A1. You’ve got to collect a base amount of data in first place. Everything comes back to what so avg game demands look like? Work your way back to develop plans/ways to manipulate stressors you want.

A2. Kids can recover from more than we give them credit for. In theory - yes you want the game to be the most stressful thing - but you’ve got to prepare them over the week. Each sport will have different load guidelines relative to games IMO 72 hrs prior to game is hardest day

A4. Year one is about collecting as much data as possible but ESPECIALLY game day data. You can’t make adjustments without have solid data to reference. Y2. Make educated adjustments as needed to create the stresses you want and condition players accordingly prior to season

A5. Hardest for football is lineman plan. Contact and HR are drastically different for those guys. They are fighting the whole game. GPS biases skills kids but ways to determine real load on the bigs

When you think you’ve seen it all, there’s a first time for everything

When SYoung says celebrate turnovers you get knees to chest 50 yards across the field ASAP

Gonna see what PlayerData is all about soon Thanks to Ryan Miller for giving us the opportunity to see these units in action here at Effingham RecruitEffingham

Some of these look familiar Ross Garner

Week 5 Highlights. Go Rebels. 1-0 RecruitEffingham

I said on Ross Garner's podcast a few years ago that I only used 1 leaderboard and this is what I meant. We've been running some form of the OVR Score for 5 years as a singular acknowledgement of athleticism to ensure that all athletes (big and small) compete for rank!

Day 1 PlayerData 1st impressions 1. Turning units On/Off at once is game changer. The initials/ numbers on the screen is big time 2. From start to finish, took 2-3 minutes to sync data with a report in my email in under 10 3. Vest is really nice Still learning but impressed

With youth athletes, I am very deliberate in how much or little I coach athletic movement. It’s very easy to coach an athlete out of being athletic in their movement, such as creating too rigid or unnatural patterns If the result is positive but movement isn’t “ideal” 🤷

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in coaching, especially S&C If it’s not their responsibility, equipment, or space. Nobody will care about it.

Simple not easy

Heard this thread yesterday in a meeting and pulled on it a little bit. Symptoms of a Lack of Discipline A lack of discipline always leaves clues. It’s not random. It shows up in patterns that drag down performance and culture. Inconsistency and Excuses lead the way.

3 things majority of youth athletes struggle with in the weight room 1. Dips 2. Pull Ups 3. Single Leg Squats We could program these as accessories 3x a week and make massive progress
