Training 3x per week in the summer is best for the majority of athletes Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Gives people time to travel to/from destinations, recover from tournaments, and gives coaches breaks

Simple before complex Slow before fast Less technically challenging to more It’s all a continuum of exercise selection. We must think through these thing in asking ourselves where are our athletes now and where are we trying to go with them? instagram.com/reel/DHoRzobRt…

Not on Twitter anymore but wanted to share this if you’re not following us on IG. We started trimester 3 this week with 3 fully-functional weight rooms. The new A.M.P. Room (former cardio room) was completed this winter, giving us 11,000 sq. ft. of training space.

To all the high school kids who I have near daily conversations with on how to gain weight, we know you just have to eat more. Yes some certain foods but more plain and simple. Eat your meals, eat your snacks , get your protein and throw a nightcap treat in there too.

99% of people will never: - See their abs in their lifetime. - Run a sub-8-minute mile as an adult. - Bench their body weight for reps. - Stick to a diet for longer than 30 days. - Go a full year without drinking alcohol. Not because they can’t… But because they won’t. Be…

“I play real sports, not trying to be the best at exercising” the great Kenny Powers spoke some truths. For every day you spend training to improve your S&C, you better be putting work into your sport skill No one point in having a ton of muscle if that muscle has no skill

Perhaps the most valuable wisdom I’ve gained from Tony Holler is that speed improves from consistent, low-dose exposure to max velocity. Moderate exercise never creates extreme results. ⁦@HandTigersFB⁩ ⁦@pntrack⁩ #cthsfb

A balanced push/pull ratio is critical to healthy shoulders in a strength program. Your pulls should match/exceed your pushes in: -Volume -Intensity -Frequency If you train bench press hard but just phone it in for rows, you’ll end up unbalanced, weak, & hurt.

Here’s what I mean by choose variations that “autocorrect” This is my 5 year old. He’s never lifted. With a dowel on his back he rounds the back during a squat, even with no weight. I could give him verbal cues & eventually get him right, but it would be a challenge. 1st rep…

Start with movement patterns not exercises. Front Squat vs Back Squat Unilateral vs Bilateral It’s all different ways to attack the same pattern. Find the one whose advantages best fit your training goal & whose risks are acceptable.

Grandpa used to say, “Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance When you can handle something that’s in your way because you prepared for it, have the tools to be successful & you have some confidence, do it & move on. Sort of like performance training & competition too🧐

The standard distance of a drag race is 1/4 mile. Even an amateur drag racer with a decent car can run sub 15 seconds. Do you know what drag racers spend 100x more time on than racing? Mechanics & maintenance. There’s a great lesson in there for ball sport athletes.

Struggling to express force & turn a bar over in a clean? Break the moment down into chunks - here’s a Hang Clean Pull trying to get an athlete to completely finish their RDL & get an aggressive pull, which will later lead to better success in the Hang Clean Always in rotation
