the weight room the whole day, you should spend time working yourself.”
“If we want a certain thing, we have to set ourselves up for success. So, if you want a certain guy to jump higher he needs to jump more. If you want a certain guy to shoot better he needs to shoot more. And trying to make it more complex than it actually needs to be is just setting everyone up for failure.”

In this week’s episode of The Podcast I get the opportunity to talk about taking care of ourselves off the court and using those lessons to connect with athletes, with ODU’s Eric Potter. After a quick run-down of how Eric got down to Norfolk we get into what financial literacy is to him, why it’s important, and how we both got into looking into this subject. This leads us into the discussion of being more time efficient and looking at doing better with the time we have and scheduling for what we really do, not just guarding the weight room. We finish off talking about how important it is to keep things simple and moving towards the specific goals of the moment both in training and in life.

The first time was why I’m even in this business. After graduating college I stumbled upon AA running a workout at USC before I knew what S and C was.

Where should I be? Five years from now, 10 years from now, what is the right choice?
3) What’s your escape?
First and foremost my two daughters, a second would be the river and fishing to just unplug, the third, being a California guy, would be the beach and surfing.

Bad things happen. This can be stated about all things in life, but bad things definitely happen in sports. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday, Chris Hays shares with us some of his reflecting after one of his athlete’s was injured. With the time off that we have all spoken about multiple times, there are consequences associated with having these layoffs. Unfortunately for some, there are also events that remind us of these layoffs.

This week I have the absolute pleasure to sit down and discuss speed development with Dr. Ken Clark. After a quick rundown of how he got up to West Chester we get right into discussing speed. We discuss how it’s become more “en vogue” of late, and bridge being connected between research and training. Dr. Clark then shares with us how they bring the research to the track and how the answer to how to connect the practical with the research tends to be, keep it simple. This leads us right into the horizontal vs vertical forces when it comes to speed, and how at the end of the day the answer is some place in the middle. He then discusses top end speed, its role in training, and where it can be utilized in sports that don’t sprint or have time to hit Max V can still benefit from hitting high speeds in training. We finish off discussing the future of research, and how the next step is involving teams and higher-level athletes. Dr. Clark puts out some great info on twitter and Instagram at @kenclarkspeed and his website kenclarkspeed.com so make sure to check those out!

The first, progressional, is “what else are we missing that could really help us give our athletes the tools necessary to be the best they can be?”
The second, personally, is “what else is really out there?”
3) What’s your escape?
My big one, yearly, is to go snow boarding.

My Thoughts Monday #161- Jay DeMayo- Does Our Mission Match THE Mission? Nov 02, 2020

“If winning is what is the goal then your metrics need to show you’re improving that likelihood.”
“If the experience of the young people is the primary objective, we need to provide them with a positive experience, and if the things that we maybe have been taking away, because we feel like they don’t impact performance, actually drive the positive experience, then maybe those things should go back in.”
“Are we following the mission of what the department has, or are we following the mission of what we think it should be?”

Conversations are consistently had where strength coaches talk with each other about how “sport coaches don’t get it” or “admin has no idea” when it comes to what we do and why we do things. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I try to put the shoe on the other foot and talk about how possibly we may be going at things incorrectly because we are not following the mission statement of the department.

In this weeks episode of The Podcast, I get to talk about the state of the strength and conditioning world with Matt Gildersleeve. After a brief run down of how he got up to Buffalo Sleeve starts discussing the role of perspective, and how taking a walk in a different direction opened his eyes to looking at things a bit differently. This leads us into a discussion of biases, including where they come from and how they can be both good and bad. After he gets me on a good rant we then get into the reductionist lens that coaches use, and how this could be a huge limiting factor to our profession moving forward. This includes a discussion about programming and having someone audit your work who has a different background and the role of hiring to bring a different point of view to help people be better. This talk is full of great learning situations and times that have impacted both of us to help us become the coaches we are today, some positive, some negative, but all led to progress.
We are hoping to provide the best possible content for strength coaches with each of our shows. If feel this could provide value for anyone else in the strength and conditioning field please feel free to share

My Thoughts Monday #160- Molly Binetti - What Type Of Environment Are You Creating? Oct 26, 2020

“When we seek to understand we can then connect with, and create an environment that they want to be a part of because it matters to them.”
“We’re trying to ask question for people that don’t know those questions exist at times, and then we are turning around and getting upset when people aren’t willing to listen to the answers to the questions that they didn’t even know existed.”

How can you make the weight room an environment that your athlete’s want to be part of? This is a question that coaches have been digging to find better answers to for as long as there have been weight rooms. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday, Molly Binetti shares with us how autonomy can help contribute to, not just that, but also how well your athlete’s learn as well. Not only does Molly break down the why’s but she provides specific examples to HOW she does this with her athletes at USC, and where she’s seen success with this.

The third installment of these big lessons during the pandemic boils down to one of the issues that we, as performance professionals, might be missing the boat with whatever form of monitoring we are utilizing. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share what I think about the questions we are trying to answer, and where the origin of these questions truly need to start from. Spoiler alert, more often than not, it’s not us.

In this weeks edition fo The Podcast I sit down and talk about return to play progressions with Florida Atlantic University’s Zach Higginbotham. After a quick run down of how he got down to FAU Zach talks about how he started getting really involved developing return to sport progressions. We then start to discuss metrics, their impact in the return to sport process, and how they can act as a guide to not just bring them “back” but possibly help them come back at a better level. Zach then discusses the continuum from GPP to SPP and how exercise selection and progression leads directly into the the athlete’s psychological preparation post injury.

My Thoughts Monday #158- Jay DeMayo- Coaches Just Are Not Quite Ready Oct 12, 2020

“If people aren’t willing to listen to simple rational thought, in the most simple rational situations, the idea of utilizing complex metrics makes zero sense.”

As I continue on my pandemic reflections, this week I discuss one that kind of hit me like a ton of bricks. One of the topics that kept popping up during quarantine is the need for monitoring and tracking. This was even questioned by some because it’s something that many feel like we should have been doing all along. This is the topic of this weeks My Thoughts Monday. As we look at how sport coaches have handled these “adjustments”, or maybe we should say should NOT have handled them, it raises the question. Are sport coaches actually ready for monitoring and bigger metrics? Today, I give the reasons why I don’t think they are.

My Thoughts Monday #157- Jay DeMayo- The Power of A Purpose Oct 05, 2020

This COVID-19 Pandemic has provided one thing for all of us, and that is time to reflect a bit. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share the first of those reflections, and that is how powerful it is to have a purpose. This purpose has both a positive and a negative side, both building up and breaking down, but a byproduct of it is that it has led to more than one way of improving me as a person and as a coach.

Outside The Rack #58- Dr. Brad DeWeese Oct 01, 2020

“We’re going to be forgotten at some point, so we need to do something that we won’t forget.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 58th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by the Assistant Athletic Director for Sport Performance at East Tennessee State University, Dr. Brad DeWeese. Doc, thanks for being with us today.
Before we start, who is Dr. Brad DeWeese?
A hip hop head who’s still a coach with an administration role.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
When I was young I wanted to be the best coach in the world and have a medal count no one could catch. All I saw was numbers, and then Steve Holcomb died. That changed the focus from the numbers to the people.
2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
Is it really turtles all the way down? What is it that unifies our existence?
3) What’s your escape?
My four kids are my escape, I love seeing them react to new things.

Episode 256- Dr. Josh Nelson- Influencing Behavior For Positive Results Sep 29, 2020

“We don’t want to give information, we want to impact positive behaviors”
“Boil it down to the why and it will drive everything that you’re doing.”

In this weeks episode of the podcast Dr. Josh Nelson joins us to discuss ways that we can help educate athletes and coaches and impact positive behavior changes for the people they get to work with. He then discusses how he periodizes this “education” and why he chooses what he chooses at different times of the year. This includes how they look at the different forms of stress (school, sports, social, current events) and how those impact what messages they are trying to get across to everyone involved to help them be better. This discussing is full of great ways for coaches to help figure out direction for them to help communicate to everyone they get to work with on how to better take care of themselves to be able to perform at a high level. This includes some great analogies and the role of social media to “meet the kids where they’re at” and get messages across to people in the different mediums available.

In this world of constant stimulation from social media, podcasts, and our computer phones, information is everywhere.

1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Early on as an assistant in the league, looking at how great athlete’s are not the best in the weight room showed me that I have to think outside of what the “book” tells us to do training wise.
2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
Static stretching, is it good or bad?
3) What’s your escape?
The bubble changed this, now I just want to go to the park and run around with my kids.

This week I get to sit down and discuss the developing a true speed program with Villanova’s Football Strength Coach, Mike Tucker. Mike and I start out discussing our journeys to where we are, and how starting at a lower level division one institution really formed us as a coach and made us really find out way though our initial growth as professionals. Coach Tucker then dives into how he builds his program, and what he is actually looking at when he reverse engineers the sport of American Football. This includes the structure of his programming and he works to find better ways to marry the stimuli that he’s utilizing with his athletes. We then discuss how this pandemic has lead to some new challenges, but also has some benefits allowing us to “slow cook it” a bit more, and how he feels this is going to have an impact, not just on the players, but the coaches as well. Make sure you hop over to http://just-sprint.com to check out everything Coach Tucker has going on, including all the latest on #Sprintember.

The mentorship program at Louisville is all encompassing for the young coaches, bringing them to the field, the coaches offices, and to meet with sports med, sports psych, and senior administration so these young coaches truly understand what the day in and day outs of being a performance coach are. He shares with us the thoughts behind these meeting and how they prepare the mentees for them so that they can best communicate to those different groups. We finish off discussing his work with volleyball at U of L, and how that has evolved in his tenure with The Cards.

Other then just looking at the actual X’s and O’s of the program and where we go next, one thing really resonated with me, and that is how different this program was from the norm for me, and the huge impact of allowing other people on our staff contribute to this. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share my feelings on this collaboration process and why I feel we still have a hard time doing this even thought it has been a “sexy” topic dating back to the last BSMPG meeting.

I had a great time talking with Instagram Live with Yoeri Pegel to talk all things training. Yoeri gets to work with AFC Ajax’s developmental squad along with a couple other side ventures in training in basketball and fighting. We start out talking about training basketball, how he got into basketball and what are the driving factors to his training philosophy with developing basketball players. We then discuss his transition to soccer, talking about the difference in the athletes, and what things did and didn’t work in basketball vs pro soccer. We then discuss the role of physical preparation in the development of an athlete and where it may need to take a back seat at times, and strategies he had success with getting the pro soccer players to get into the weight room.

At the conclusion of week 2 of our return to sport from this pandemic break came to a conclusion I took some time to reflect. One thing that I kept coming back to were the driving factors behind some decisions we made to make some changes to the plan so that we can keep progressing, and how there was an accidental check point for us to see where we are and how we are progressing. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss where the check point showed up, what we saw, how it impacted our progressions, and how this is going to change how I look at this progression going forward.

As we continue to progress into this return to sport during COVID-19 I’ve had the luxury of being able to discuss with a lot of practitioners about their plans, policy’s, and procedures in the process. Many of these coaches has expressed the same concerns, and that is a lack of leadership. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share where I feel we, as performance practitioners, can lead better, and really help drive our departments forward because we are so used to having to evolve and be agile and flexible with what we do.

The return to sport programming for athletes has been a huge point of conversation through this whole “break” that we have had. Along with building the plan, handling sport coaches along with it has been at the front of everyones mind. This is why it’s vital for coaches to have confidence in, not just the program, but how they communicate what and why they’re doing what they are doing as well, is vital. We also need to be ready and confident in our plans to take care of the athletes that have set backs. What’s our back up plan? What’s our plan for kids that have set backs? How are we, as a performance staff as a whole, going to handle these issues? In this weeks My Thoughts Monday, I share our plans for that, and why this set up the way we do and what some of our “Plan B” ideas are.

Chris then shares with us how how role as a director has changed during this pandemic, and how he has tried to be creative to keep things as close to “normal” as possible. Chris then runs down the rabbit hole of our role, how he is trying to expand his, and how communication, or at times keeping quiet, are driving factors.

My Thoughts Monday #145- The What’s And Whys To Our Return To Sport Program Jul 13, 2020

“We know intent is king, right, so if you are springing fast and jumping high, as explosively or far or whatever as possible, and you just cut the volume and work your way up with that, you’re going to get a heck of a lot more out of that you are if you’re moving 100 pounds, which is 50% of what you should be lifting.”

As student athletes are starting to return to campus some coaches have already had the ability to start to work with their athletes, while some are starting in the near future. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss the plan that we have built for our athletes return to sport when they come back on campus, why we chose these things based on some of the conversations we have been lucky to have with coaches who are already “in the trenches.” This simple progression of basic progressive overload makes a lot of sense to me, but would love to get your input or feedback on the plan.

Podcast 244- An Instagram Live Q and A with Chris Ham Jul 07, 2020

“Everyday these guys come to the weight room is an assessment to me.”
“Once you get these guys to understand self awareness, it’s big. Understanding the decisions they make outside of the weight room, outside the baseball field are going to have a huge impact on what they try to do, especially when it comes to performance.

Recently, I had the opportunity to talk developing baseball players with Chris Ham on an Instagram live. Chris has a unique background being an athletic trainer, and he shares with us his evaluation protocols that he utilizes so that he can best “bucket” his athletes. He then discusses the relationship between S and C and ATC’s and how to enhance that relationship to make sure are all all working to better the athlete together. We finish off discussing the implementation of VBT with baseball players.

One topic that has come up in many of the meetings we have had of late is a concern over the free time that the student athletes will have in “the bubble” when they return. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share some ideas that we have and are hoping to implement. I’d really love to hear some of your thoughts and feed back on these, because none of this is written in stone.

Outside The Rack #45- Molly Binetti Jul 02, 2020

“I used to pride myself on being right and having answers and having all this knowledge and being able to communicate that. I think more than anything right now now I pride myself on asking better questions and not be so concerned about having the answers, but realizing that I don’t have answers.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 45th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by The University of South Carolina’s Women’s Basketball’s Sport Performance Coach, Molly Binetti. Molly, thanks for being with us today.
Before we start, who is Molly Binetti?
Someone who’s obsessed with human potential.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Coming to USC there was a specific player who was very talented, but was never in shape and didn’t like to work. Initially they didn’t get along, and it wore her out to the point she questioned everything she was doing. This made her realize there has to be a better way and reevaluate how she was handing her athletes.
2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
How do we change?
3) What’s your escape?
Getting lost in a book or in nature, and being around people who bring me joy.

Podcast 243- A Reality Check with Don Day Jun 30, 2020

“Some people don’t know how to have the conversations because they can’t fathom what we go through.”
“It starts with conversation. You can’t have common ground if you don’t have conversations.”

This weeks episode of The Podcast is a conversation I got to have with Don Day recently on the present social and political situations. This conversation was very eye opening for me to hear what is still going on throughout the country, and college athletics is not immure to it. We discuss Black Lives Matter, and Don sheds some light onto some of the misconceptions. We discuss college athletics and where there are still issues that are race related, and some specific issues within the system that limit the advancement of African Americans. Don gets into so very personal stories, real life situations, where he has experienced racism. This whole conversation, in my opinion, is one that coaches need to be having with their athletes, and colleagues to find out how we can all be better, together.

My Thoughts Monday #143- Have a Plan, That Fits Your Principles, Driven With Data Jun 29, 2020

“If we have to make alterations to the plan, if we don’t have a plan, there is nothing to make alterations too.”
“Weather your principles are X, Y, or Z itchy need to be able lead directly into the plan that you have, and if your principles lead into the plan, then how you are monitoring, or how you are evaluating, or what you are monitoring, should fall right into place.”

Dr. Josh Nelson joined us for FREE-VASPS to share with us how they are going to evaluate their student athletes, and what are the driving factors behind these metrics. In today’s My Thoughts Monday I share what I took away from this talk, being how important it is to have a plan that fits your principles, how those should drive you to what data you’re going to utilize to make sure you’re moving in the right direction, and how we need to be better with simply clearly communicating what is important.

House projects, nature, and the beach.

