From awkward group projects to job interviews, communication is the life skill students will use daily, but rarely get taught. In the final episode of my “Life Skills Your Students Should Master” series, we're diving into healthy communication life skills - the kind that makes a lasting impact on students' personal and professional lives. If you missed last week's episode on time management or the one before that on budgeting, be sure to check those out too! In this episode, I'll share why communication is a must-have life skill, how it ties into ASCA mindsets and behaviors, and my favorite hands-on methods to help students practice. Whether it's role-playing tricky social situations or handling difficult conversations, I'm offering practical ways to get students comfortable with communicating, no matter how uncomfortable the topic.Resources Mentioned: Resource: Communicating Feelings Classroom LessonResource: Soft Skills Bundle Resource: Healthy Relationships Classroom LessonFree Resource: New Counselor Podcast PlaylistASCA Mindsets and BehaviorsPodcast: Episode 165, Life Skills Your Students Should Master [Part 1: Budgeting Basics]Podcast: Episode 166, Life Skills Your Students Should Master [Part 2: Time Management]Leave your review for High School Counseling Conversations on Apple PodcastsConnect with Lauren:Sign up for the free, 3-day prep for High School Counseling Job Interviews https://counselorclique.com/interviewsVisit my TpT store https://counselorclique.com/shopSend me a DM on Instagram @counselorclique https://instagram.com/counselorcliqueFollow me on Facebook https://facebook.com/counselorcliqueSend me an email mailto:lauren@counselorclique.comJoin the Clique Collaborative

He has a Masters in Data Science and a Masters in Strength & Conditioning from Edith Cowan University and is an Accredited ASCA Professional L2 S&C Coach. Alongside his civilian career, Chris maintains a part-time military career with the Australian Army Reserves. QUOTES “So my first goal when I arrived here in Wagga was to really make sure that the PTIs understood that I'm not here to do their job, I'm here to actually find ways to highlight the good things that they do” “We try not to use the word sport science or sports physiotherapy or sports nutrition in this tactical domain because there will be people that will automatically turn off and some of the early pushback we'd get is this isn't sport and we're not dealing with athletes, so don't talk to us about sports science. So we change the terminology and most of the time you'll hear us say it's performance science.” “if the PTIs can implement three tailored plyometric regressions and progressions for a group of 60 recruits, if they can do that comfortably with no logistical hiccups, the you can optimize the accuracy of how we are breaking them down into different groups.” “So our job is not just about improving what they do as a recruit, but it's really essentially providing more tools in the toolbox for the aviator. So human performance should be the responsibility of the individual and they (the aviators) should be taking full ownership of their own human performance.” “What we're trying to do is make sure that they're not just fit for service, but fit for life. And when they're finished with their Air Force career, whether that's four years or 25 years later, they have a foundation that can carry them long after their military career” SHOWNOTES 1) Christopher's background and journey in tactical strength & conditioning 2) What it looks like for an initial recruit coming into the Royal Australian Air Force 1RTU and how the performance staff that support the RAAF staff 3) The relationship and interactions between performance staff and physical training instructors (PTIs) 4) The evolution of gold standard and best practice in the RAAF 1RTU physical training 5) Using force plates to make data-driven decisions about training modifications for recruits 6) The role of education in improving RAAF employee's physical performance and “raising the floor” across the RAAF workforce 7) The importance of being able to simplify the complex with S&C PEOPLE MENTIONED Phil Moreland Steve Smith Scott Ryder

Kelly Penfold is currently the speed and conditioning coach for the St George Illawarra Dragons NRL team and perhaps one of the first full-time female S&C coaches at first grade NRL level. She has previously been the Head of S&C at the Queensland Firebirds and a longtime coach at QAS with Olympic sports, and in particular field hockey. She is an ASCA Elite L3 coach and was also awarded the 2023 ASCA Coach of the Year Award. QUOTES “The off-feet conditioning piece for me is around the ability to add a style of energy system conditioning and potentially a tissue loading component when athletes are not able to impact loading” “For triathletes, you've got junior athletes that essentially have come out of probably a high school system or development system and they're going to the junior elite or elite phase and they might've been running 25-30kms in a week and they've got to up to 80-100kms for men and probably 40-60kms for women… so you want to let them plateau at a certain volume for a little while before you then try to bump them up to make sure they've really just adjusted to that load and the volume.” “It's actually probably the reason why I decided to pay more attention to this because I caught myself out just doing the old rinse and repeat of, I'm just going to give them a 20 seconds on 40 seconds off eight times over and then a 15 on 15 off six times over.” “If you truly trying to build out an athlete's lactate threshold or if you're trying to build out like their aerobic capacity or, you know, even working on getting them back to some high speed sprinting, you really need to make that just a bit more precise about what you're trying to achieve and how you're going to get there” “We'll look at heart rate and if it is reflecting the zone that athletes are supposed to be working in? And then can you consequently up your effort? And we can look at how your heart rate adjusts to that effort and build that across a six to eight week period to see if you're actually tolerating the session better than you have been previously.” “I probably steer clear a bit of zone 3 (70-80%) work, kind of in the middle of aerobic, kind of in the middle of working at really high intensities and that just seems to take an overall really high toll on people and trying to get the timing right of how long you actually get them to hold that for as well, it can be quite tricky. So trying to not totally burn them out and push them too far past that area is really quite hard to control in zone 3 so usually I'm trying to work at a base level up to a more of a top level percentage of heart rate.” “I think the big thing for me is if you have the time and the reason we have aerobic intervals is generally because we don't have as much time with the athlete to do like and hour to hour and a half long sessions. But ideally if you have the time, going up over that 45 minute mark for your total session is going to be optimal.” SHOWNOTES 1) Kelly's background and update since the last episode 2) What is off-feet conditioning and why S&C coaches should be experts in it 3) When to build and stabilize at certain training volume thresholds for athletes 4) Common issues with off-feet conditioning, ensuring the precision around getting the desired adaptations is as high as possible and basic rules around energy system development. 6) Using a conditioning needs analysis for training prescription and the interplay between heart rate and wattage 7) The nuances of using heart rate and measuring heart rate recovery based on time taken to get back to zone 2 8) Practical examples of conditioning sessions and making sure the rest periods are long enough for max efforts 9) Building precision around the adaptations you're getting with athletes

