Swift Performance SC

Class of 2028 🏐 in our city is on another level. So far from my training program, we have 4 freshmen that made varsity, 4 made JV. More tryout results coming. I know there are more with similar outcomes. This class will be great to watch the next 4 years!

@clh_strength It stings. But all that I have seen you produce & contribute to over the last 3-5 years on here gives me the confidence you are more prepared than most for a great, new chapter.

Life is crazy, man. Getting fired in this industry can really shake you. At the same time, I’m excited to figure out how to solve this new problem.

@Challenger_ST “Speed lifting” 😔.

If you are going to introduce weights to your athletes, please make sure you get someone who is qualified to do so!! Kids deserve better

@SamaHoole Wow. Increased access to more food and upgrades to Living standards has positives. Who knew?

China's 18-year-old males are now the same height as American 18-year-olds. Let that sentence sit for a moment. In 1985, the average Chinese boy was measurably shorter. Not marginally: substantially. The gap was the kind you could see in a crowd, feel at a doorframe, read in a population chart without squinting. Between 1985 and 2019, Chinese men experienced the largest height increase of any nation studied. Boys aged 7 to 18 grew an average of 7.6 centimetres in three decades. What happened in China between 1985 and 2019? Economic reforms. Rapid urbanisation. And a diet that shifted, quite deliberately and measurably, toward more animal protein. More meat. More dairy. More eggs. The traditional diet was rice-dominant: and rice protein, it turns out, is negatively correlated with height across populations. When Chinese families got wealthier, they bought steak. Their children grew. This isn't a coincidence. It's a controlled experiment that 1.4 billion people ran on themselves over thirty-five years. And their children are now eye-level with Americans.

@timkettenring Sounds like your average middle/high school (including club) level program for 🏀🏐⚽️🎽🤼

What if it was called Conditioning and Strength? Would people take it seriously then?!

@paulsaladinomd @eatlineage What a tool @paulsaladinomd make your damn mind about things

We just cooked the protein bar industry. 🔥 Most are candy bars in disguise: seed oils, gums, fake sweeteners, sugar. Not @eatlineage. New Protein Bar: <200 cal 20g grass-fed whey + collagen 100% real food—no BS Tastes incredible 🍫 Who's in?

@KenDBerryMD Not really forced, sometimes just happens since I workout at 5am and I train athletes until 7 or 8p Monday-Thursday.

Forcing yourself to drink a gallon of water daily is dumb.

@rosettesmix @DoctorTro Lies

@Coach_SwiftPT @DoctorTro False. He always cared about himself, what he ate and exercise. We grew up on a Mediterranean diet including lots of legumes, greens and plant based food. We had protein too but it was not the primary option all the time.

10 years ago, I had never cooked a steak 🥩 I was a doctor, scored on the 90% on my board exam, it was commonly known meat is “unhealthy” It all changed when my wife @rosettesmix challenged me to understand obesity, the way i had with medicine What i found was: they all lied

@NFL_Convo It’s not a powerlifting meet. Just have to keep the feet down and extend your arms enough to do high reps

I’m not trying to be that guy but they actually counted these reps?!?!?!?

@MidTnAthletics @missyMmcbeth I understand what you’re saying Ricky it would be tough to adjust 1 kid at a time, but we also have team sport coaches in their spring offseason who know their kids are playing travel club (think volleyball) and do not try to better manage volume despite the outside demands.

@missyMmcbeth As someone who does club and school team track, it’s not the school programs job to adjust their training to the private entities system. It is the private entities job to adjust to the school. If the similarity of training or the volume is to high, it’s the private entities

Private sector coaches blasting the high school coaches and vice versa is such a tiresome take. If you’re not adjusting training based on what’s happening at the other facility an athlete trains out of you’re just as big of a problem as the person you’re blaming no matter how great you think your system is. There are idiots in both sectors. Check the mirror first to make sure you’re not one of them.