My Thoughts Monday #142- Monitoring Is More Then Just Taking Away Jun 22, 2020

“Our job is to increase performance, and one of the things we have to do to increase performance is increase the athletes resilience to stress. You can not increase the athlete’s resilience to stress if you don’t stress the athlete.”

Today’s My Thoughts Monday is a review of Emma Beanland’s presentation at FREE-VASPS. Emma is one of the most well versed people in athlete tracking in the world, and has taught many coaches the ins and outs of it, so with that in mind we could talk for a long time about the simplicity and complexity of how she deciphers the data, and the roles of floor and ceiling values, but today I discuss one thing she said. That is the thought that coaches still look at all of these monitoring devices as a means to make athletes do less work, when in realitiy, I feel the goal is the exact opposite.

This weeks episode of The Podcast is a discussion I got to have with Aaron DuVall on how they have built their monitoring program. Aaron shares with us the work they are doing with their engineering department, and how that is impacting the work they are doing with their student athletes. This is an exceptionally unique situation and one that many of us in this field need to take better advantage of, not just because they can provide a service, but they can also provide a different view point of what we are looking at. He also breaks down how they collect and utilize subjective information from their athletes, and how that has been very beneficial to them in the ability to program better for their athletes.

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a review of a huge take-a-way from Stephanie Mock’s awesome presentation from FREE-VASPS. Stephanie shared with us their entire return to sport progression, including how they’re going to train there athletes when they return, but the primary take away for me was her evaluations and how she discussed our role in developing objective KPI’s. The idea of KPI’s and tracking has been a bit of a hot button of late, and are things that we all should have been implementing for some time now. In this My Thoughts Monday, I share how this layoff period has been super helping in allowing us to have a great opportunity to look at what we are evaluating, address deeper how it will impact programming, how we can better share information, and so on.

“Can we get savagely good at the things we can do that are simple to build upon?”

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share some take aways from Cam Davidson’s talk from FREE-VASPS. Cam shared with us the ins and outs of how he plans to work with his volleyball athletes week 1 when they return to Penn State, and that plan is to get back to the basics, keep programming savagely simple, and get really good at lifting again. This is some advice that I think all of us could use when we look at our programming going forward upon return to campus.

My Thoughts Monday #138- How can we impact workloads without interfering with practice Jun 01, 2020

“If we are really serving both of them (players and coaches) what we really might have to do to be best for all of them is almost step back, and say ok, how can we do things to get better in the least amount of work possible?”
How can we support what these young people need to do to be successful for the coaches we are trying to assist?”

As I continue to discuss some of my take aways from FREE-VASPS, today we come to Kaiti Jones presentation on how she plans to develop her basketball players to be prepared post stay at home. Kaiti does some really awesome things to help impact the training load on her athletes by manipulating aspects of her work with them both in training and during sport practice. This allows the sport coaches to continue to progress as they deem fit with out interruption or massive modifications. I’ve spoken many times about how important I feel that this is for us to be able to do, and was super imnpressed with how Kaiti makes this happen.

I get the great opportunity to talk with Adam Ringler about how we can maximize some of the time and opportunities in our down time. We discuss the role of continuing education, connecting with coaches and athletes, and the unique challenges that we were both having “working from home” and how these will impact us going forward. Adam then runs down the rabbit hole of return to play, which is a project he’s working on, and what impact that has on his view on how we will need to be involved in “return to sport” in multiple levels for our athletes. He then dives into where facts and opinions both fit into the discussions we are about to have with our athletes and coaches, and how important it is to work the objective and subjective together to make the best decisions.

Mike shared with us how he plans on building his preparation program, what were the driving factors behind it, and the questions that he used to build it. Today I review 4 key points that I took from that and how those four points made me go back and review what we have planned for our guys, and even make some changes.

Starting at Penn State learning what “simple but not easy” means.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?

Seriously, “I’d like to know why I was born, what am I set to do here?”
3) What’s your escape?
I started training away from DePaul at Quads Gym to be able to be in that presence. Outside of training I’ve found flotation tanks to be a reset button. Spending time with my finance diving into a Netflix binge.

Coach Clay Bewley joined us to discuss his progression and programming at the high school level. Coach Clay gets to work with over 300 kids, and runs some really large groups that require some unique programming and progressions. Clay has a really great, not overly complex, but really precise progression that he shares with us from start to finish including what are some boxes he wants the kids to tick to move up and what may lead him to regress some athletes back a level. He also shares where he sees the role of positive reinforcement, how important that is, and where he has seen it really build strong relationships with his athletes.

As this “new norm” continues we are now facing a unique challenge in the world of physical preparation, and that is an actual off season. In many, if not all sports, participation year round has become the norm. With the current situation hampering those opportunities we now have the opportunity to prepare these athletes for participation. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share some ways we have started to look at this developmental period, how we have “had the answers” all along, and how we are hoping to progress and audit this progress.

Outside The Rack #37- Andrew Cormier Apr 30, 2020

“Intensive training is intensive training regardless of if you’re just looking at it as the exercise or the overall training loads.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 37th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by University of Massachusetts Sports Performance Coach Andrew Cormier. Andrew, thanks for being with us today?
Before we start, who is Andrew Cormier?
I’m a guy that tries to find place and people better then he found them
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
The biggest thing has been, when you really view any of the work done by athletes, you realize you maybe don’t need to quite as much as you do in the weight room.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
“What is the perfect holistic program that takes into account all factors?”
3) What’s your escape?
I actually prefer anything quiet, like being outside by a lake, or listening to nature.
We are hoping to provide the best possible content for strength coaches with each of our shows. If feel this could provide value for anyone else in the strength and conditioning field please feel free to share.

Got to sit down with Chase Campbell and talk all things training. We go through some ways we have used to work around tendon issues with athletes, and some reflections on this past seasons training. We also run down the rabbit hole of unilateral vs bilateral training, and what value he has found from riding the fence on this aspect of training, and how hand supported single leg exercises have changed his point of view of training on one leg.

My Thoughts Monday #134- What Really Is Experience? Apr 27, 2020

A topic of debate is what experience is required to have a say. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss why time in the field alone is not enough to say you have greater experience than someone else, and why we really CAN and SHOULD learn from coaches of all “experience” levels.

Podcast 234- An Instagram Live Conversation with Todd Hamer Apr 21, 2020

“Do not allow perfection to stand in the way of improvement.”
“Trust and respect, that’s what you're building, trust and respect. You have to give it and you to earn it back from those people that you’re giving it to. If you can earn trust and respect you can probably have success as a strength and conditioning coach.”

Todd Hamer joined us right in the beginning of the country shutting down due to the pandemic to talk a little shop. Todd gives us a quick history of Union Fitness, some of his thoughts on what was going on, and how his philosophy is impacting how he’s programming from a distance. He then discusses the role of soft skills and what he sees as a “successful coach”. He then shares some stories to give us his reasoning to feel that training and corrective exercises are synonymous.

Outside The Rack #35- Graeme Morris Apr 16, 2020

“Strength isn’t everything, there’s a lot of different aspects to physical performance. A lot of the stuff we do, we are trying to support athletic development, and sometimes that’s that we just need to get out of the way, and let the athletes do what they do best.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 35th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by my good friend Graeme Morris. Graeme, thanks for being with us today.
Before we start, who is Graeme Morris?
A strength and conditioning coach who grew up on a farm.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Watching people let go, and how disposable we are, we need to have a back up plan.
Three years ago in Thailand, getting rag dolled by a 70 Kg guy, strength isn’t everything.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
“What should be my next plan going ahead?”
3) What’s your escape?
I like training and going to the fight gym, and I really like learning and reading something new.

Today I have the absolute pleasure of discussing remote coaching with national level athletes and how strong may be strong enough, with the Canadian Olympic Committee’s Scott Willgress. After a quick intro Scott shares with us how the progression of building this program with their national softball team. These steps have gone from using dropbox and excel to where they are now using an athlete management software and bar velocity monitoring. He then shares with us how he is continuing to work his different teams and continue monitoring and communicating with the athletes and coaches when they’re on the road. Next, he dives into the work he has done to look into how strong is strong enough, including what lifts they look at, why they look at them, and where this “magic number” is that he’s seeing. Looking at these numbers and then “bucketing” the players into “strong enough” and “not strong enough” groups has brought about great results for him and his athlete. Make sure to give him a follow on IG @sdubstrength.

My Thoughts Monday #131- The Value of a Presentation is The Questions It It Makes You Ask Apr 13, 2020

“If we all had it figured out we would all be doing the same thing.”
“Can you take something from someone, and make it make you think and reevaluate, and breakdown what you are doing?”

This weeks My Thoughts Monday I share some of the driving reasons behind CVASPS and how it’s still useful as we look at presentations today. All to often we see people discussing presentations on social media and referring to these “great” presentation because they provide confirmation bias. I understand where that may fit, and why we would enjoy those talks, but what we hope the presentations at CVASPS do is make people ask questions about what they’re doing. That to me, is what makes a great presentation, and I share some examples of those that I’ve seen recently that did just that.

Outside The Rack #34- Matt Thome Apr 09, 2020

“Sometimes you need to slow down and go back and kind of reground yourself and say, ‘What is the most important thing we are doing? How can we accomplish that?’ Rather than, let me add this, and add that, and add this, and before you know it you have three different things that are kind of aimed for one goal.”
‘This puzzle is never ending, which is what makes this field great.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 34th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by ALTIS Performance and Innovation Manager, Matt Thome. Matt, thanks for being with us today?
Before we start, who is Matt Thome?
Dad, husband, Phd. student.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
When I was at Richmond, but I’ve seen over and over, and that is keep things simple and don’t forget about the essentials.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
What’s the best way that we can create a collaborative performance team?
3) What’s your escape?
For me it’s going on a hike, getting out side a bit.

Today I have the absolute pleasure of sitting down and discussing the road to becoming a strength and conditioning coach in the NBA with Felipe Eichenberger. He starts out the discussion sharing with us where he see’s the role of conditioning, monitoring, how they’re tied together, and how his time as a player helps him with building out these “workouts”. He then shares with us how he “buckets” the team, how this impacts training decisions, and what the goals are of each group. We then discuss the steps he had to take to get to the league and what advice he would give to young International coaches wanting to come to the states to practice. We finish off touching upon the importance of metrics in increasing buy-in and helping the athletes understand what they’re doing and how much they’re improving.

My Thoughts Monday #130- Lessons From Grey Beard, Don’t Be A Jerk Apr 06, 2020

“In today’s day and age I don’t feel like you can be respected by kids if they don’t like you”
“If you’re going to be a jerk to people you better be exemplary, like out of this world at what you do, period, because people aren’t going to put up with it.”
“That’s the most overlooked thing in all of sports. Find you a crew that really wants to work for each other, and really likes each other, and really loves each other, and is willing to do whatever it takes even if that means stepping aside and doing less, or not arguing with someone over something because it’s really not what is most important at the present moment.”

“Not enough coaches think about how you can become irreplaceable.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 33rd episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware.

Before we start, who is Rett Larson?
A coach who’s proud to work abroad, who doesn’t take himself, nor s and c, too seriously.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Stop thinking that you’re so crucially important to think you have to things all one way.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
How much longer the corona virus scare is going to kick the stock market?
3) What’s your escape?
On the daily, it’s been crossword puzzles forever. The second place that is my happy place is going bowling alone with an audio book or podcast.

We are joined by UMASS’s Andrew Cormier to discuss using a minimal dose. After a quick run down of how Andrew got up to Amherst, he dives right into what where the driving factors behind the training he set up for the softball team at UMASS. This includes teaching the athletes what “full effort” is, and how they plan out their training weeks. He then shares with us what improvements he saw by cutting the volume of the work and what the athlete’s subjective response was it. Next, he shares with us what he’s taken away from this experiment with cutting volume, and how he sees it impacting his programming in the future. We finish off discussing how this model will alter his in season training, how he has shifted his “focus” with the team, and what he thought he did really well and what he would improve upon.

My Thoughts Monday #129- Chris Hays- You are EXACTLY Where YOU Need To Be Mar 29, 2020

“If we all were to start at our dream job, our maximum potential to fulfill that job, those roles and responsibilities, wouldn’t be as as high as it could. If we didn’t work our way up the ladder, and go through the trials and tribulations of a lower level position, being able to work through those mistakes and those failures, and those lessons. Where at those bigger levels, power 5. etc., certain mistakes aren’t as forgivable.”

My Thoughts Monday #128- The Value of Valuing Each Other Mar 23, 2020

“You gotta be willing to value their opinion, you’ve gotta be willing to value what they tell you matters and what doesn’t because when you value them and everyone values each other then a lot of really good things happen and it makes things really roll easy.”
“That’s the most overlooked thing in all of sports. Find you a crew that really wants to work for each other, and really likes each other, and really loves each other, and is willing to do whatever it takes even if that means stepping aside and doing less, or not arguing with someone over something because it’s really not what is most important at the present moment.”

This week I share my final reflection for this season, and that is the importance of finding value with each person in the group. We are really lucky to have a group that truly likes to be around each other, and work with each other. There have been a few things that if the group I am lucky to be part of didn’t get along so well we wouldn’t have been doing, including many of these “routines” that we have developed. It has also has required me to shift my view of how some situations are handled, and made me take a step back and look at things differently has made the entire situation better for, not just me, but everyone else involved.

We are joined by Trinity College’s Bill DeLongis to discuss team building strategies. After a brief run down of how he got up to Trinity Bill dives right into the driving factor behind some of these strategies. This leads us right into how he selects athletes to be in “leadership” roles and how different methods have helped him get athletes to get outside their comfort zone and improve these characteristics. He shares with us quite a few different examples of ‘workouts’ that they use and what the goal is of each. Bill then discusses how he periodizes his workouts around them, and where there are times he may back down because of them, and even why he may not back down at all. We then discuss some of the pros and con’s of the Division III rules, and how that impacts all the work he’s doing with his student athletes. We finish off discussing how he feels coaches can implement more of these types of methods, and expand our role in developing leadership. Make sure to give him a follow on IG @billdelongis for great examples of this.

We are going to try to set up a live talk with a staff or coach daily for the next couple weeks as well. If there’s anyone you want to hear from or if you want to be involved let us know!

Today I have the absolute pleasure of sitting down and discussing the evolution of strength and conditioning with Martin Rooney. Martin is going to dive right into talking about the evolution of our field, but mostly the education of strength coaches, including how sharing, passing on, and empathy being “cool” for a long time. He then shares with us the “stages” of being a strength coach, along with the steps from going from athlete to coach. Next, he dived into a couple of questions to ask ourselves about how we can be better as COACHES for our athletes. This includes a great little tip about rest periods, and how we can better utilize those to better connect with our athletes. We finish off discussing his latest book, “Coach To Coach.” Make sure you hop over to https://www.trainingforwarriors.com/coach-to-coach-book-launch/ to grab your copy, and don’t forget to cash in on the “get one give one” bonus!

My Thoughts Monday #125-The Power of Routine Mar 02, 2020

“At the end of the day, I feel like we can all do al little bit better at making sure that we are there to help support the routines of the athletes that we get to work with, and we are able to build out these routines by teaching them and empowering them because of what we have been able to do in the past.’

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share another self reflection from this season. Over the past 10 months we have really worked to help the athletes develop a routine. This has been a big challenge to me because, in some cases, these routines may not have been what I would have thought would be the “best option”. This has made me really take a step back, listen, and work WITH the athletes to help do what is best for them. This has been, in my opinion, really successful, and the athletes have really bought into it and not only have done better with those routines, but also with the “basics” aspects of the program. Would love to hear how you have helped your athletes build a “routine” and/or any road blocks you, as the coach, had to get past in order to best assist them in getting themselves in the best “place” possible to perform.

He then discusses his role in the NBA, how his past experience helped with the transition, and some things that have really helped him with the players to get the buy in to training. We then run down the rabbit hole of the misnomers of developing basketball players. He then shares with us how the relationship with the players “guy” has evolved and how they work with these people to make sure the guys are in the best place possible.

MY THOUGHTS MONDAY #124- Periodizing From Educating To Supporting Feb 24, 2020

“Sometimes we just got to do what we got to do to make sure they’re doing the right thing, without sitting there being combative and being a distraction from what’s most important this time of year, and that’s winning.”
“Is there a lower hanging fruit to what we are arguing over, is there something simpler that may help just as much that we need to make sure we are doing?”

