Lol I’m tired of 5v5 and 7v7. This phase needs to end. You got HS kids in ninja turtle outfits… bull rushing with no pads on and a stationary target (🙄), blitzing vs no line… money grab!!! It should be for middle school and elementary only!

I’ve spent my life around offensive line play. I started a Substack to share what I’ve learned — and what I’m seeing. 🧐 First post: (go subscribe) 👊🏾 We’ve confused winning Instagram with winning development. open.substack.com/pub/lecharlesb…

If we really understand coaching, then we have to understand this: coaching is not giving a dissertation between reps. It is not unloading a pile of technical language that an athlete has to stop and interpret while the skill is already unfolding. Sport happens too fast for that. Lifts happen too fast for that. Movement happens too fast for that. That is exactly why Wulf’s 2013 review on attentional focus matters. Across 15 years of research, the paper argues that performance and motor learning are generally enhanced when attention is directed toward the effect of the movement rather than toward the athlete’s own body movements. That distinction matters. In the review, an external focus means directing attention to the movement effect, such as the club, the target, the ball flight, the platform, the ground, or the implement. An internal focus means directing attention to body parts or body actions, such as the hands, feet, arms, or muscles. The review shows that an external focus improved both movement effectiveness and movement efficiency across a wide range of tasks, including balance, golf, jumping, sprinting, swimming, dart throwing, basketball, soccer, rowing, and force production tasks. In practical terms, that means people were often more accurate, more consistent, more balanced, and at the same time more economical, showing less unnecessary muscular activity, better force production, and better automatic control. That is a major coaching point. Better coaching is not automatically more words. Better coaching is often better direction of attention. What makes this even more important is that the paper pushes back on the idea that beginners need endless body part instructions to learn well. Wulf’s review makes the case that even novices often learn more effectively when the cue is tied to the movement outcome rather than to conscious control of the body. The paper also leans on the constrained action hypothesis, which suggests that an internal focus can interfere with more automatic control processes, while an external focus helps the system organize movement more naturally. That should hit home for every coach. If your cueing forces the athlete to overthink, self monitor, and consciously control every segment, you may be making the movement less effective, not more. Good coaching is not about sounding advanced. It is about giving the athlete a cue they can actually use at speed. Sometimes the best cue is the one that says less, means more, and lets the movement happen.

I just built an automated sports team newsletter system that is completely housed on Google. 🤯 The workflow: 1️⃣ Coach fills out a short Google Form on their phone. 2️⃣ Script grabs the data, pulls the season schedule, and calculates player stats. 3️⃣ Automatically formats a beautiful HTML email and blasts it to parents, media, players, community, etc. Turning 45 minutes of Sunday busy work into a 2-minute post-game task. It will be customizable to what you want to communicate or emphasize to the recipients. Wrapping up the final template soon. Who wants it when it's done? 🙋‍♂️

In-season Strength Training is a MUST. Many of these sessions fall on gamedays which often can leave athletes wondering if they should train or rest? The verdict is in👇🏻

Years ago I talked to a Boise State administrator. At what point they brought up the single best years for admissions growth they had were 2007 and 2011. Athletics are the front porch of a university. Presidents and governors who invest in athletics regularly see it paid back to the university.

Talked to a plugged-in HPU alumnus yesterday. She said within 24 hours of Wisconsin win, High Point had 19,000 requests for student tours. 19,000! Matriculation will be limited largely by logistics/space. Crazy.

Logan told a story today about the first day of weightlifting under his watch as the HFC at Centennial. There were 8 kids there! What he and his staff have done there over the last 25+ years is nothing less than impressive.

Glad I could give you some content @Coachjgpatrick Let me know if I can make more slides for you to post here and Instagram. There’s 5 other slides you can share from my original post too As we say in S&C - there’s no original ideas, just original slides.

The weight room is the most influential room in a school. It’s not a place to hang out — it’s a classroom. A place where habits are built, standards are set, and character is developed.

The largest advantages you can give athletic departments is a S&C program that is aligned with all teams. Not each team “doing their own thing”. It’s literally connecting athletes from sport to sport so they make continuous progress year round. Such a low hanging fruit🙌🏻
