Huge thank you to @newathlete @WGF1 @pntrack @clh_strength @KulaPerformance @TriphasicTrain @les7spellman for the information you delivered this past weekend at @UbrZati OutZide the Box VI. Ryan & Dan — you guys got me “Dropping”!! Yo @MarkSmellyBell I’m doing “Project 60”. This 56 year old “skinny little bastard” is going to be a FAZT, Bouncy 60 year old! 😉🤣. I’m wearing the Pro version ProPulse Power Vest — the NEW Athletic Advantage. Every Step Stronger

Memory Lane! The 25-year anniversary of getting drafted #20 by the St. Louis Rams in 2001 — truly an amazing day. Equally amazing is this 4-minute ESPN video they did on me and my trainer Jay Schroeder two days before the draft. How many people were impacted and inspired by it still blows my mind, from current professional athletes and players to world-class performance coaches and everyone in between. To this day, it’s usually the first thing people bring up when they meet me. It brings me a lot of joy knowing that our work is still helping and inspiring people all these years later. To all the young guys getting drafted tonight and the rest of the week: Congratulations! Take full advantage of this opportunity, work your butt off, and enjoy every moment! You will never get this time back!! #NFLDraft2026 #Rams #NFL

Removing dumbbells under 40 pounds from a college weight room is a shortsighted, reckless and a harmful decision, especially when many incoming athletes particularly high school transfers or freshmen lack foundational strength. Why ignore basic principles in strength and conditioning, progressive overload, injury prevention, and guidelines from the NSCA?? Many College Athletes Arrive with Inadequate Foundational Strength High school athletes often enter college programs without a solid base of strength, proper movement patterns, or neuromuscular control. Research shows that supervised resistance training is safe and effective for youth/adolescents, but many high school programs lack qualified supervision or progressive structure, leaving gaps in basics like core stability, scapular control, hip hinge mechanics, or unilateral strength. NSCA position statements on youth resistance training emphasize starting with light loads to master technique, build foundational strength, and reduce injury risk before progressing to heavier weights. Studies indicate that young athletes benefit from multifaceted programs that include lighter loads for technique-driven work, which can lower sports-related injury rates by improving biomechanics and joint stability. For these athletes, jumping straight to 40+ lb dumbbells risks poor form, compensatory patterns, and overuse injuries (e.g., shoulder impingement from unstable pressing or knee valgus in lunges). Light dumbbells (5–35 lbs) allow safe skill acquisition and volume building without ego-driven overload. Progressive overload involves systematically increasing demands (weight, reps, sets, tempo, etc.) to force adaptation. You can’t effectively progress if the entry point is too high. Beginners or underprepared athletes need lighter loads (often <60% 1RM) to accumulate volume, improve endurance, refine technique, and build work capacity before heavier training. Continued 👇 🧵

Texas Tech took every weight under 40 lbs out of their weight room. Love this!! No shortcuts. @NextUpBreneman x @USAT

Yes, it does, and 99% of weight room work ignores technique and position, focusing only on the numbers lifted. No REAL development is happening. Sure, athletes may lift more, but most of the load goes straight to their joints and reinforces poor movement patterns. There is no effort or focus on training the proper neuromuscular patterns that govern efficient movement and true athletic development. Little to no work is done to teach the body how to absorb force. We just add more exercises, pile on more weight, and condition endlessly. We call it “training”, but it’s not… it’s just “exercise.” I could go on and on…

How much emphasis do you put on skill development in the offseason? I see a ton of high schools talk about running and lifting all of the time. I’m a big believer in those things too but I wonder if skill development gets neglected too often in offseason programs.