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a bit of self reflection of some things that we have done this season based on a conversation with my sports medicine practitioner. This conversation revolved around how the time of year should dictate not just what we are doing in training but also how we are educating the athletes, and what battles we are willing to fight. So I wanted to break down how came to the conclusion that we need to periodize our education, and go from education to support, how we have done just that, and where I feel we have been successful with.

Episode 225- Kris Borthwick- Working Above and Below The Demands of the Sport Feb 18, 2020

“I take an approach of working above and below the demands of the sport.”
“We are there to make them a master in their sport.”
“First and foremost, within all of this, it’s an education program before you get into the sets and reps and any of that. It’s making these guys understand that these are the boxes you’ve got to tick.”

I have the pleasure of sitting down and discussing the physical preparation of tennis athletes with Kris Borthwick. After a quick run-down of how Kris got to Winston-Salem he dives right into his unique perspective on energy system development for tennis players. Kris gives us a great overview of what his programming looks like and how he progresses his athletes throughout the year. He then shares with us where the on-court work fits in with the preparation work he prescribes. Kris then shares with us how he is teaching them to find their “gears” so that the athletes are able to work both above and below the outputs of a match to better improve the capacities they need to perform in competition. Next, we discuss different ways he has monitored his athletes to program better, and communicate how practice is actually affecting the players. We finish off discussing the role of nonverbal communication in increasing buy in, and where he hopes to continue to progress with his programming for his athletes. Give him a follow-on IG @krisborthwick to see everything he’s doing with the tennis athlete’s he gets to work with going forward.

MY THOUGHTS MONDAY #123- The Psychological Side of Peaking Feb 17, 2020

“Instilling that confidence comes from positive reinforcement based on the communication you’ve had all season, and plugging and playing, allowing them to auto regulate.”
“Making sure that the athletes know that we believe in them, and really, the best thing they can do is believe in themselves as much as we do because the minute that happens is when the magic happens.”

As we come down to the wire with the “clock” winter sports of swim and dive and indoor track and field there are many athlete’s in their peaking phase. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share where I see the role of the performance staff in the psychological aspect of this phase, and how this is something we work to build from day one so they understand how this fit into our “pay the toll” ideology.

Outside The Rack #26- Bob Alejo Feb 13, 2020

“Context has been lost in several areas in our profession.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 26th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by the Senior Associate Athletics Director for Performance and Student-Athlete Welfare at California State University Northridge, Bob Alejo. Bob, thanks for being with us.
Before we start, who is Bob Alejo?
I’m a veteran strength and conditioning practitioner, who is looking for the best ways to provide the best experience for the athletes we get to work with.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
There’s actually 2. The first was seeing Al Vermeil coach in the early 80’s and watching him coach. The second was in 2005 working with the track team at UC Santa Barbra watching a squat assessment taught him not everyone feels and enjoys training like we do.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
“When are you perfectly ready to train again?”
3) What’s your escape?
I’ve been called a workaholic but I really find relaxation in reading research and talking shop. Otherwise I really enjoy fly fishing, and music and movies. But I wouldn’t call them escapes, that’s my life.

MY THOUGHTS MONDAY #122- Is Changing Volume and Intensity, and the Exercise Necessary? Feb 10, 2020

“If we are constantly changing the exercises are we ever actually getting better at the exercises that we are saying get us better at the sporting exercise?”
“If we are altering the sets and reps and intensity of the exercise, if we are cutting volume and increasing intensity is there really a need to change the exercise? And if we are changing the exercise is there really a need to change the volume and intensity?”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance, the team behind the NordBord, ForceDecks, the GroinBar and HumanTrak. With all their products providing evidence-based solutions to performance professionals so they can get the right information, for the right decision, at the right time.

I have been experimenting with other people programming of late in order to have unique perspectives of the training process to see if there are some things that we can do better. In this process I’ve seen some consistencies across them, and one of them is changing volume, intensity, and mode of exercise all at the same time. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday, I ask why we do that and provide the reasons behind why I feel that this may not be in the best interest of our athletes and their prolonged development.

“When your career is your hobby, sometimes you don’t need an escape.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 25h episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware.

I’m a guy from Fredrick Maryland who went to the Navy and found strength and conditioning. A coach who deeply cares for his athletes and the progression of the profession.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
“Be you”, people have different coaching styles and such, but you need to be true to you and who you are, and be adaptable. “What do you do when what you do well isn’t working for you.”
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
“What are we here for?”
3) What’s your escape?
My family, communication with them is always a refresher. Going to the range, I was a marksmen in the Navy, but “when your career is your hobby sometimes you don’t need an escape.”

Today we are joined by Oklahoma Basketball Assistant Director of Basketball Strength and Performance Scientist Aaron Heishman to discuss his dissertation research looking at fatigue in the sport of basketball. After a quick run-down of how he got to Norman, Aaron dives right into his research, which actually started with his time in Charlottesville. Initially he looked into the training loads effect on jump height. This has led him down the force plate rabbit hole to look at acute changes in performance, readiness, and fatigue from day to day. He is looking at those alongside endocrine responses and perceptual responses. He then shares with us why he uses the jump over some alternatives to test outputs from the athletes. Next, he shares with us another method he’s utilizing to look at the differences between central or peripheral fatigue, and low frequency fatigue or high frequency fatigue. He finishes of sharing with us where his research can be applied with athletes, along with what more work he hopes to do on the topic.

Sometimes social media can lead to some great discussions, and a recent back and forth we had on Twitter on the “medical model” of building a performance department was a great example of that. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share some of the pros and cons of this model, and where I feel we have had some success using a modified version of it.

Outside The Rack #24- Megan Young Jan 30, 2020

“Different sports require different capacities, mentally and physically.”
“If you need to reset and you’re seeking that more then once a month you need to change your environment.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 24th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by the High Performance Director with the Chicago Red Stars Megan Young. Megan, thanks for being with us.
Before we start, who is Megan Young?
Megan Young is a connector.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Different growth points of who am I along the way, starting with football and basketball, but moving more towards soccer that taught her outward presentation doesn’t mean as much as communication.
Understanding who she was as a person and knowing that in and out, not being dependent of where she’s working and what she’s doing professionally.
2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
It would relate to partial physics because we are so close to understanding neutrinos and their effect on our actual aura.
3) What’s your escape?
I have my “corner” where I start my day, but going out to Hawaii and unplugging.

Today we are joined by Nokoa’s Ryan Gallop to discuss the training of Rugby athletes in a high performance model. Ryan starts out diving right into some of the issues and confusion around the views on, not just the sport, but some of the common training models he sees within Rugby. This leads him right into his model, where these ideas came from, and why there needs to be a distinct difference between training American Football and Rugby athletes. He then dives into how he sets up his programming along side the coaching staff, including how these conversations drive KPI’s that they use to make sure that the training is providing the results that the coaches and athletes are actually looking to achieve. He then discusses the role of the “fundamentals” of sprinting and cutting, and how important technique work is, even with athletes at the highest level. This includes a unique way that they plan on implementing a part whole approach to practice warm ups with a team he gets to work with. Make sure to check him out on Instagram @rg1nakoa, and @nakoaperformance for all they’re doing to help athletes get better, and check out www.rugbynation.com and nakoafit.com for more on those actual training programs he has been utilizing.

Today we have an awesome talk with DePaul’s Ryan Nosak on the return to play protocol that he has been working on. After a quick run down of how he got up to Chicago he gets right into thee motivation behind why this has become such a passion of his. He then shares with us what some of the resources that helped him get the ball rolling and how they built their “template” to help their athletes progress as best as possible. He then shares with us some of the evaluations he’s utilizing and where the “check points” are for each block for the athletes, and their impact on progressing the athlete. Ryan dives deep into not just exercise selection, but also the volume and intensity’s of how he programs in these phases, along with “goals” for the athlete to “hit” in those movements. This is a great 15000 foot view of the program that they have built at DePaul with a ton of take-a-ways and ways to better help set up your own protocols. Make sure to give @rnosak a follow on instagram to see more of what they’re doing at DePaul.

Outside The Rack #22- Jake Jensen Jan 16, 2020

“Just be on time, professionals aren’t late.”
“The things that make a team sport athlete great at their competitive event, are not what make a track athlete great at their competitive event.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 22nd episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today.

Before we start, who is Jake Jensen?
I’m a graduate of CVASPS, living in Germany with wife and two kids, with a third on the way in January.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Working at BYU, I showed up “late” to a staff meeting, but how he handled the standard taught me what it a standard actually is and how to be a professional.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
I’d ask a great coach, “In your experience, do you feel like you can actually make an athlete in training?”
3) What’s your escape?
If you ask my wife she’ll say I have too many. I grew up in the mountains, I like to hunt and fish, camping and hiking. I also like to work on engines, I’m rebuilding motorcycles now.

Episode 220- Jeremy Golden- Lessons Learned From Rebuilding At Multiple Stops Jan 14, 2020

“Within a team is a bunch of individuals and you have got to find what works for each individual”
“It’s just about being available, it’s about being a resource to the athletes.”

Today we are joined by Jeremy Golden to discuss the lessons coaches can learn from multiple stops and “team rebuilds”. After a quick run down of how he got to Charlottesville Jeremy shares with us his first experience with rebuilding a program. This included having a team that was not even allowed to train in the weight room, and athletes who didn’t know what a dumbbell was.

Today I have the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Keith Scruggs to discuss the role of real sport science in the development of athletes. After a review of how he got to USC Keith dives right into his dissertation. He shares with. Us not just what he’s looking at but what brought about the questions he’s hoping to find an answer too. We then talk about how this work impacts what they are doing with the athletes he gets to work with now, and what they are seeing with them utilizing this evaluation.

Episode 212- Dana Agar-Newman- The Powers of Variability in Training Nov 19, 2019

“The more complex you make it, the harder it is to see what’s going on.”
“If you can minimize the number of variables in your training program it’s easier to see what’s working and what’s not working.”
“We need some from of measurement to hold ourselves accountable, but also to evaluate our programs. Are they effective? Are we screwing up? Its easy to write a program full of fancy exercises to an athlete and the athlete enjoys it and we all assume that they improve.”
“Just because you can do something don’t necessarily do it, because you might need it in an Olympic year. If you’ve used all your bells and whistles and your tools in your tool belt and that athlete starts to plateau in that Olympic year, well, what do you do next?”

Today we are joined by Dana Agar-Newman to discuss the role of variability in training athletes. After a brief intro Dana jumps right into what drove him to look more at what the role of variability is in training, including where it could be leading to more harm then good. This includes how they evaluated these athletes to make sure their was consistent progress. This includes how he has transferred this philosophy to divers, and how it will impact their taper to build confidence. He then discusses the gas pedal and break that their weekly testing was and how this kept them on task as they progress their training. He then shares with us his thoughts on holding back some “tools” to make sure you have the ability to improve later as well. We finish off discussing where the idea of “four week blocks” came from, and why the idea of long term planning may not be the best way to go.

Today I get the opportunity to sit down with Army’s Patrick Peterson to discuss the development of a high performance model. After a brief into of how he got to West Point, Patrick shares with us how his former positions have lead him down this path and laid the foundation of his research he’s looking into for his PhD. He then shares with us some of the limitations that they work around with the cadets at the academy with their physical preparation. This leads him into what he see’s when the athletes “go back into military mode” and what adjustments to their training are made to take better care of these unique athletes. We finish off discussing how to, as he refers to it, “pull the dogs back” and how the use of visuals helps the athletes and coaches understand the need to make some alterations.

This week’s My Thoughts Monday I share a few things for coaches to keep in mind as we enter this six month season for college basketball. We, to a fault, tend to look to help others before looking after ourselves, please don’t forget that. Let’s not forget, it’s sport, it needs to be fun, enjoy the ride because each one is unique. The final thing to keep in your head is to listen to the athletes. They typically will provide the best input and feedback for you to keep things moving in a positive direction throughout the season.

Today I have the absolute pleaser of sitting down and discussing training and programming principles with Jake Tuura. After a quick run down of how he got to YSU, Jake dives right into how a meeting with his soccer coach has really changed his view on training and driven him to some of the unique methods he implements. He then shares with us how these questions that coaches have asked him have led to some of the alterations he has made to his training programming. He then shares with us where the idea of using isometrics came from, and what he’s seen with improving biological outputs with his athletes. He then discusses where he sees the role of intensity of training, and some reasoning he sees to why low level stimulus leads to great adaptations with his athletes. We finish off discussing the role of training and the mental aspect of performance. Make sure to give him a follow at @jaketuura on IG and http://jackedathlete.com.

I’m using this week’s My Thoughts Monday to answer a question that I’ve been asked by multiple people who I hold in very high regard in relation to why I use myself as the video subject for our videos we are putting out to share what we do in training here, and not the athletes. This is just my personal opinion, and not an agenda I’m trying to push, but I do feel that these are things we need to think about as the landscape of college sports is changing.

My Thoughts Monday #107- Addressing What’s In Your Box Oct 21, 2019

“You have to have the questions that you need, if you’re going to find out the questions that you don’t need, and that starts with addressing the situations that are right at your feet.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance, the team behind the NordBord, ForceDecks, the GroinBar and HumanTrak. With all their products providing evidence-based solutions to performance professionals so they can get the right information, for the right decision, at the right time. Make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.com
This week’s My Thoughts Monday is based off a conversation with my director and a presentation we had at July’s edition of The Seminar. Although we need to look for greater ways to do things, and better questions that we need to ask so we can find better solutions to problems/issues we see/have in our work, there are a lot of things that are right in front of us that we need to address. We like to run to big ticket items and make massive additions to what we are doing without really addressing what is right in front of us. We like to talk about “low hanging fruit” but when there are situations that we need to address we tend to jump right past them and try to go way to the top of the tree.

Outside The Rack #9- Sam Portland, Sportland Training and Fitness Oct 17, 2019

“You’re value has nothing attached to the badge that you wear on your shirt, but it’s how you are and what you do as a person that matters the most.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 9th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware.

He’s not really an academic, he’s a doer who grew up building things and playing sports.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Stepping away from one position and being let go from a second made him look deep into how he wanted to be as a coach and a person.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
“I’d be asking the question of myself, is Sam Portland putting the right things in place to become the man he wants to be?"
3) What’s your escape?
I like being out in nature to escape the noise, and competing because all you can do then is react.

Today I have the absolute pleaser to sit down and talk developing speed with Jake Schuster. After a quick intro Jake dives right into some of the best practices he has seen to actually make people faster. This includes him discussing the roles of motor control, which has become sexy of late, and affecting the force/velocity profile. This leads Jake down the rabbit hole of the role of the force/velocity profile, and how it can be impactful in the physical preparation of their athletes. We then discuss some guidelines for evaluating athletes in these areas and where he has seen errors come from trying to get numbers too early. Next, Jake shares with us some things that he has observed with working with staffs all over the world, and what has made some groups more successful than others. Jake then shares with us some advice on looking at force plate information, including what he feels may be a bit over rated. We finish off with a little self reflection and talking “if I knew then what I know know.” Make sure you give him a follow at @coolhandjakegs on twitter and instagram.

My Thoughts Monday #103- Look At What They CAN Do To Keep Them Moving Forward Sep 23, 2019

“If we can remove the can’t and put the can in to give them a focal point, and a light at the end of the tunnel to train for, I think we are going to see improvements, not just in return to play, but how they return to play.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance, the team behind the NordBord, ForceDecks, the GroinBar and HumanTrak.

A huge take home from this summers edition of The Seminar for me was the idea of talking about what the athlete can do, as opposed to what they can’t do that Sam Gardner referenced in how they program for their athletes. This has changed my outlook on our “retrun to play” programming from the outset of an injury. We can always find something the athlete CAN do, and something they CAN work on to get better. That doesn’t me that we should just throw something hard at them to “make them work”, but can be something that can be focused on a specific aspect of their training that they can improve upon to increase their abilities in other areas of performance.

