PSA for all sports coaches and athletes: If you’re lucky enough to have a full time S&C coach at your school, help them feel appreciated. There is no offseason. The stress you feel during the season? That’s daily and multiplied daily in S&C. Know that it is not easy.

Here’s what a daily, after-school lift has to look like for us. Our kids have to be able to flow to different spots for different exercises. Do I see every rep? Nope. Is every rep perfect? Far from it. But there is no excuse for me to think I CAN’T train them to me.

Part of me breaks when I talk to female athletes from other schools when they say they can’t get into their weight room at school because it’s ’only for the guys’ or better yet ‘football only’. 2023 and we got future college athletes that can’t get the basic needs they need…

One of my favorite variations to replace Oly lifting is our DB Jump Series. This lets us check some boxes of force production (and dissipation) with non-countermovement, countermovement, and ‘drop in’ work. Weight dictated by how high their verticals are. 📈

Power. Because of space and time constraints, we do not go through any true Olympic lifting. We utilize the trap bar a ton in our program, usually leading to a trap bar speed pull at its heaviest, effecting different ranges of the force velocity curve.