@BreidenFehoko I’ve told high school athletes I train who are post op they can still stop into the group sessions to just be around us so they don’t feel as disconnected.

After the birth of my son that same night my coach called me & while I thought he was calling to congratulate me he told me on the phone “remember what your day job is.” I remember sitting in the hospital mad and confused. It’s not even this situation that comes to mind when I think about mental health awareness in the NFL. Ask any player that’s suffered from injury and ask them how excluded they feel from the team. The only time a coach talks to you is when he’s basically threatening your job so you rush back knowing you aren’t 100%. I’ll continue to speak up for the players who feel they can’t because of that toxic culture.

@ValerieAnne1970 Good for him

🚨Social Media is going crazy over this 14-year-old's "whole foods" diet. Miles Keating only eats single ingredient nutrient dense "whole foods"... Grass fed ribeye. Pasture raised eggs. Organic fruit. Raw milk. Raw honey. What are your very first thoughts?

@CaryKelly11 So you chose the other liberal party LOL

Me 10 yrs ago: Govt knows best Doctors heal Fat = no willpower Red meat bad, white meat good Balanced diets Sun is cancer Hate my life Liberal Me today: Govt isn't public service. It's self-service. Doctors deal drugs Food is boobytrapped Beef is king Nutrient density Sun is life Love my life Republican

@CaryKelly11 @ElkinsCattleCo Carnivores allowing themselves to have onions

This was one of the best meals I’ve had this year. It’s ground beef from @ElkinsCattleCo, topped with eggs cooked in cream and caramelized onions. Total carbs was around 25 g and I have no regrets. The way all of the flavors gelled together was unforgettable. I’ll be doing this again real soon.

@DoctorTro I ate all that listed and didn’t become obese, miserable, or pre diabetic. Perhaps your relationship with food and other stuff in life was more to blame.

Before: I ate whole grains, pasta, cereal, and many many fruits. I was pre-diabetic, obese and miserable Now: I eat steak, eggs and am down 150lbs My choice is easy.

@SBakerMD This hurt my back, knees, hips, ankles and feet to watch

Sprinting is not a skill that most people after 40 retain- film yourself trying and you’ll likely be shocked how bad you are if you haven’t done it in years (in my book what Portnoy is doing would not even qualify as sprinting but it’s likely all he can do currently)

@mattham2 @akashanav “The specific exercises you do and with a specific technique will damage your biomechanics ——> injury”. Sounding pretty GOATA/FP. There is already room to change this for team & individual. Less recovery/sleep because of added PR time & raising kids also adds up.

@Coach_SwiftPT @akashanav And the whole offseason, training camp, OTA’s. The specific exercises you do and with a specific technique will damage your biomechanics ——> injury

Someone on 49ers’ Reddit mapped out the history of their Strength and Conditioning staff since Kyle Shanahan took over. Not sure if there’s any clear correlation between the injuries and the staff, but there’s one commonality here.

@mattham2 @akashanav All that required and allowed time has been regulated more over the years. There is some flexibility the first few months of offseason but most are also back home with their own trainers. As you transition into late spring & summer, it’s getting reduced as other activities go ⬆️

@mattham2 @akashanav Few hours each week with S&C staff vs few hours each day for film/team meetings and few more hours each day of actual practices? lol

@akashanav If any OC had the worst offense or DC had the worst defense they would be canned after a year. Why is S&C staff any different ?

@RUGBY_STR_COACH @akashanav This goes over too many people’s heads.

The commonality is the head coach, who is ultimately in charge of every single rep that gets performed in training. Put the worlds best strength coach with someone who can't/won't manage practice loads, the strength coach looks dumb and people call for their job. Put a poor strength coach with a head coach who can, you win 7 natties and they build a statue of you in Tuscaloosa. Dustin Perry has more intellect in his left nut than Scot Cochran has in his entire brain and yet here we are. It's Shanahan's fault.