Outside The Rack #5- Daniel Martinez, Trinity University Sep 19, 2019

“Would we rather be superior in this kind of average world…or would we rather be normal in a superior world?”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 5th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by the Coordinator of Sports Performance Center & Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Trinity University Daniel Martinez. Daniel, thanks for being with us.
Before we start, who is Daniel Martinez?
He’s a mixture of pop culture, research, books, and coaching
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Learning as a coach and being discipled in putting things together, being savage about that, has led to an improvement in a monitoring stand point.
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
How do you get teams and athletes to be vulnerable to embracing the challenge and growth that must occur to truly approve?
3) What’s your escape?
I mountain bike, but San Antonio doesn’t have mountains, so it’s more trail riding.

Episode 203 Zach DeChant- Movement Over Maxes Sep 17, 2019

“Training athlete’s we can’t separate the skill from the physical.”
“Biomechanical efficiency is the most important thing in any sports skill. How efficient is your movement? That’s the most important thing in any sports skill.”
“It can’t be a KPI if that doesn’t effect their actual competitive exercise.”
“Eventually, more and more strength work does not transfer. It just doesn’t transfer. We’re wasting time, and energy. These athlete’s have a finite amount of adaptation energy. So we can’t just keep blowing energy trying to get a bigger front squat, trying to get a bigger deadlift.”

This week we are joined by TCU’s Zach DeChant to discuss technique analysis and skill development in baseball. After a quick intro Zach shares with us the basics behind what his programming is, how it progresses, and how this lead him to write his book, “Movement Over Maxes”. He then shares with us how he looks at Dr. Bondarchuck’s classification of exercises, how this leads his decision making and progressions, and how he’s started to look for better ways to identify what actually matters in developing his pitchers vs his hitters. Next, Zach shares with us what he’s actually looking at, and how he tests, and retests his athletes. We finish off talking about the evolution of training with baseball players that he has seen in his tenure at TCU and his book Movement Over Maxes. Make sure to give him a follow on Instagram and Twitter at @zachdechant.

My Thoughts Monday #102- Serving Athlete’s Doesn’t Happen When You Hog The Spot Light Sep 16, 2019

“What are you doing to help your athletes, not just for right now, not just for that lift, not just for that sprint, or that jump. What are you doing to help teach them to have the proper mind set in situations?”
“No one has ever been served by the person in the spotlight.”

In today’s day and age of sport performance has brought two different schools of actions, and Mark Stevenson addressed this when he asked us “are you a cheerleader or a mind-setter?” This question is one that we need to give a lot more thought because the actions of the few impact the many when it comes how people view what coaches in our position are and act like.

Today I have the pleasure of FINALLY getting to sit down and talk with Darren Roberts about building a culture and a community in the performance realm. After a brief run down of how he got to where he is, Darren dives into the world of action sports, their uniqueness, and how he has developed how he works with these men and women. This includes the role of Mario Cart, memorabilia, and Nerf Guns to help bring the training and rehab world to the world the athlete’s live in. We finish off discussing the role of autonomy and how he evolved more towards leaning on the athlete to have more ownership of the process to improve their development.

My Thoughts Monday #101- Your Metrics Actually Need To Matter Sep 09, 2019

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share a few take homes from Nate Brookreson's KILLER talk from The 2019 Seminar. Nate shared with us a case study in return to play with a student athlete, and his talk had a huge plot twist in the end, but there are a few huge take homes from his talk. The first of which is, as Dan John said, "keep the plan the plan," but be ready to deviate and make alterations. The second is that your metrics need to matter, and when you take them to drive decisions you need to keep taking them, whether you think they’re going to tell you what you want them to or not. My final take away was that it’s not about you, so stay humble and know that we can all be better. Our job is about the athletes, and the field is bigger than each of us so kudos to Nate for being so open and bringing a fantastic talk!

My Thoughts Monday #100- Rehearsal and Real Juice, Not Working Out And Making Noise Sep 02, 2019

Changing my thought process from training to rehearsal is something I took from Jim Radcliffe’s talk at The Seminar, but wasn’t the biggest take away. Being able to watch one of the best ever to do it communicate with such passion and intensity showed me what “the juice” actually is, isn’t, and how we SHOULD act as performance professionals.

Episode 200- Jonas Dodoo- Projection, Reactivity, and Switching Aug 27, 2019

“The things that matter are always going to come down to movement efficiency.”
“It all comes down to your body’s ability to project.”
“Have you organized your body, your center of mass, and actually the timing of firing to make sure you go in that direction.”
“We want it to be complicated. We can’t believe that running very fast is simple because when we try to do it as individuals we realize how difficult it can be, but everyone can get faster. Not everyone can be fast, everyone can get faster.”

Today we are joined by Jonas Dodoo to discuss training transfer if relation to speed development. After a brief intro Jonas dives right into what he sees that matters when it comes developing movement skills with athlete. This includes his idea of projection, reactivity, and switching, and the role of the weight room in assisting these three aspects of movement. This leads him to discussing the idea of transducing force as opposed to absorbing force. Next, Jonas talks about how this fits into the rehab world, and how it impacts how he works with these injured athletes to assist them to return back to competition. Jonas then runs down the rabbit hole of coaching and communication, and why he feels he has had some success within those subsets of our field. We then discuss the mental aspect of training speed, and where Jonas sees some limitations to the thoughts on this that are very prevalent in high level sport. Make sure it give him a follow on Twitter: @eatsleeptrain and Instagram: @eatsleeptrain_.

My Thoughts Monday #99- Make The Performance Triangle of Sleep, Training, and Nutrition an Equilateral One Aug 26, 2019

“We need to make this triangle with three points. One point is sleep, one point is training, and one point is their training, and we need to make that triangle as equilateral as possible.”

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a review of a huge take home from Cheryl Zonkowski’s talk. She discussed how nutrition and training don’t matter much if you’re athlete’s aren’t sleeping. This really spurred me to change how I look at those three. In the past I’ve looked at them as three individual entities, but if we look at them as the same triangle we can now look at which one is negatively impacting the other, or where we are putting in the most energy and where we can do better by the athlete. Although we may have some limitations, it’s partly our job to make this triangle as equilateral as possible through better education, and by leading the athlete’s to make better decisions to improve those aspects

Episode 199- Cam Josse- Reverse Engineering The Entire Game Aug 20, 2019

“Instead of giving them a bunch of coaching cues at first, give them the principle of the idea first and work backwards from there.”
“The what, then follows, the why”
“Everybody says work backward from the game, but not everyone has a road map to do that.”

Today we are joined by Cam Josse to discuss with us programming and how to reverse engineer an entire sport to develop athletes. Cam starts out by discussing with us how the voyage from reading a book to writing a book with Fergus Connolly has changed his outlook on training. This leads him directly into the idea of reverse engineering the sport, what that means to the principles of his training program, and where are some mistakes that he has observed some coaches making with this. He includes how teaching them the tactics and the idea’s of creating and constraining space has changed not just how he teaches his athletes movement skills, but has improved how his athlete’s understand what they’re trying to get them to do. Cam then talks about the cognitive and psychological aspects of training, and how that can be a huge factor in the transfer of training to competition.

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is one of my take aways from Sam Gardner’s awesome talk at The Seminar on Paralympic Sport. Sam’s last slide is one that was tweeted out and put all over instagram, and it something to the point of: some people would love to have your bad days. This is something that is all to true, and not just in the comparison to the athletes he gets to work with and able bodied people. This includes how our athletes may be seeing the world and should make you think about how you listen and talk with them.

Dr. Charlie Weingroff gave a presentation at The 2019 Edition of The Seminar was one of the best talks we have ever had. I feel that one huge take home that people missed from this talk is the message he started his talk with, and that revolved around people asking for help, but not listening. To me, this demonstrates a simple part of human nature, and that is searching for confirmation of what we are doing over criticism or corrections.

My Thoughts Monday #96- Coaches and Gadgets Are Not Psychics Aug 05, 2019

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share my opinion of topic that has been in the news of late, and that is using a device to predict and eliminate injuries. Preventing injuries and predicting outcomes to competition are things that have been a sexy topic of late, but may be unattainable with the human impact on games. We as a vocation need to be careful with where we attach ourselves and how we address these ideas because when things go south we may be setting ourselves up for our demise.

Episode 196- Henry Barrera, Liberty University- Filters and Frame Work Jul 30, 2019

“If I’m only looking at a problem one way, there’s only one solution.”
“What you do everyday is more important than what you do once in a while.”
“When people act authentically and transparently crazy things happen.”
“We don’t base your maturity on your age, we base it on your ownership of responsibility.”
Today we are joined by Liberty University’s Director of Olympic Sports, Henry Barrera to discuss how his building blocks to his programming and department. This idea of filters and frame work have been how Henry has challenged himself to continue to evolve by increasing the ways he is able to evaluate what he’s doing.

Episode 195- Dr. Meeta Singh- How Can You Help Better Sleep For Your Athletes? Jul 23, 2019

“Peak performance really is an output of a well rested brain and body.”
Dr. Meeta Singh joins us to discuss the role and nuances of sleep in athletic performance in this weeks edition of The Podcast. After a brief intro, Dr. Singh breaks down exactly what sleep is by definition, and how we can quantify it to help our athletes with it. This includes the role of naps, how athlete’s can utilize them to improve performance, and some negative impacts they can have. She then runs down the rabbit hole of a student’s social life and some “party favors” and how they can inhibit sleep and decrease it’s potency. This leads her down the road of sleep monitors, how effective they are (or aren’t) and what a lack of sleep can do to performance. Make sure to give her a follow on Twitter: @athletesleepmd

My Thoughts Monday #94- Jay DeMayo- Transfer of Training Is Not A Myth Jul 22, 2019

“While you increase their ability to perform you perform, you then will decrease their likelihood of injury because you've put them in situations where they are going to be stressed similarly to not just practice, but competition.”
There has been an uptick in the number of people discussing the role of the weight room in athletic development of late. This is awesome because it’s driving some really good conversation, but also some really gross click bait when it comes to people putting out some content. In this weeks My Thought’s Monday I share with you some examples of people who are doing a great job of displaying this and how we can use what they’re doing as a driver to how we can be better in our programming, progressions, and outcomes associated with each.

Jim LaValle joins us today to share how he looks to improve nutrition and health to improve performance. After a brief run down of his background Jim drives right into how nutritional issues are leading to a majority of the problems athletes have, including shortening their careers. He then shares with us some ways he is looking at blood with athletes in a different manner than “general population” to help figure out what is best to provide nutritionally or supplementally with athletes including a in depth break down of how cortisol affects athletes including some misconceptions of it. We then discuss the role of stress management and some pros and cons of modern methods used to measure stress. He then discusses adapatogens, and how many of them have been used for a very long time, because they work. Jim then discusses methods used to get these nutrients and adaptogens into the system, including the future of delivery systems for athletes and limitations to the ones that we have now. Jim then runs down the rabbit hole of how helping athletes nutrition has helped improve their health, improved performance, and taken better care of them when they retire so they feel better and live better lives. We finish off talking about the role of accountability with the athlete in this whole situation, and at the end of the day they’re the ones that have to make the decisions and fix the issues at the end of the day.

A few weeks ago I was challenged to push myself past my limits with training for the first time in a long time. This really resparked my “love” for training, and got me thinking about why I got into this. This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a discussion about why I got into this, and why challenging ourselves in training from time to time may be what we all need to help keep that “spark” that got the fire started.

Today I get the pleasure of sitting down and discussing in season training in the National Hockey League with the San Jose Sharks Mike Potenza. After a quick rundown of how he got to the league and the Sharks we start diving right into the evolution of his in season training program. Mike has evolved it to a year long developmental model, and he shares how this program evolved and with what their focuses are and how he structures his training blocks. Next, Mike discusses how they evaluate the athletes, how often they evaluate them, and who gets access to the information to make sure the athletes are moving the the right direction. This leads him into how the warm up he uses with his guys is the backbone of all of their training where they check a lot of boxes to make sure the guys are best prepped and take care of. With all the travel in the western conference, Mike then discusses what’s involved in making sure the guys are good to go with all the travel and issues usually associated with it. Mike finishes off by sharing with us where the most important parts of nutrition and recovery he sees with todays athletes.

As a strength and conditioning coach we are in a support role, but all to often when we are questioned we get quite defensive.

After a quick catch up with Doc, Chris gets right into some of the strategies he has had some good success with, and the reasons he feels they were successful. He then is open enough to share with us some of the areas and situations where he has had issues with different portions of the “science” area of athletics, including how he found his role and position in the department in Lexington and the steps he took to get there. These four values are what drive his direction at UK. These values have changed how they assess the athletes, develop programs, monitor the process, and communicate through out the department. Included in this is an awesome way they profile their football players to make sure progress is made and increases buy in. Dr. Morris finishes off by sharing some strategies they are utilizing at UK to communicate the data with athletes that is becoming very successful to help push improve performance.

Today we are joined by Steffan Jones to discuss the actual role of training when it comes to improving performance of fast bowlers. After a quick run down of how how he got where he is, including how his training as an athlete has driven him forward to some of his thoughts today, we dive right into what he seeing when it comes to improving bowling velocity.

This leads him into how he feels coaches need to be evaluated, and what his KPI is for his bowlers, and where he see’s in game data driving his training for his athletes. We finish off discussing the role of aerobic work, and why it has stood the test of time. Make sure to give him a follow on IG @steffanjones105 and check out his site https://cricketstrength.com!

This weeks My Thoughts Monday was sparked by a run in with a person at Whole Foods during my typical Saturday “decompress” routine that wasn’t the best. It got me thinking about how we monitor our athletes and how we look at those questions or technology for the answers as to how they are and how we should handle them, but like Anthony Donskov said “context is king.” We jump to conclusions all too often about the athletes mood and effort, but maybe there is some underlying factor to that behavior and how can we reach them better because of this?

“If I see anything that closely resembles the game in a way that it will improve performance or improve the likelihood of keeping guys healthy then we’re definitely going to try to implement it.”
“If 10 out of 10 hated it and I don’t think it’s a huge improvement, and I can do something else, then I’ll do something else if it’s going to give you the same results.”

Episode 187- Nick Grantham- Standing Shoulder To Shoulder With The Athlete May 28, 2019

“You’ve got to historically where that sport has come from.”
“Once I realized that there’s only four weird groups of people that like to lift for the sake of lifting, that was a big change in the way I coached.”
“The athletes actually often know far more about what they need and how to get themselves in shape and how to keep themselves motivated, so, that two way street, listening, is really important.”
“They can spot when you’ve not been in their world a mile off, and that instantly reduces that engagement.”

We are joined by Nick Grantham to discuss connecting with athletes in different sports and cultures in this weeks edition of The Podcast. After a run down as to how he has gotten to where he is today Nick dives right down the rabbit hole of connecting with athletes across multiple sports, including not just the sports but connecting with athletes of different cultures and backgrounds. This includes the idea of “positive pollution” and how that not only impacted how he works with his athletes, but his programming as well. Nick shares a great number of ways that he feels he has improved as a practitioner by working more with the athletes as opposed to dictating what the athlete is doing. He then shares with us how not just wearing hats, but also changing your language and direction is super important to increase how the athletes react to training.

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share one of the major changes we have made in order to, in our opinion, provide better for the guys not only during the season, but to better set them up to do better in our season long developmental plan. This includes our three progressions for our “primary” lower body exercises and what’s driving our programming for our upper body training with the team. Would love some input and feedback on this set up and the overall idea behind it.

I’ve witnessed an uptick in the amount of people bringing to light the issues that are present in the Strength and Conditioning world on social media. While it’s important to point out where corrections need to be made, not providing ideas or directions to move forward may not truly help improve the situation at hand. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I give credit to some people who are leading by example and discuss where I’m seeing some disconnect when it comes to finding solutions to issues at hand.

Episode 185- Anthony Donskov- Respect The Context May 14, 2019

“Respect the context because everybody works in a different environment.”
 “I want our advanced level athletes and our pros to know their DNA is on their program, that’s important to me.”
“Our programs are temporary hypotheses, and the goal is not to defend them, the goal is to try and find problems with them, and you can’t find problems if you don’t measure things.”

