Hey coaches!

Did you know hundreds of coaches ALSO rely on us to program for their athletes?

Especially small school sports coaches who also have to run lifts for their teams

Tired of feeling overwhelmed?

Need an affordable, scalable system?

I don’t like to make guarantees

However, I can promise you that if you work consistently with intent, you’ll see results

What does the “work,” involve, though?

It’s a proper weekly blend of sprints, jumps & strength

Adjusted year round

đŸ”„ One of my FAVORITE adductor variations

The band resisted Copenhagen plank

This is a two birds, one stone scenario

The top leg pulls down on the box which targets the top leg adductor

The bottom leg pulls up against the band which targets the bottom leg adductor

5 attributed athletes must build in their training

1. Strength: 1-5 rep lifts progressed over time

2. Speed: short sprints at full speed & with load & longer, max-effort sprints

3. Power/explosiveness: max-effort, full speed jumps. Light weights fast

4. Agility: react to

Strength Training Essentials for Athletes:

1. 1-2 core movements done weekly for uppers & lowers

2. Progressively load week by week, month by month

3. Take a “de load,” week every couple months to reset & rest

4. Prioritize tempo w/ lifts

5. Prioritize concentric intent

đŸ”„ Start your week with this absolute burner

We call this a “Y/T raise with mini hurdles.”

LOVE how concentrated we have to move due to the hurdles

The goal is to not touch the hurdle on either the way out or way back in

PLUS, full reset/lift from floor before each rep

How many young athletes fall into this cycle?

I bet it would be nice to have an affordable way to get programming that’ll help get results

If only that existed somewhere w/ videos, guidance & more

All in one app đŸ€”

Oh, that’s right. It does!

Young athletes!!

You have 2 options

1. Keep going to the gym without a plan & don’t get better

2. Spend the cost of 2 chipotle meals each month on every bit of programming & guidance you need

Want to get faster, jump high & get stronger?

Your choice: onlystrength.uscreen.io/pages/signup

Somewhere along the line I got fairly popular online

I then started being soft & not as authentically outspoken as I once was

Feels good to be back & letting it rip

Sorry to anyone who has been on this journey from the beginning

Promised I’d never change & I did

No more.

“We just don’t have time for strength training.”

- 3 travel teams
- Skills coach 3x per week
- 1-2 practices every day
- 5-6 games every week

Then, injuries happen & performance suffers & we play dumbfounded & wonder why


THIS is why!
