Bad eyes tell lies… people will talk about technique, he should have speed-turned, he should have stayed low, went head to shoulder, not killed his arms… but it all begins and ends with 👁️.. you move with your 👁️ before your body does a thing

Still looking for a new spot. DC, OC, LB’s, RB’s, WR’s, CB’s, OL, DL. CSCS with a proven track record in S&C and sprint training. Moved to a new area, looking for a new home to coach. NW Iowa hit me up. Don’t even want to be paid…just want to work.

Development comes in stages. Having all athletes training in the same manner not only shows a misunderstanding of human development but raises the injury potential. Don’t trust just anyone to guide your child through these stages. Find an actual professional.

When you ask K-12 teachers who are parents how satisfied are they with their child's school and then sort by school type this is what you get.

If you stick with “This is how we’ve always done it” you’re going to get the same results you’ve always gotten. So, are you getting the results you want? Or is it time to replace the status quo?

@teachthemx3 Probably not that would be costly, but I’m sure there will be a few admin retreats up there.

This same logic applies for football as well.
Going back to the Unbreakable Uncle @KurticusHester RIP.
A football game might take 3 hours of total time, but look at the demands of the sport.
An average play is 5.5 seconds.
There's ~34s of recovery between plays.
At around 59-85 plays a game the average player will see less than 8 minutes of live action.
When it comes to practice, would you rather have them run for 8 minutes, slow, sloppy, zero intention, zero effort?
Or would you have them intentional, sharp, fast, and fresh, with the same amount of rest they'd see on game day? Including the 3:26 of rest they'd have between series?
Is this an oversimplification of energy systems? Sure. But are you going to focus on the 90% or the 10% in practice? In conditioning?

The Kelce brothers accidentally explained one of the longest-running training mistakes in professional sports in under 30 seconds. A pitcher's delivery takes 1.5 seconds. The rest period before the next pitch is roughly 20 seconds. A starter who throws 100 pitches in a game produces somewhere between 2 and 3 minutes of total physical exertion across a 3-hour window. The work-to-rest ratio is approximately 1:20. That ratio maps almost perfectly to the ATP-CP energy system, the anaerobic pathway that powers movements lasting under 10 seconds. Sprinting. Jumping. Swinging a bat. Throwing a 97 mph fastball. Every meaningful action in baseball lives in this system. Distance running trains the opposite system. Aerobic metabolism. Slow-twitch muscle fibers. Type I fibers that are smaller, produce less force, and prioritize fatigue resistance over power output. Elite sprinters carry 60-80% fast-twitch fibers. Elite endurance athletes carry 60-95% slow-twitch. A 2008 study on collegiate baseball players found that combining endurance training with power training produced measurable drops in power output. You are literally remodeling the engine in the wrong direction. Training the aerobic system when every sport-specific action runs on anaerobic fuel. The tradition started decades ago because games last 3 hours and coaches confused game duration with physical demand. A game lasting 3 hours does not mean the athlete is exerting for 3 hours. A pitcher standing on the mound between pitches is recovering, not working. The correct training analog is a sprinter who runs 100 meters, walks back, and goes again. Driveline Baseball, Eric Cressey, and every major sports science program has been publishing this data for over a decade. Strength coaches at the MLB level largely moved to sprint-based and med ball protocols years ago. But the foul-pole-to-foul-pole jog still persists at the high school and college level because the coaches who played in the 90s trained that way and never updated. The Kelces just explained it to 3 million people faster than any journal ever could.

@TheGridironHQ All starts with C. Kids, coaches, and parents need to understand the why behind it and not only how beneficial it is for athletics but how important it will be for the rest of their lives.
English
You take over a program that hasn’t lifted consistently in 3 years.
Kids don’t know how to squat, attendance is inconsistent, and there’s no system in place.
What’s your FIRST move:
A) Mandatory lifts
B) Incentive system
C) Educate players
D) Fix schedule
E) Fire strength coach
F) Other
Why?

@ThreeSevenBar That run right in the middle is called Big Brave. Looks exactly like when I was a kid, thanks for sharing this.

@OLCoachRosen Until somebody steals them at least. “Coach somebody stole my knee pads”. If you haven’t heard that do you even coach?????

Easily the single most important piece of equipment worn by today’s football players. We’ve avoided so many injuries by making sure the kids keep these in and don’t roll their pants up past their knees

Working a triangle on single ball carrier with no blocking is pure stupidity.
Also, how soft are both defenders for going low on the ball carrier. It’s 3 of y’all and you’re cutting his legs. Not to mention being terrible teammates. Outlaw this dumb ass drill now. It’s on the coach. The players are just doing what they are told!

NEW: SEMO football showcased a drill that is complete stupidity. This is EXACTLY how players end up getting hurt for no reason… 🤦♂️