Another part of “The Learning Season” is summer internships. These have been things that some young coaches have had many questions on the practices of. While those may not be changing, in this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share some examples of how you can be more successful as an intern to not improve your experience but also assist the staff to improve that you’re work for, thus increasing what future investment they’ll make in you as a coach.

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a reflection of Chris Hays first year at Copin State. Chris discusses with us the idea of “whatever it takes” when it comes to our profession. We have to wear many hats in the field, depending on the size of your department you may have more or less than some, but we have all had to go a bit “outside the spectrum” of strength and conditioning. Chris shares with us how this idea of “whatever it takes” to help his student athletes to put them in the best possible position, not just while at the institution we work at, but in life.

Today I have the pleasure of discussing training with the Buffalo Bills Assistant Strength Coach Will Greenberg. After a quick review of his background Will gets into what he has taken from his three unique mentors and how that has impacted him as a professional, not just in training, but managerially with players as well. This leads us into how each of his stops, and different sports, has impacted his work with The Bills. We then discuss how they handle their players in the off season, including how they “sell” what they do and what “standards” they have when they return. We finish off discussing the idea of how structure governs function, both with the athlete in their performance, and the team as a whole with their culture.

Episode 180- Dr. Sean Maloney, Chris Bishop, and Dr. Anthony Turner- Asymmetries, Good Bad or Indifferent? Apr 09, 2019

“The best way to think about an asymmetry is your weaker limb has a bigger window of opportunity for you to develop and get stronger.”
“Dominance is task specific”
“When you do things out of the ordinary that’s when these imbalances can come out and grab you.”
“Good quality training will naturally reduce asymmetries.”

Today we have an awesome round table with Dr. Sean Maloney, Chris Bishop, and Dr. Anthony Turner to discuss asymmetries and the role of research in where they fit in sport training. After a brief introduction we start out with Chris’s research (he’s getting his PhD now) including the what’s, why’s, and how’s he’s looking at with asymmetries in athletes. This runs us right into what Dr. Maloney has seen with his research and what he’s seeing in the gym along side it with training the athletes he gets to work with. Dr. Turner then discusses with us the statistical anomalies that occur with these asymmetries and how strength capacity is so important in looking at the difference in the limbs. We also discuss the role of functional adaptations when it comes to asymmetries in athletes, the role of the task in identifying asymmetries, the effects of competition on them, and the role in bilateral and unilateral training.

A week ago I was up at SSI for an awesome education event. During the event was a great round table Q and A, and one question really stuck with me. As coaches, we really like our if P then Q situations and having all our progressions and regressions set. Understanding the idea of minimal effective dose and giving the athlete what they need, not what they can handle, is determined by how prepared the athlete is, how ready the athlete is, and how well you have prepared the athlete. I give my take on this, where I see this confusion coming from and how we can do better with understanding where these “alterations” can come from.

Last week there was a pretty significant backlash to Michigan State Head Men’s Basketball Coach Tom Izzo’s response to an athlete making a mistake. I feel this is something that we, as strength coaches, need to take a look at as we try to progress the profession forward. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss where I see as something that we need to take note of, why it could have a huge impact on our progress as a profession, and what we need to consider in these heated situations.

Episode 178- Dr. Nicole Surdyka- The Return To Play Continuum Mar 26, 2019

“Return to sport should not be seen as this one day, it’s more of a continuum, a sliding scale.”
“If we get them back to where they were preinjury, we are just putting them back into a state in which they were able to get injured”
“There’s always a way to get them in the weight room earlier.”

Today we are joined by Dr. Nicole Surdyka to discus ACL injuries. After a brief introduction, Dr. Surdyka get’s right into decisions and questions related to knee surgery. This leads right down the rabbit hole of deconditioning, and how evaluations in return to play can be “off” because of this. She then touches upon the importance of confidence and psychology is in the rehab process. We finish off with a discussion on reintroducing the athlete to training and how we can move forward by moving backwards sometimes.

As we enter this transition period of the year, being where many basketball teams are somewhere between the post season and off season, we need to make sure that we look at how we are handling the athletes we get to work with. The “Grind” as so many like to call it can be a good thing, the idea of wanting to work more and put in the effort can be a good thing, BUT if we just blindly work, and keep going and going and “GRINDING” are we actually pushing people in a proper direction and moving them forward, or are we just “GRINDING” their knees. Today I share my thoughts on this and where I feel like we can help them “GRIND” smarter, while still doing the work they want to.

Today we are joined by the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach from the St. Louis Blues Eric Renaghan to discuss the rebuild process in professional hockey. The discussion starts out with Eric sharing with us some of methods that they have used to help build the culture that the new staff is hoping to instill within the team, including some forms of monitoring they’re using. This leads us to discussing how these factors are affecting what they’re doing with the guys in the second half of the season in order to help them be ready for a playoff push. Eric then shares with us the organizational set up that teams in the NHL have, and how that impacts the prescription of training throughout the year, along with how athletes at different levels (juniors, college, AHL, NHL) need to be handled differently not just because of age, but also what facilities they have access too. Eric then dives down the rabbit hole of how he has built KPI’s based on measurements that he has seen, and what correlated with athletes who have high rankings on specific game statistics that tend to show success at a specific position.

“No matter what information is out there, it’s the human that’s important.”

Sport Specific Training! If you are a strength and conditioning coach you either just smiled or cringed or facepalmed yourself. This polarizing word is something that has a bunch of people shook because we don’t have a definition for it, and there is some confusion with other terms that people think may be synonymous, when in-fact they may not be.

“What people really do is they only argue to maintain their belief system.”

In this weeks episode of The Podcast I get the opportunity to sit down and talk about the idea of sport specific training with Mike Boyle. This has been a bit of a “hot topic” on his instagram based off his 1:00 monologues that he is doing daily. Coach Boyle talks about what he see’s sports specific training is and what his problem is with it, where he sees training and how his needs analysis drives his training, and the idea of the “90%” of training. Mike then discusses where he sees the role of education as a coach and where the idea of looking for people who do the exact opposite of what you do, or at least don’t think similarly to you, and reevaluate some of your thinking. We finish off talking about what are some things that he has changed of late when it comes to “filling buckets” and how he sees sprinting and speed work now.

You see it all the time, coaches on social media talking about training and how “keeping it simple works.” While at times this may be correct, but there are many times where improving an athlete’s physical performance is anything but simple. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss why I feel that this “self talk” that gets shared within our departments could be holding us as a profession back a bit.

We also talk about his presentation in The Strength Coach Network, and how problem solving is what he’s always been looking to do, and how leadership fits into that. We finish out talking about his involvement as a presenter for The 2019 Seminar.

This weeks episode of The Podcast we are joined by Chris Tombs to discuss the role of education in coaching. Chris starts out by sharing with us his international voyage in coaching within rugby from England, Wales, to The US, and back to GB going from coaching to lecturing and mentoring. He then shares with us how he feels his experience as a coach has a positive impact on educating future coaches, as opposed to the typical academic model we see today. This includes the ability to be able to evolve and adapt on the fly to make sure that, not only the players are getting better, but you’re making sure they’re available for all competitions. We then get into discussing how he worked with athletes to make behavioral changes when it comes to nutrition and recovery ideas to help them be better, and at times, how he has “tricked” them into having better choices. We finish off discussing where he sees the direction of academia in training coaches going forward in the future.

This week, I share my thoughts on the whole Chelsea not lifting weights because they don’t have weights on them when they play. I think we, as coaches, are missing the forest though the trees when we start to have arguments on this and need to focus less on what these great athletes are doing now, and more on what they were doing to become what they are today.

Today we are joined by Lee Taft for a fantastic discussion on training movement with athletes. Lee dives right into it giving us his background into how he got into coaching and how he evolved his philosophies and methods of training. This includes how he looks at movements through a biomechanics lens, and idea’s he has “updated” along the way. He also shares with us some issues that he sees with some of the “traditional” methods being used to teach basketball players how to guard their opponents. He then dives down the rabbit hole of “strength”, how the tendons play a role in movement, and how displacement of the pelvis is key. We then touch upon the idea of having a model of what you want movements to look like and how that’s the driving factor behind the general set up for training, and how to modify those models based on different sports, including how the addition of implements in sports changes how they are taught to move.

Today’s episode of The Podcast is an Instagram Live discussion I had with my good friend Matt Johnson to catch up sense his move from our nations capital out to Indianapolis to work with the Butler Bulldogs. Matt shares with us how the process is going, and the steps he’s taken with his players to progress forward. This starts with him discussing his initial meeting and how they’re “building” what he has planed for the team. He then shares with us his relationship with the coaching staff and how that is driving him to be better for this squad, and how he started to implement his programming with the guys. This includes evaluations and testing, plus the progressions he used with his guys and how it’s impacted them physically and mentally. We answer some questions and answers on programming, culture building, speed work, building the overhead strength required for basketball, accommodating resistance with basketball players, sport specific exercises for basketball, and then end the discussion talking about how we see ourselves in the profession and our roles in (hopefully) bettering it for all the coaches now and coaches of the future.

One of those similarities is staying out of that “middle ground” and Derek shares with us what that is, where it fits, and why it gets in the way with some aspects of training.

My Thoughts Monday #47, Jay DeMayo-Teach The Staff To Serve The Players Sep 03, 2018

“If we are going to provide better for their student athletes, we need to educate them more so they understand what we are doing because if they aren’t the key person in our corner, then the athletes will never buy into what we are doing.”

Today’s My Thoughts Monday is based on a discussion I had this week with our coaching staff about the use (or lack there of) of cold water immersion with our student athletes in the non competitive season. I had made the mistake of not communicating the why’s and how’s to what we had planned and why we wanted to limit the use of these modalities.

In today’s edition of The Podcast I get the pleasure of sitting down and discussing FRC with Utah State’s Joey Bergles (@joeybergles on IG). After a quick intro Joey dives right into the meat and potatoes about Functional Range Conditioning. Joey shares with us what it is, how he got into it, and how they’ve gotten their guys to really buy into implementing it regularly. We dive down the rabbit hole of how they evaluate athletes, and how this leads to not just individualization in their programming, but how it drives work for the entire team as a whole. This is a topic that I’ve been very intrigued about for a long time, and I think that this realm of thinking has legs when it comes to helping us improve performance and the durability of our athletes.

My Thoughts Monday #46, Jay DeMayo-Sharing Is Caring Aug 27, 2018

“What I care about is you are willing to share and that you’re putting out what you’re doing, how you’re doing it, and why you’re moving in the direction you’re moving in with your exercises.”

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is based around the idea of sharing ideas and what we are doing. I was recently contacted by a coach who has been putting some progressions out on social media asking for thoughts on the progressions. This leads to a rant on why we need to share and how we need to get past the idea of people who post things “aren’t real coaches”.

Ryan Banta discusses coaching with us in this weeks edition of The Podcast. After Ryan gives us a brief overview of his voyage to this point Ryan shares with us how he got to the point of putting together the 5 year project of his book, Sprinter’s Compenduim. Having put together a few books where people contribute to the project has made me second guess quite a bit of what I do, and Ryan shares with us what putting this project together has taught him and changed him as a practitioner. This leads us into a discussion of training, how he looks at the athlete to make decisions as to how to “train” them in a volume sense, along with the roll he sees the weight room playing. Next Ryan shares with us how he separates and evaluates his athletes into groups to progress them in all their training. We finish off talking about the book, who the authors are, and some of the connections he has to them and their impact on the project.

He has seen the evolution of both realms (boxing and S and C) from the front lines as a boxing coach, S and C coach, and a high school football coach, and really how this is a world of “have’s and have nots”. He then shares with us how he has trained fighters, and how he now selects the coaches he has work with his fighters.

My Thoughts Monday #39-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Monitor to Help Training First Jul 16, 2018

“What I did wrong was how I communicated that, and it was basically taken as we can never do X and Y, so yeah, that was a screw up, and I did that wrong, and it was part of the downfall for it. I think that if we would have kept it to the monitoring heart rate for caloric expenditure to make sure that these guys didn’t wither away in season I think we’d still be doing it, and it’s something that we would have been able to expand upon in a greater positive sense and allow it to continue to move forward, but because I stepped out of my lane and messed it up. I screwed the pooch and ruined it.”

Episode 141-Martin Bingisser, HMMR Media- From The Circle to The Pitch and Back Jul 10, 2018

“That’s the one thing that’s the killer, if you’re athletes get injured it’s not just one step back it’s two-three steps back. A lot of times that can come from overloading athletes or putting to much emphasis on max strength. I think max strength plays a role, it plays a role in every sport, but it’s not that difficult to get, especially over the long term.”
Today I have to pleasure of talking training with Martin Bingisser. After a brief intro Martin shares with us his latest project, and that’s training Rugby athletes. We start out discussing his role with the club and some unique challenges it provides. He then shares with us how his work with Bondarchuck impacts how he’s looking at the training, where Anatoliy’s “stuff” fits and where there are challenges in connecting those dots in team sports. Martin then dives into his ideas as it relates to injury prevention/reduction and how important that is in development. Martin then flips the script and talks about how his work in rugby has impacted him as a throws coach and lessons he’s brought back to the circle, and where autonomy with his athletes has helped in both realms. We then talk about his book, the motivation behind it, and what people can expect when they pick it up, and how his stuff at HMMR has changed as he has evolved as a coach. We finish off with a back and fourth on how the podcasts have challenged us to be better. Make sure you check out his site: http://hmmrmedia.com and pick up a copy of his book at the link here: http://www.hmmrmedia.com/store/books/training-talk-conversations-with-a-dozen-master-coaches/

My Thoughts Monday #38-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Let’s Not Make Our Pyramids Trapezoids Jul 09, 2018

“What we don’t know is if building a bigger base is if building a bigger base is actually going to allow the pyramid to be higher, or if all we’re doing is building a bigger base and making it go from a triangle or a pyramid, to a trapezoid.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by GymAware, the leading tool to measure your athlete’s weight room performance. Learn more about “The Rolls Royce” of bar velocity monitoring here: https://kinetic.com.au/gymaware.html
In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share a conversation we recently had with our interns about planning and building form the general to the specific. For as long as I’ve been coaching we have looked at it as a triangle or pyramid where we talk about building the base to be able to have a taller peak where the specific occurs. We also, as a profession, discuss how we typically don’t touch the specific because that’s the game. So with that in mind I share an idea we have about how we can look at “specific” slightly differently, and hopefully drive our training a bit better and smoother.

Episode 140-Matt VanDyke, University of Texas- Actually Applying Sport Science Jul 03, 2018

“When I talk with people, with other strength staffs, athletic training, or nutrition, it’s planting little seeds of discussion to kind of grow upon and then we start to tie a lot of our systems in based on their approach to what the end goal is.”
Today we are joined by University of Texas, Associate Director of Applied Sports Science, Matt VanDyke. After an overview of where he’s been, his writings, and how he got to Texas Matt dives into how how relationships have driven him in both avenues, both coaching and the sport science realm. We then discuss the role of us as coaches to the profession, and how sharing info is so important to drive us forward. Matt then discusses the challenge the change of positions, from coaching to the applied sport science side, has been and how the transition from doing it all to just forcing on one is allowing him to dive deeper into things. Matt then shares with us some of the data that he’s looking at and how it’s contributing to the training programs for the football players at Texas. We finish off discussing how his time at Denver helped prep him for Texas, and some lessons he’s learned as mistakes at the spots where he’s had to hit the ground running.

Episode 189 My Thoughts Monday #37-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Readiness, or Trainability? What’s Our Role? Jul 02, 2018

“If we were looking at their ability to be trained, their trainability, their actual ability to be able to handle and adapt to stress at that present moment. Then is there the possibility that MAYBE their readiness would be at a better state when you need it to be?”

Episode 139-Loren Landow, Denver Bronco’s and Landow Performance- The 20 Second Move Jun 26, 2018

“You have to be fluid and you have to ask a lot of really good questions.” 
Today we are joined by Denver Broncos strength coach and Landow Performance Loren Landow. After a quick run down of how Loren got to the Bronco’s we get into the transition from the private sector and combine prep to working in The National Football League, what new challenges he sees and what parts are similar. Next, Loren shares with us some of the work he’s done with Mixed Martial Artists, and discusses his role in developing those athletes and some extremely unique obstacles that come with working with high level fighters. This leads into a really interesting step by step progression of how Loren’s work monitoring the training loads and readiness of his athletes has evolved. We finish off discussing how he sets his groups based on KPI’s with the Broncos and what characteristics he’s looking for in different groups.

