Why should 🏈 coaches feed the cats? ChatGTP’s answer: Football coaches should Feed the Cats because it prioritizes speed, freshness, and performance over punishment, fatigue, and outdated grind culture. The phrase, coined by Tony Holler, isn’t about pampering athletes—it’s about maximizing performance by training smarter, not just harder. Here’s why football coaches should embrace it: ⸻ 🔋 1. Speed Wins Games Football is a game of explosive, short bursts. Feed the Cats places top priority on developing and showcasing raw speed—which can be the difference between a touchdown and a tackle. ⸻ 🧠 2. Brains Over Brutality Outworking everyone is a myth if the work causes burnout or injury. Feed the Cats flips the script: •Less grind, more precision. •Fewer reps, better reps. •High output, short duration. This approach respects athletes’ nervous systems and minds. ⸻ 🔄 3. Practice Fast, Play Fast Cats don’t run all day—they explode when it matters. Football players should train the same way: •Timed sprints. •Data-driven incentives. •Stop practice when it’s still good. This builds neurological sharpness, not just “toughness.” ⸻ ⚡ 4. Fresh is Fast Fatigue hides speed. Coaches often overtrain because they mistake exhaustion for discipline. But tired legs don’t break tackles or win races. Feed the Cats emphasizes recovery and readiness, not just reps. ⸻ 🧬 5. Culture Change It builds a culture of speed, joy, and measurable progress—not fear and grind. Athletes who love training perform better. They buy in. They believe. And belief is everything. ⸻ In short, Feed the Cats isn’t soft—it’s surgical. It’s how the best stay fresh, stay fast, and stay in the game.

Hurdlers making huge strides today! 🚧🔥🚧

"Speed is global." 🌍 @pntrack Even if sport doesn’t involve sprinting, raising CNS floor raises the athletic ceiling. Golfers. Swimmers. All gotten better through sprinting. One of @KulaPerformance's swim groups set 48 club records in a year after starting speed training🤫

@PrepRunningNerd When Hurdle School is not in session, I get to be the "Hurdle Nerd." 💛🚧😎

Ever see cool pics like these first two and wonder where the photographer was positioned to capture them? The third pic shows Hurdle Nerd just before he took the shots. The talent among our 'amateur' Nerds is amazing.
