Show notes

“Coming from American football and into rugby and getting my mind blown with the conditioning levels that these guys had. Working for 80 minutes and carry a lot of muscle mass, and I thought a couple of the benefits of the flywheel were perfect for the conditioning effects.”
Paul Cater joins us today to discuss everything fly wheel training. Paul starts out with us sharing how he got introduced to the fly wheel. Next he touches upon the benefits of using the fly wheel vs gravity based resistance, and how his work with rugby really molded his thought process on it.

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

Show notes

“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

Show notes

“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

Show notes

“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

Show notes

“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

Show notes

“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

Show notes

“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

Show notes

“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.

Show notes

“I think were we need to continue to challenge ourselves is, just because we are good at that, we may be good at the human side of it. We still need to be able to explain why we do what we do and teach up and teach down what we are doing.” Ron McKeefrey