My Thoughts Monday #36-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond-An Example of Podcasts Helping Me With My Athletes Jun 25, 2018

“I think that having that chip on your shoulder, especially at our level, when you’re not getting McDonalds All-Americans, when you’re not getting the 4 star, 5 star guys that are automatically going to have some sort of pro career that need to work that need to develop that need to have some sort of kick in the butt at times to to get to where they need to go.”

Episode 138-Justin Kavanaugh, Sport and Speed Institute- Sniffing Out The B.S. Jun 19, 2018

“I’m a big believer in intent matters the most. We aren’t judged on our intent, we are judged on our actions, but the intention is what’s going to maintain the relationship for a long period of time. Because even if, for some reason, you’re working with somebody and it doesn’t work out, if your intention was only to help or your intention was always positive then you’ll always be able to fall back on the fact that you did right by them. Maybe the end result wasn’t what you wanted but at the end of the day you didn’t screw somebody over.” 
Today we are joined by The Sport and Speed Institute’s Justin Kavanaugh to talk training, coaching, business, and filtering through the noise. After a brief intro Coach Kav breaks down how he’s built his filter and how it all started with his family and the brutal honesty of his parents, and has led to how he looks at training, relationships, and business. The conversation then leads to educating yourself and your staff and how being invested in that is exceptionally important to how you handle your athletes. We then discuss what leads to winning, and what he sees as the most important factors in winning. We then get into training and some things that he does to build buy in with athletes ranging from high school to the pros.

My Thoughts Monday #35-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond-Stay Off Other People’s Lawns Jun 18, 2018

“We gotta remember is there’s a chance, that that person who’s owning or running or working at that business, that gym or whatever they train people out of, they have to sell that to that kid. So, we need to understand that we need to be more open to talk to those people so we know the language they were speaking with those kids before they came to us.”

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss a situation that we recently had a run in with. When we are looking at the differences between the private sector (business people) and the public sector (colleges-pros-high schools) there is a a bit of tension because some people over step their bounds when making statements about what someone in the other part of the field does, and once you start to come off as threatening people grow animosity towards that part of the profession. The moral of this story is, stay off each others lawn and play nice.

Episode 137-Nate Harvey, EliteFTS- Paying Our Dues To Get Paid What? Jun 12, 2018

“From the top down it’s messed up, I mean, what other profession do you need to have a masters degree and 2 years experience to start out at 12,000 a year.” 
Today we are joined by Nate Harvey of EliteFTS.com to talk about training. Nate starts out by sharing with us how he got into training at a young age, and how EliteFTS had an impact on him as an athlete, and how his voyage as a coach has led him to working for EliteFTS. We then discuss the learning experiences he has had as a coach and the importance of asking questions in all of it. This leads him into what he has been contributing, education wise, and why he’s putting things out in the modes he is. We finish off discussing different “issues” that Nate sees in the industry and how we can maybe move forward in a more positive way.

My Thoughts Monday #34-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Staying In Our Professional Lane Jun 11, 2018

“You do need to stay in your lane because traffic always flows better when people aren’t going in and out of lanes, BUT you have to know what’s going on in those other lanes because if they need help in one of those lanes from you, you need to be able to change lanes and move over there to help them.”

Episode 136-Andy McCloy, BCI Sport Performance and Fitness- Culture Can Come Organically Jun 05, 2018

“It’s not like I’m a culture expert, I never set out to develop a cool culture. It just kind of organically happened. Where we have some of the best kids in the world, but we will put them in the same group as kids who are not even close to the same type of athlete as they are, and even in their school they’re not as social intertwined with all the cool stuff going on. I think there’s a unique dynamic there where those kids are able to socially level up. The kids that are studs are put in a position where they have to coach and mentor younger people, it’s just a really cool thing.” 
Today we are joined by BCI Sport Performance and Fitness owner Andy McCloy to talk about the world of training, After a brief introduction Andy starts discussing the role of his facility in the training and development of young athletes, and how their culture has helped develop these kids in ways that have nothing to do with sports training. We then start talking about the role of the private market trainers and where they fit in this world of athlete development in conjunction with the athletes teams staff. This includes ways he has reached out to open up those coaches and develop those relationships. This includes him breaking down how the time of the year and other training/responsibilities with other teams drives decisions to help bridge what they’re doing with what the athlete has going on with other programs and practices. Then, for the second half of the discussion Andy shares with us how he sets up his programming. This includes everything from how they find kids who fit in their program, evaluate their athletes, how those evals dictate progressions and regressions, exercise selection, and how they can easily make daily alterations.

My Thoughts Monday #33-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond-Changing Behavior Is Not A Quick Fix Jun 04, 2018

“When you’re trying to change behavior or something that’s habitual, like eating habits. Eating habits won’t change over night. It’s not like all of a sudden you’re going to talk to an 18-22 year old and you’re going to be like, “alright, so, now you have to get 5 to 7 servings of vegetables every day, OR ELSE, and you’re only going to eat lean protein, OR ELSE. Or else what? Those massive alterations to a habit, to a lifestyle, we all know are consistently unsuccessful. That’s why they’re called eating habits because it’s a habitual type thing.”

Episode 135-Dr.Bryan Mann-Periodization Doesn’t Need An AED May 29, 2018

“If we don’t read the tweets. We don’t read these 140 character things that people are putting out, and we go to the actual original works. We see there’s actual brilliance in there, and if we go with their terminology things start to make sense.” 
Today we are joined by Dr. Bryan Mann to confusion he sees with coaches today. The first thing he discusses is the idea that periodization is dead. Doc breaks down what periodization is and where the confusion is coming form because of vernacular. The main confusion in is what is periodization vs what is programming. Dr. Mann then goes into the role and importance of what the coaches and practitioners who came before us play a role in how we should be looking at all things training because many of the questions we have now, they already answered.

I think that a lot of people look at a lot of things that are put out on social media and then they’ll see a video and they’ll say “oh well that’s all that coach whatever his name or her name is does. He or she just has them do, you know, that one minute video I saw on instagram and that’s everything, or they don’t understand how they got there or they don't understand where they’re going.”

Episode 134-Chris McCormick, Gardner Webb University-Sunshine and Rainbows on Social Media May Be More Clouds and Dirt in Reality May 22, 2018

“A lot of the time, you could win a lot of games and there may not be any impact from strength and conditioning.You might see them one time a week in the in season, but they go undefeated in conference play. OR, we know strength coaches that do an awesome job and then they don’t win a lot of games and they’re not part of a team that wins a lot of games.” 
Today we are joined by former Gardner-Webb University Director of Athletic Performance Chris McCormick to talk about real world issues that he has seen as a director. Chris starts out by sharing with us what issues that we, as a profession, need to bring to the forefront about what we do. This leads right into us talking about culture and how that, and the players personalities, need to dictate training programs as much as the need for actual measurable results. Chris then shares with us how he uses open discussion with athletes and coaches to help impact what and how they program, along with how they can serve “two masters” by taking both of their incite. We finish discussing the connection between running your weight room like a business and athlete monitoring and how they connect in communication with our departments.

My Thoughts Monday #31-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond-What We Say We Do May Corner Us May 21, 2018

“So that would be like saying, ‘Team X last year had 7 ACL injuries, Team X this year only had 2. Does that mean that the strength coach did a better job with this team this year or the team last year? What if the team last year, even though they had more than triple the injuries had a better record, won a championship, went far in the tournament?”

In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share a discussion I had with a coworker on the responsibilities the strength coach carries when it comes to what we are attempting to improve in our athletes. We, as a profession, like to say that we “decrease the risk of injuries”, but today I share why I feel like us saying that is our main objective may put us in a corner when the rubber hits the road when injuries happen?

THROWBACK THURSDAY: VIDEO INTERVIEW WITH 2015 PRESENTER, DR. BEN PETERSON May 17, 2018

Today's Throwback Thursday is an awesome video podcast with 2015 Presenter Dr. Ben Peterson. During our discussion Ben dives into monitoring, ways we can make it more efficient, and the things that he looks at when discussing monitoring with teams. Every talk I get to have with him is always enlightening, so I really hope you all enjoy this as much as I did.

Episode 133-Scott Salwasser- Texas Tech- Prepare The Athlete For Where They Need To Be, Not Where Your Progression Says To Be May 15, 2018

“I think that’s really where our profession is going, is you’ve got to have a grasp of the sport. That’s not to say that general means aren’t important. Just lifting weights, heavy squats, heavy deadlifts. That’s not to say that that’s not important, but I think that now, to be really great you’ve got to have a working knowledge of your sport.” 
Today we are talking about developing movement skills that transfer to sport with the Director of Speed and Power Development at Texas Tech Scott Salwasser. After a brief introduction Scott dives right into it discussing how he separates the team into groups, and gathers knowledge about each position to provide the best carry over possible for his football players. We then dive down the planning rabbit hole and how the uniqueness of the football calendar sets up his programming, and some things that he does differently, why he does it, and where he see’s a major issue with many “traditional models” of speed development when it comes to football. Next, Scott breaks down how he advances agility work with his players, and how important technique and visual acuity is to having carry over to what they are trying to teach their players. We finish off discussing his programming of jumps and plyometrics for his athletes, and what two roles he sees them filling in his program.

My Thoughts Monday #30-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Who’s Fault Is It? May 14, 2018

“Understanding what your specific skill set is and what you can provide for someone is one thing, but if they don’t understand it and they don’t understand: A) what the skill set is, or B) how it can be of value, how is it any way shape or form their fault when they look at it and are like “no I don’t want that” or “this isn’t important”?”

Today I discuss a conversation that we have had in our office of late about who’s fault is it that admin and coaches may not understand what we, as strength coaches, do for our My Thoughts Monday. This seems to be a universal discussion that I have with coaches around the country, that other aspects of the department do not really understand what we are doing, why we are doing it, and what we can be doing better. To that, I ask the simple question, who’s fault is it? I share a couple things that we are starting to do, and how we are going to, hopefully, move forward to help better educate the coaches and administration on what we are able to do in hopes to drive deeper conversations.

Episode 132-Sean Fantuzzi, University of North Dakota- Cover your mouth when you…train? May 08, 2018

“That’s why I preach to the guys as much as I can “go to class, go to study hall” because that kind of stuff it shows coaches that you’re willing to prepare. If you’re willing to prepare for class you’re willing to prepare for practices, and it kind of goes hand and hand.” 
Today we are joined by University of North Dakota’s Assistant Strength Coach Sean Fantuzzi to talk about training, After a brief introduction Sean starts to break down some of the changes that have been made within the training of his athletes at UND and the driving factors behind the directions they’ve started moving. This leads him straight into discussing how coaching staff changes have impacted his work with the Fighting Hawks student athletes. Next, he touches upon a topic that has been quite ready of late, breathing, and it’s importance in his programming along with how he teaches it based on “Oxygen Advantage” and where he implements this idea. This leads right into the state of stress that student athletes are in, things that contribute to it, how he’s looking at it, and how they’re monitoring practice as a result.

My Thoughts Monday #29-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Preparing for What and When? May 07, 2018

“We really pride ourselves as a profession when it comes to finding better ways to do things, better ways to prepare kids, periodizing this that and the other thing, and building the best program we can possibly build. Consistently looking to educate ourselves better to provide better for these kids, but there’s a problem. Right? And that problem, when you’re talking about these fall sports teams is that all to often they train in the spring and they leave for the summer.”

In today’s My Thoughts Monday I discuss some issues with the preparation plans for teams that come in after breaks. This problem was based on a conversation with a coworker where we were going through when injuries seem to occur, and have started to make some assumptions about what could be contributing factors to this. The main conclusion to that conversation though is that we need to find a better way to make sure that they’re prepared with they’re not here, if that’s even possible.

Episode 131: Nate Brookreson, NC State-Developing a Collaborative Environment May 01, 2018

“The thing that I think is the limiting factor in the college environment is this idea of lack of understanding of other domains, and that we have this inability to clarify or define terms.”
NC State’s Nate Brookreson joins us to discuss the model their athletic department is building in Raleigh. He starts out talking about the developing a standard operating procedure in a collaborative group that includes each department including why they have it set, and what the goals of this group is. This brings him to discussing how vital defining terms and roles are, and how that impacts who takes the lead in certain situations. The definition of terms also has a vast impact on training by providing actual goals and directions to go in. Next, he shares with us the role he sees for measurement, where he see’s importance in the data, and what should lead up to collecting and analyzing data. He finishes off giving specific examples of how they have done this at NC State.

My Thoughts Monday #28-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- We Need To Change With The Rules Apr 30, 2018

“I’m saying that I think that based upon where we’re at and what we are looking at here with these new rule changes we’re going to need to be even more so a facilitator when it comes to adapting what we do in order to make sure these kids: A) continue to adapt and improve to the training we are providing, and B) are healthy and able to survive now which really is looking like mid May till the end of March where basketball is the priority.”

Episode 130-Joe Kenn, Carolina Panthers-His Path and Where We, as Coaches, Are Going. Apr 24, 2018

“We talk about all these, don’t start to early in sport specific training, be multi dimensional in your training for sports before you specialize. Really, it’s not different in strength and conditioning. I don’t think any of us, when we first started, necessarily were looking at it from the stand point of being a one sport strength coach. I think we all went into it going int thinking we were going to be the strength coach for a university or a high school or whatever setting. The evolution of what’s occurred is kind of interesting and it’s really changed the dynamics of our field moving forward.”
Today we are joined by the Carolina Panthers Strength Coach Joe Kenn. This is an episode I’ve been hoping to get recorded for a long time because of the huge impact Joe has had on my career. Joe talks us though where his love of the weight room originated, his time at Wake Forest as a player, working in Ft. Lauderdale at Pine Crest prep school, back to Wake as a part time strength coach, 8 and a half years at Boise State, Utah (where The Tier System was validated to him), ASU, Louisville, and The Panthers.
After we finish that Coach Kenn shares with us the three things he feels coaches getting into the game need to consider.
This talk is so full of gems for younger coaches to understand what many of the coaches that they look at as icons went through to get to where they’re hoping to get in this profession.

My Thoughts Monday #27-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- What’s Your Escape? Apr 23, 2018

“Ya know, there were a lot of us who were the dumb guys who did that and thought we were untouchable and unbreakable and that we could grind 5 days like that. Ya know, and pull those legitimate 80-90 hour weeks without stopping. We’ve all done it, it’s cool, especially when you’re young and there’s that pride factor in it. But when you start to get old and frail and a little fat like some of us have having that escape and knowing that there needs to be a time and a place to get away and recharge is going to save you in the long run.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by GymAware, the leading tool to measure your athlete’s weight room performance. Learn more about “The Rolls Royce” of bar velocity monitoring here: https://kinetic.com.au/gymaware.html
In this time of year, as we start to come to the “non countable” hours in college athletics, the topics of recharging and getting away come up quite often. In today’s My Thoughts Monday I talk about the necessity of that being something that we all need to focus more on, that mental escape to allow us to recharge. Share with us and others what you’re doing to “escape” to help spark ideas for other coaches to help improve our mental health of the profession.

Episode 129-Tom Farrow, Arete Performance- Understanding Your Monitoring To Make an Impact Apr 17, 2018

“It all comes back to stimulus adaptation, and it’s just finding that point with who ever you're working with where you can make a difference. What’s the level that they’re competing at, understanding that as deeply as you can, andn then just knowing what tools you have to make that a little bit harder a little bit easier, and just moving from there”
Today we are joined by Tom Farrow to discuss training on multiple levels. Tom starts out breaking down the idea of “cultivating heroes” and how that fits into what they’re doing at Arete Performance. We then discuss some of the differences in training at the multiple levels he works with, and how the demands of competition (7’s vs Richmond) determines how he handles his athletes. Tom then breaks down the difference between the two games (15’s vs 7’s) and what they look at when developing and monitoring each type of athlete. This includes how they set up what they monitor and evaluate with their athlete’s and how they break down each team by individual vs position vs team. Tom then shares with us how he sets up their yearly training plans on each level. This leads straight into Tom breaking down the three factors he believes leads to injury and how he manages those three. We finish off talking about the education work that they’re doing at Arete and how that’s helped them drive education in England.

