Lukewarm take: iron plates are heavier.

Easy tempo run intervals: 1. Go to a Football field 2. Run the length at 70% speed 3. Walk across SLOW 4. Run back at 70% speed One lap = 200 yards Start with 5 laps then add one each week There's your aerobic conditioning for the summer

The back of TCU training shirts!

This statement has been on every staff shirt for longer than I can remember. It has been fundamental for me to impart on ever student and professional that I've brought on. The ones who have thrived in this field bought in to this belief.

Give this to a youth athlete 2-3x per week for a year 1. Skips, hops, open field agility w/ partner 2. Longer sprints (30-40 yards) 3. Resisted 10 yard sprints 4. Unloaded, max-effort sprinting 5. Multi-planar jumps & landings 6. Full body strength Watch them flourish

Pro Tip: if you want a thick neck, buy a ticket in the pit, and head bang like your life depends on it.

Me: “Three sets of 20 on face pulls.” 9th grader:

We had one kid that always crushed the conditioning test So we asked "How are you always in such good shape?" He looked at us confused "I just do the program Coach Basil sends us" Imagine that? He just did what he was asked to do and he was in peak shape Wild

🗣️ You MUST lift in-season… you wanted context, so let’s talk about it! 🔑 Read the below… change how you look at in-season training 1️⃣ “I don’t want to be sore.” Understand context. Understand protocol that can be taken in a GOOD program by a GOOD coach who can have you work

Was asked today what areas I think are often done poorly in volleyball S&C: 1. Not training due to fear of soreness because there is no offseason 2. Conversely, not factoring in stress from club or HS season (depending on what side of the equation you work) into training 3.

"Coach, what do I need to do to get better this offseason?" "You need to lift. With your teammates. With our Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach. Who's trained professional football players. And literal Olympians." "Ah, it's good Coach. I work out at the Planet Fitness."

Oof. Back at it. 😤