My Thoughts Monday #26-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Can Your Plan B Be Your Plan A? Apr 16, 2018

“Do you have these secondary and tertiary plans set if you’re not in a specific situation where it can be successful, it can be safe, it’s what the game demands for that student athlete at that present moment. Are those measures being taken care of prior so that you’re not scrambling and losing your mind, or losing a session because you don’t have Plan B prepared?”

Failure
Safety/Weather
Resources
I give specific examples of how we are looking at how we are preparing ourselves incase we need to move to “Plan B”, and how we are hoping this can help move things forward in the same direction we were hoping to move with our Pefect/Dream Plans as “Plan A.”

Episode 128-Dave Tate, EliteFTS.com- The Training and Coaching World Apr 10, 2018

“There’s no modular homes when it comes to strength and conditioning. There’s just to many different interrelated parts that the only ones that we have true control of is what we know, and what we know we don’t know.”
Today we are joined by EliteFTS.com's Dave Tate to discuss training and coaching. Dave starts out discussing how he got into using the dynamic effort method and where there are places that bands and chains can fit with lower level lifters. He then touches upon learning, and the role of finding the why’s in training. Finding a mentor is the next topic he discusses including the role of it, how to find one, and why it’s importance. This leads us directly into discussing living “as if.” Dave uses this quote to act “as if” you are what you want to be, but knowing that there was so much work that lead to people being at the pinnacle of any profession.

My Thoughts Monday #25-Mike Caro, Emory and Henry College- Pushing The Pace to Push Us Forward Apr 09, 2018

“Just because we get accreditation or licensure or something like that passes and it has to be done in order for you to be a collegiate strength coach, well that doesn’t mean it will solve those problems, but I guarantee by sharing our information on how we run things, by looking at how we make due with limited recourses or what we do when we have an abundance of recourses to grow our program. That’s going to make this field go forward a lot better and a lot quicker with a lot more importance than if we were just to wait on i licensure or accreditation or wait for someone else to do it.”

Mike Caro sits down with us to share how he see’s us as coaches can help give back to the field and build the profession. The idea that he discusses is how we should “push the pace.” This is a leading from the front idea when it comes to research and collaborations within your campus, and sharing more information through blogs, video’s, and podcasts. He then brings it full circle to discuss how this idea can help drive the profession forward and increase the professional view of outsiders about our profession.

Episode 127-Mike Rankin, Drexel University—Building Relationships and Athlete’s For Life Apr 03, 2018

“When you talk about Athlete’s For Life you want to have consistency, your’e buying into the people that were providing you that shoulder to lean on and that advice for you to get better while you were here. If it basically recycled every year where was that relationship? How do yo build a relationship in a couple weeks? You don’t.”
Today we are joined by Drexel University’s Mike Rankin discussing relationship building, not just with your athletes but how they’re continuing those relationships when their athlete’s careers end. Mike has developed a program that they call Athlete’s For Life. What this is is a web platform that is a virtual trainer for his former student athletes.

My Thoughts Monday #24- Devan McConnell, UMASS Lowell-Training is Just a Supplement to Your Culture Apr 02, 2018

“I think most of what we do in training is supplements, it’s supplementation.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by GymAware, the leading tool to measure your athlete’s weight room performance. Learn more about “The Rolls Royce” of bar velocity monitoring here: https://kinetic.com.au/gymaware.html
Devan McConnell joins us for another My Thoughts Monday to discuss supplementation. Devan breaks this down as not just the nutritional aspect but uses supplementation as a metaphor to what training actually is. He brings it full circle to where training fits and how it needs to connect with your “culture” and what your “why” is with the programming of your athletes and how they fit together. Devan shares with us how he uses anonymous questionnaires to help drive discussions on the past year leading to the athlete’s having more autonomy to push the program forward.

Episode 126-Sam Portland, Ealing Trailfinders-Looking at Fatigue, and How the Playing Surface Impacts It Mar 27, 2018

“What these variables are telling you is how you’re getting to the end product of that jump height essentially, and I think that’s where were we will find with the study, across different positions of rugby, especially sense it carters for a lot of different physical characteristics, that you’ll see how that will change from athlete to athlete.”
Today we are joined by Ealing Trailfinders’ Sam Portland discussing his research on how playing surfaces impact fatigue in his rugby players. After a quick intro, Sam starts right in sharing with us the what’s and why’s he’s looking at with his research. Sam breaks down why he’s looking at jumps on a force plate, what metrics they’re examining, and why he has so much interest in looking at if/what effects there are on fatigue based on playing surface. He then breaks down how the data is being collected and why he set it up in this manner.
We then shift gears and start talking about training and programming. Sam breaks down how he’s seen the idea of “less is more” being very successful with some specific athletes going as in-depth as to share us a breakdown of a “14 day roll over” he had great success with. We also discuss some successful methods and progressions he has implemented to improve “game speed” with his athletes.

My Thoughts Monday #23- Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond- Be Careful, We May Need The Hand That Feeds Us Mar 26, 2018

“There’s been a lot of positives that have come not just for individual coaches, but for coaches in the profession as a whole because of our connections to specific sport coaches.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by GymAware, the leading tool to measure your athlete’s weight room performance. Learn more about “The Rolls Royce” of bar velocity monitoring here: https://kinetic.com.au/gymaware.html
For this weeks My Thoughts Monday I play devils advocate in the discussion as to where S and C coaches should report and the role in sport coaches in our profession. I touch upon:
1) Increases in our ability to individualize working with less teams
2) Increased staff
3) Increased compensation
4) Increased involvement within the team
This is all just a devils advocate look at the idea of us completely separating ourselves from sport coaches. There are many things that have had a positive impact on the profession that may go away, or return to the "way it was" not so long ago.

Episode 125-Scott Caulfield, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach and Coaching Education Manager NSCA Head Quarters-Pushing The Profession Forward. Mar 20, 2018

“the engagement with our strength and conditioning coaches from high school through professional is growing right now, it’s the best I’ve seen it in my seven years here at the NSCA. It’s come from a commitment that the NSCA said ‘yeah we realize that we need to do better for the strength and conditioning coaches and we are going to do that.’”
Today I am joined by the Head Strength and Conditioning Coach and Coaching Education Manager NSCA Head Quarters, Scott Caulfield to discuss projects that are being put together to help better educate our coaches. Scott starts out sharing with us the background to their latest offering, Foundations of Coaching Lifts Course, which is about to go live. This course fills a major void that many have said about the CSCS exam, and that is the hands on coaching evaluation. We then start discussing many the challenges of building courses and events, and the reasoning behind the directions they are moving. The amount of work that goes into these courses and events is staggering, and something the work and effort involved is something people need to understand. Scott finishes off by touching upon the different pro sports groups they’re involved with and what similarities they see across the board, and how engagement across all levels of coaching has moved to the front seat of what he’s trying to do for the profession.

My Thoughts Monday #22- Keir Wenham-Flatt, University of Richmond-Five Reasons To Implement The Minimal Dose Mar 19, 2018

“It’s a fact that every new exercise, every amount of frequency, every amount of intensity, every amount of volume, has a limited ability to elicit adaptation within the athlete. Every time we use it we have begun on the path to reaching a point of zero return, or diminishing return.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by GymAware, the leading tool to measure your athlete’s weight room performance. Learn more about “The Rolls Royce” of bar velocity monitoring here: https://kinetic.com.au/gymaware.html
For this weeks My Thoughts Monday brings Keir Wenham-Flatt, gives us the five most imprortant reasons why to implement the minimal amount of stress necessary to your athlete’s in their training. These five are:
1) Prioritizing the stuff that matters
2) Long term adaptation in the program
3) Maximizing potential upside vs minimizing potential downside
4) “Wiggle Room”
5) Intensity
Mr. Rugby Strength Coaches dives down each of these rabbit holes. He shares where he sees each of these fitting in and how, when looking at these, coaches can be more successful in the development of their athletes.

Episode 124-Dr. Steph Allen, Boston Physical Therapy and Wellness-New Conversations To Have Look At Female Athlete ACL Injuries Mar 13, 2018

“Exposing an ACL ligament to estradiol in a petri dish type thing resulted in less collagen synthesis and less, what they call fibroblast proliferation. So it’s basically, both things are going to correlate to less tensile strength.”
In this week’s edition of The Podcast I get to sit down and discuss Dr. Steph Allen and discuss ACL injuries in female athletes. After a brief introduction Dr. Allen shares with us the research she has been looking into. These two areas are the neuromuscular training (brain-muscle connection) and hormonal contributions to the risk of injury. This conversation was prompted by a discussion with her colleague about what we have seen with our student athlete’s here. This revolved around twins who had multiple injuries at the same time of the year, and many other female student athlete’s who were injured who’s cycle where at similar parts of their cycle when they were injured. This leads us down a rabbit hole of her discussing literature that she has been diving into that discusses the relationship between specific hormone quantities leading to ligament issues, and what we have seen here with our student athletes. Both of us really hope that this leads coaches to have more in-depth conversations with their athlete’s about their cycles and research into when these injuries occur. As the saying goes, where there’s smoke there’s fire, and there seems to be quite a bit of smoke in this situation. Dr. Allen is putting out awesome content as to what they’re doing at Boston Physical Therapy and Wellness on instagram at @stpehallen.dpt. Make sure to give her a follow!

My Thoughts Monday #21-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond-The Madness of the Endings In March Mar 12, 2018

“We play to win but few receive a trophy. Take a look at your seniors, they are living trophies. Coaching is about winning but it is also about growing people. Be committed to the person that wears the jersey. Serving them through mentorship is the greatest reward of all."

This weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss the collateral damage that comes with Championship Weekend and The NCAA Tournament, and that is players playing their last game. This is something that is a real world challenge for us as coaches, and the time where our student athlete’s may need us the most. We, as coaches, need to keep in mind what Matt said there to help us as a reminder as to what’s really important.

Episode 123: Brett Bartholomew, ArtOfCoaching.com -The Cold War Between The Art and Science Mar 06, 2018

“If communication was easy, then why are do so many misunderstandings occur?”
In this weeks edition of the podcast I get to sit down with 2017 Seminar presenter Brett Bartholomew and discuss the tug of war going on in the field when it comes to the “Art vs Science” debate. After a brief catch up Brett shares with us his latest project, Bought In. After we get through where the course came from and how it connects to the book we talk about how this course can be a huge positive for coaches. This leads us right into the discussion of art vs science. Brett, as only he can do, breaks down better ways we can communicate and reasons why with not just scientific backing, but in great anecdotal examples that he has personally seen in coaching. This is why I am sure that this course is going to be an absolute home run. Make sure you check it out at the link below, I’m sure this is something that you will not want to miss out on:

My Thoughts Monday #20-Jay DeMayo, University of Richmond-Extra Workouts To Build Buy In Mar 05, 2018

“What I am trying to do is get theses extra workout to have a little more ump, to have a little more pop. For them to be excited to do more. Because again, like Mike said, if all we are doing is what we are being asked to do we are doing the same as everybody else.”
This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by GymAware, the leading tool to measure your athlete’s weight room performance. Learn more about “The Rolls Royce” of bar velocity monitoring here: https://kinetic.com.au/gymaware.html
This weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss what is expected of our basketball student athletes, and how we handle “extra” work with them. I share with you the strategies that we have utilized to help improve their participation in extra workout, and how these have lead to not just improvement with the extra workouts but also with the primary work that we have prescribed for them. Diving in with them and grinding it out next to them has helped them enjoy the work and want to be involved in it more in all areas. I hope this helps you guys out as well.

Throwback Thursday, Interview with James Madison University's Olympic Sports High Performance Team Mar 01, 2018

I had the great pleasure of having Dr. Christian Carter and Coach Willie Danzer on campus the other day to hang out and talk training. It was a great discussion for the afternoon. These guys are doing great things up in Harrisonburg, and I can’t thank them enough for coming down. This is the first (of hopefully many) discussions we will have here where we ask coaches the simple question: “What are you doing right now that you are excited about?” and “What do you do best?” This idea came to me from a visit with NC State Strength and Conditioning Coach Bob Alejo. Coach Alejo asked me these same questions, and all I could think about was how great those questions are, and how great it would be to ask other coaches and share that info with our readers. I hope you all enjoy the podcast and the rest to come!

Episode 122-Tony Holler-Plainfield North High School- Herding Cats To Build Speed Feb 27, 2018

“They’ve adopted the idea that I have that being tired is not the goal, being tired is the enemy. Once you start thinking like that you’ve drank the Kool-Aid, and all of a sudden kids will love your program. You’ll get every kid out, and they’ll be ready to play or ready to run.”
In this weeks edition of The Podcast we sit down and talk speed development with Tony Holler. Tony is a chemistry teacher, football coach, track coach in Illinois, and writer. Coach Holler starts out by sharing with us how he breaks down training, and what minimal dose/micro dose means to him. This includes a day by day breakdown of how he programs his work with his sprinters with specific examples of each day. The conversation then turns into how he got to the point where the idea of minimal dosing came to fruition, and why he stayed with these methods. He then touches upon his “Herding Cats”, where it came from, and why it’s been successful.
Tony then breaks down day by day, each goal, and where the parameters came from. He then rolls right into how this program fits with his football team, and how they train. We then discuss some issues with Track Coaches, and where he sees some of the short comings in the set up of teams, along with the fears many football coaches have with his system. We then discuss some of the misconceptions of his programming, and what truly drives the success of what they’re doing with their athletes. He finishes off discussing RPR, how it’s grown, and where he see’s it fitting in with athletic development. Make sure to check him out on Twitter: @PNTrack and at http://trackfootballconsortium.com.

My Thoughts Monday #19-Chris Hays, University of Louisville-Work Life Balance Feb 26, 2018

“We need to take care of ourselves first, not selfishly, not even considering the idea of being selfish or not willing to put in the work. We need to take care of ourselves first so we can take care of our athlete’s even better.”
This weeks My Thoughts Monday, Louisville’s Chris Hays reviews a letter that he wrote at the end of this tenure at George Washington University. This letter lead to a good friend “calling him out” for what he was doing. He asks the question as to how much this “badge of honor” is truly worth, and what are the sacrifices we, as coaches, are making truly worth it? This isn’t to question work ethic, or to say long day’s are bad, it’s a question as to how we can stay grounded more and not burn out as much. The issues that leads to a lot of these hours is that we do not quantify and qualify our work, and Chris touches upon idea’s with that to make sure that people are at their peek. He closes out by discussing what “success” as a strength and conditioning coach mean’s to him.

Episode 121-Boston Physical Therapy and Wellness-Dr. Zach Gabor-Communicating Around Pain Feb 20, 2018

“We are seeing more and more and more how the research is really supportive of the fact that negative language can really perpetuate pain and persistent pain.”
After a brief introduction Dr. Zach Gabor dives right into how he’s interrupting the latest work on pain science. Dr. Zach is a big advocate when it comes to understanding how vernacular has a massive impact on the perception of pain. Terms of fragility, as Dr. Gabor refers to them, that are used commonly do, in fact, impact not only if there is pain, but how bad that pain is. Emotional states are the next aspect of pain that he covers, and how the persons state at that moment leads to how “painful” something may be. These idea’s lead him to discussing some strategies and things to think of when we are discussing training and the potential for issues arising with our athletes. This leads us to a discussion of social media and communicating with coaches and athletes when you see trends occurring. The conversation closes with Zach sharing his role in education, and where he see’s that encompassing both (PT and S and C) field. Make sure to follow Dr. Zach on Instagram at: @simplestrengthphysio

My Thoughts Monday 18-Aaron Heishman, Progressing The Professions and Your Institution Through Collaborating Feb 19, 2018

“Science is a way of thinking and it’s an approach to answering and solving a problem. It doesn’t necessarily matter if the scientists on your campus study exactly the research questions you have, but they may bring new insights and new lenses that can really support the things you’re doing and better help you better understand and help guide you in making training decisions.”
University of Oklahoma’s Aaron Heishman shfares with us his thoughts on collaboration between sport performance and academia in today’s My Thoughts Monday. Aaron is in a unique position working on his PhD at Oklahoma while working with Men’s and Women’s Basketball. He discusses how academia can help in a “checks and balances” type situation in helping with formulating and assisting in ways to look at data, and how connections across campus can assist in building relationships with internships and graduate assistants can lead to massive improvements. His finishes discussing the issues with academia most likely not being the individuals to reach out to collaborate due to many factors, even though many would like to be involved.

Thursday Throwback-Cal Dietz-Single Leg vs. Double Leg Training: Addressing the Controversy Feb 15, 2018

Coach Dietz was kind enough to sit down and discuss his latest article "Single Leg vs Double Leg Training: Addressing the Controversy" with me this week. In this discussion Coach Dietz talks about why he decided on this topic, how his oscillatory method fits in and how using Track and Field and Swimming athletes help show the validity of methods you use in training. You can find more on the oscillatory method and video examples at his page www.XLAthlete.com Enjoy.

Episode 120-Dr. Zachary Long: Monitoring Training Load to Connect Rehab to Training Feb 13, 2018

“In the strength and conditioning world we have to realize that everybody’s volume and intensity tolerance is slightly different, and we just got to get better at just recognizing that, and understanding that if we keep hammering away at some people they’re not going to recover they’re going to get hurt, they’re not going to progress.”
Dr. Zachary Long sits down and discusses the role of monitoring volume and training in both rehab and training in today’s edition of The Podcast. After a brief intro Dr. Long starts to break down the importance of monitoring volume, intensity, and means selected in both training and rehab. He discusses how this can help streamline transitions between rehab and training, and help decrease the likelihood of an athlete getting injured due to a spike in training volume. Next he touches upon ways to look at volume, and why the actual means utilized is so important in understanding the total volume of work done. This leads us to a discussion on programming and a simple way we can uncover problems to stay away from issues.
Dr. Long is putting out some fantastic content on his site and the gram so make sure to follow him on instagram @thebarbellphysio and follow his blog at www.thebarbellphysio.com.

My Thoughts Monday #16 Todd Hamer- Is It Really Culture? Feb 05, 2018

“Everyone talks about what culture is set to win championships, and here’s the reality of it, the best athlete’s tend win championships.”
This weeks My Thoughts Monday brings us Robert Morris University’s Todd Hamer talking about culture, and what his thoughts are on it. Todd discusses how everyone’s culture has issues, just like everyone’s program has issues. This is a personal thing that each coach needs to address in both situations working on our weaknesses versus our strengths. Again, this doesn’t end just at culture, but goes throughout the entire physical preparation process. Ham even goes as far as to shares examples of how he’s worked with “culture” in different teams that he has had the pleasure of working with at RMU.

Episode 118: Jeremy Frisch-A Long Term Athletic Development Model Requires Physical Education Jan 30, 2018

“Having kids started this thinking because I wanted them to have access and I wanted them to be exposed to, you know, not just training, but enough movement as they’re growing up so when they do get older weather they play sports or not they want to be competent movers so they can go out and do fun stuff and not be stuck, hurt, or out of shape, or overweight or any of those things. So, I wanted to start them on the right foot.”
Today we are joined by Jeremy Frisch to share his Long Term Athletic Development (LTAD) Model. Jeremy first starts out sharing with us where the idea for the model he has developed came from and how the program has evolved with USA Football. Jeremy then breaks it down, piece by piece, and step by step to how the program is moving and the progressions they are implementing. His plan allows for fluid progression and regressions based on maturity and development that is absolutely fantastic. For more, make sure you follow him on twitter: @JeremyFrisch and instagram: @achieve_performance to see more of what they’re doing with their program.

My Thoughts Monday #15: Jeremy Golden, How to Deal With a Difficult Season Jan 29, 2018

“If they can get work done in here and continue to grow that’s what we need to be focusing on as strength coaches, especially when times are tough.”
It’s something that we have all come across, and if you haven’t at some point in the future you most likely will. Santa Clara’s Jeremy Golden shares with us today some ways he has helped keep his athletes involved in difficult times. This includes how he handles the student athlete’s he works with that are not playing, weather it be due to injury or being red shirted. Coach Golden brings up a few fantastic points, and am truly grateful for him sharing these experiences with us.

Episode 117: Tim DiFrancesco: Focusing on the Task at Hand Separates the Great from the Good. Jan 23, 2018

“Your assessment, really, is never going to stop with us. We are assessing you as we see how you respond to the dosing and to the prescription of exercise that we give you.”
Today we are joined by Tim DiFrancesco discussing working and learning in NBA, building a business, and relationships. After a brief intro Tim starts breaking down lesson’s he learned in his tenure in the league and how they are impacting him as a business man and a coach in the private sector. Being able to work with some of the best players and leaders of all time left a huge imprint on him due to his ability to take a step back and observe them working with other players, coaches, and staffers. Tim then breaks down how they assess everyone from general population athletes, to pros. Next we discuss how subjective monitoring plays a role with what they’re doing at TD Athletes Edge. Tim finishes off by sharing with me his favorite Kobe story, how he handles people who think they’re “the next” Kobe, and how his focus is what truly separated him.

My Thoughts Monday #14: Katlyn Haycock, University of Michigan-The Goal Should Always Be Perfection Jan 22, 2018

“Even if the perfection isn’t attained the outcome is decidedly better than just ‘good enough’”
This weeks edition of My Thoughts Monday is brought to us by Michigan’s Katlyn Haycock. Katlyn discusses with us Jon Bowers TED talk (check it out here: https://www.ted.com/talks/jon_bowers_we_should_aim_for_perfection_and_stop_fearing_failure) on perfection that hit home with her. In the talk there are multiple fantastic examples as to why aiming for perfection needs to be the goal at all times and Coach Haycock connects these examples and quotes with examples in athletics that coaches see regularly. This also drives straight into fears of failure and the all to dangerous “good enough” that has crippled team in the past. She finishes out with her interpretation of the definition provided on perfection and why she feels it’s important for athlete’s to understand it.

Episode 116: Mike Bewley: How a personal Litmus Test Truly Enhanced His Program. Jan 16, 2018

“To me, that’s the ultimate Litmus Test. If you got something in your weight room, or you have some sort of mantra. Go to your kids and say “can you recite that? And more importantly can you define it?” If they can’t, it’s an opportunity for you to step back and say, “ok, how strong is my culture? How am I trying to support the staff upstairs? How am I trying to create that connection so we are all speaking and saying the same thing and reinforcing on and other’s end goals?” I think if you do that the score board will take care of itself.” Mike Bewley
We are joined by Clemson’s Mike Bewley in this week’s edition of The Podcast. We start out catching up Mike on his travels from Dayton, to Atlanta (GA Tech) and now Clemson. That leads right into why he feels he was attractive to Clemson and how they have started to “turn things around” in the weight room. Coach shares with us some specific steps he took to build the “culture” back in the weight room. These were building accountability “contractually”, and defining everything that they are doing from goals, to their focal point phrases and terms were. This was due to an internal Littman’s test that he ran, that they group failed awfully. Next, he shares a story about how using a pair of boxing gloves and a breakfast club helped reinforce their mantra and get people to not only buy into that but buy into each other. We finished off talking about Critical Reload, what it is, how it came about, and where they’re going. Check out more about it here:

My Thoughts Monday #13-Jake Jensen, Considerations for Athlete Tracking Jan 15, 2018

“When you quantify something like sports, you have to understand that the statistical measure of how that quantifiable number relates to the sport needs to be done by someone who understands statistical measures.”
This week’s My Thoughts Monday brings the return of The Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for Eisbaren Hockey Club, Berlin, Germany, Jake Jensen. Jake shares with us his thoughts on implementing GPS technology as a means of injury prevention. The first point he touches upon is the cost/benefit of the technology. This leads him into discussing what are the costs involved with using the technology. This isn’t just limited to financial investments, but also man time hours required to collect and interrupt the data, along with all the set up required to actually use the devices. The accuracy of the technology is the next topic that Jake discusses, including research done on this, recent improvements in the tech, and not only how it relates to the devices, but also how that relates to the entire team vs positions vs each individual athlete. Lastly, he discusses what the numbers are and who should actually interrupt the data to get the most out of the tech.

My Thoughts Monday #12-Chase Campbell, Indiana Fever-Building and Maintaining Buy In With Athletes. Jan 08, 2018

“That was something I learned early on in my career. When I tried to walk into a program and lay the hammer down and pretend like I was the one in charge, and that it was my way or the highway. That usually doesn’t go over that well, at least from what I found out.”
In this week’s My Thoughts, Indiana Fever Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Chase Campbell discusses some methods he’s used for building and sustaining buy in. This “buy in”, in his opinion, starts with having an athlete led culture, which leads into him discussing how getting to really know your athlete’s impacts buy in. His third point he touches upon is learning to speak the same language of the athletes. Communication is key, so you need to know how to get points across to them. The final thing he touches upon is giving autonomy in training and how it can be utilized to increase buy in with your athletes.
Who is Chase Campbell?
Chase Campbell is a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the National Strength & Conditioning Association (NSCA) and is currently the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Indiana Fever (WNBA).

Episode 114: Matt Wenning, Ludus Magnus- A Look at Training, Both Present and Future Jan 02, 2018

“Obviously you can train harder when your younger but the philosophy is the same, which is, where are you weak and how do we fix these area’s so you’re less prone to injury, so we can train harder?”
Matt Wenning joins us to discuss programming and the direction the world of training needs to move. After starting out with a brief background, Matt dives right into discussing some of the issues he sees in the world of training today. He touches upon the complexity of training, people rushing results, and the role of programming in recovery. Having learned from some of the best of the best in the iron game, Matt has been guided by and learned from fantastic coaches helping him build his programming. His “planning” is extremely similar even looking across platforms with tactical athletes (fire fighters and military), team sport athletes, general population, or lifters. He starts out looking specify at their weaknesses and the most common issues/injuries that occur within the sport/activity. This includes exactly how he breaks this down and looks at it to adjust training for both single clients and how he alters it for larger groups. Matt then breaks down some aspects of his programming including specific exercises he has selected. His break down of this includes exercise selection, reasons he selects those means, and what he is looking for to determine that selection. This leads him right into where he see’s specialized/specific exercise in the realm of training and why he feels these are moving further away from where we need to train people based on the obesity epidemic, and how that’s impacting basic training. He finishes out with sharing with us the direction training is going and the reasons behind it.

Episode 113: Mladen Jovanović- Cultural differences around the world and there impact on coaching Dec 26, 2017

“I don’t believe we can completely ditch the intuitiveness of the coaches. You want to use that data to help you, maybe to give you more question than give you concrete answers. It’s a combination of intuitive thinking and data driven facts.”
Mladen Jovanović sits down with us to talk about his experiences traveling the world as a coach in each corner of the world. We start out discussing cultures around the world, and how those differences impact how you SHOULD work with athletes. This leads him to his lessons learned from coaching in five different countries on three continents.
He then breaks down how different sports prepare, both in the micro and macro, and how he sees the training and sport science practices in the regions he has been in, the influences, and how each are progressing. Next Mladen shares his thoughts on monitoring and its impact on being “smarter” in development and how they utilized technology to make sure athletes were prepared properly. That ties right into some flaws in injury prediction modeling that he has seen, and why we might be chasing our tails with some of it. He finishes off with sharing what he’s doing now, what his research is for his PhD, and why he chose that.

Episode 112: Val Nasedkin, Omegawave-Readiness vs Preparedness vs Sport Mastery Dec 19, 2017

“Because true and always true are different things.”
Val Nasedkin sits down with us to talk about readiness, preparedness, and sport mastery in today’s edition of The Podcast. We start up catching up with Val, and what he’s been up to sense we last saw him at The Seminar. We then discuss the differences between readiness and preparedness, what are the differences, why it matters? This leads up to what’s actually important to be an athlete, and what makes up athlete preparedness.
Next, he shares with us where the idea to look into readiness came from. He also breaks down each physiological factor that makes up the individuals level of readiness. How does sport mastery fit in with both of them is what he touches upon next. He tells us why it is its own unique entity, and where people get confused in the terminology of it.
He then discusses the functional system, and how each portion of the physiology of the athlete builds into the readiness of the athlete based on multiple systems We finish off discussing ways that coaches could look at training based on these systems to help drive decisions.

My Thoughts Monday #11-Scott Brincks, University of Richmond-Are we doing too much, too little, or what's needed? Dec 18, 2017

“The bottom line is, we are here because of the athletes. We are here because we love what we do, and that drives our passion but can also could our thoughts because we want it so bad for them. Sometimes, simple is the best. Sometimes, just hard work can be successful.”
University of Richmond Director of Strength and Conditioning Scott Brincks asks the simple question to all of us today, “do we do enough, or do we do too much?” He asks this question, not just of the what’s, how’s, and when’s of our programming, but all factors involved. He shares with us how he comes to make decisions in all aspects of his program from training to monitoring, and how the idea of doing what is necessary to achieve the goals he and the athlete have come up with drive all these decisions. He finishes off asking us to think of some simple things with our programming: is this going to benefit the athlete, help them be successful, is it safe, and do you believe in it?

In today’s edition of The Podcast Arsenal Football Club’s Ben Ashworth joins us to discuss the research he has been part of with looking at the shoulder. After a brief intro Ben starts out discussing what is going on at the club now, and how the international fortnight will impact how they handle the players with club.

My Thoughts Monday #10-Jake Jensen- Mental Toughness? Dec 09, 2017

“In a lot of team sport situation mental toughness becomes a scape goat for underperforming athletes weather they lack tactical skill or physical conditioning it’s always convenient to blame mental toughness”
Mental toughness is, and always will be, a point that divides our industry. Today, Jake Jensen shares his thoughts on it. Jake refers to research in to how he defines it, and looks to improve it with his athlete. This is through evaluating the athlete like we would in training and improving what area’s they are weak in. Looking at it in this manner helps coaches look at it as a more “physical quality” in how you train, teach, and develop it including an example of how, step by step, it can be done.

Episode 110-Anna Kuzan, Grand Canyon University, Building relationships and culture from day 1 Dec 05, 2017

"There’s a lot of people out there you want to reach out the them and say, “how was it like early on?” because it wasn’t probably all the roses that they have now. They worked to get that respect. They worked there ASEES off to get that respect, and hearing how they worked their ass off, cause you’re going to be at a smaller school, or you’re gonna work for a coach that doesn’t really care for you. And you’re gonna want to know how to earn that person’s respect, and how to get it. What to do in cases that you might come to. You come up to a wall and are like, “Man, I can’t through this wall”. You reach out to someone that you know who has been successful, or who has been through it and you bounce ideas off them. Hopefully they’ll give information like, "Hey, this is what I would do, this is the approach I would take," and just listening to them and their advice."
Today we are joined by Grand Canyon University’s Anna Kuzan. Anna starts out sharing with us her experience with Ole Miss Softball. This two year turn around brought a team from not making the SEC tournament, to winning it two years later. She shares, step by step, the process that they, as a staff, went through to bring about this change. She then touches upon the differences she sees between where she was and where she is, both in the athlete’s and the situation. We finish giving her advice for young coaches moving forward and specific advice for young female coaches getting into the game.

“You got to find that balance between understanding you can’t be a slave to the numbers. You use it as information and it’s hugely valuable, but at the end of the day you have to take it in conjunction with the subjective piece, and how these players are responding and feeling.”

He finishes off discussing the role of testing in all of this when it comes to moving the athlete forward and gives some examples of tests he's used, along with why he selected these tests, and how they drive decisions.

Today the lead strength and conditioning coach at the Irish Institute of Sport, Dr. Eamonnn Flanagan joins us to discuss a different way to look at sprinting scores with athletes.

This is obviously the early stage of evaluating this, but Dr. Flanagan sees great potential for this.

In this edition of The Podcast I sit down and talk training with sprint coach Hakan Andersson. After a brief bio we discuss where his desire to research training methods began.

We close out discussing Olympic Lifts, where they fit in training, and why he uses them, along with how strong is “strong enough”.