We're excited to share that major agility organizations around the world—including AKC, ASCA, CPE, FCI, NADAC, RKC, UKI, and USDAA—have come together in an unprecedented show of cooperation to support independent, evidence-based research into agility safety. These organizations are contributing data to the Canine Sports Science Consortium (CSSC), led by Drs. Arielle Pechette Markley, Abigail Shoben, Melody Moore Jackson, and Rachel Olson. The first study of its kind, this project focuses on contact obstacles—specifically the A-Frame, Dog Walk, and Teeter—and aims to identify the relationship between obstacle performance, number of runs, and reported incidents. The initiative was inspired in part by ongoing discussions around Dog Walk safety, including proposals to lower its height or widen the plank. Join us as Dr. Markley shares how this study came together, what it means for the future of agility, and how judges, trial secretaries, and show organizers can contribute to this collaborative effort. It's a major step toward making agility safer for all dogs, and we're thrilled to help spread the word. You Will Learn Why leading agility organizations are uniting to support data-driven safety research What CARIS is and how it will collect and analyze obstacle-related incident data How current debates around Dog Walk height and width inspired this research initiative What role judges, trial secretaries, and handlers can play in shaping the future of agility safety Mentioned The project announcement on the Canine Sports Science Consortium website Donate to help support dog agility research.

So gym forms the first and probably the most important part of becoming fast and I work off a sort of a triangle model where strength is at the bottom. To be powerful, you need to be strong. And then to be fast, you need to be powerful.” “I don't like to call it taper because I think taper has some connotations around it and athletes think that they're going to feel good and that everything's going to go amazing but it never ever happens that way. And so, unload for me is all in its title. It's about taking out work as we get closer to the event.” “I'd say 90 % of time the gym and bike loading is aligned. So if we've got a de-load week or a low week, it's low in the gym as well.” “So in the team sprint cycling, we've got three types of acceleration, we've got low range, so from zero, we've got mid-range which is our high power and we've got, you know, high range acceleration, which is our speed. So that's how the week looks. Work high torque, high strength in the start of the week. We work high power midweek, and then we work that sort of back end speed at the end of the week. And that doesn't really shift through all of the periodized phases. What shifts is the specificity of it.” “We have a monthly catch up with my group and every month they have to present something back on what they've learned through the month and that gives them accountability and ownership over what they're doing.” SHOWNOTES 1) Kaarle and David's backgrounds as athletes and coaches 2) What type of collaboration is needed when developing athletes and Kaarle's philosophy on sprint cycling performance 3) Benchmarking events in sprint cycling and periodization approaches from the macro- to the micro-cycle 4) What base building, general prep, specific prep and unload phases can look like for athletes in sprint cycling 5) Different weekly structures and adapting the structure around different athletes and their experience and fiber typology 6) Physical benchmarks for athletes in sprint cycling and 220kg full squats 7) Pedagogical approaches to developing athletes and session planning considerations and creating conditions for athletes to both fail and play 8) One legged box jumps and the power of vulnerability PEOPLE MENTIONED Anna Meares Matthew Denny Brene Brown

Chris also hold's a Master's in High Performance Sport from the University of Technology Sydney and is an Accredited ASCA Elite Level 3 S&C Coach. Quotes “An explosive device might be identified as being on the side of the ship. And these divers will go down and instantly I'm thinking, all right, they're going to try and remove the mine off a boat. But it's not the case. They'll actually go down there and drill into the explosive device to try and flood the system so that it doesn't go off and these sorts of things can happen in the dead of night” “Senior instructors that were responsible for the phases of the divers would come to those meetings and get feedback around each of the divers, their readiness to perform, their fatigue, anything related to muscular soreness, and your basic five point wellness questionnaire.” “it's around about a million dollars to train one single diver. So if you're getting towards the back end of a course, and it's gone for 11 months and all of a sudden the diver succumbs to an injury, they'll have to repeat that phase, and that's money tied up or potentially and depending on the injury, that's money lost. “whilst we communicated jump height to the divers, we looked at our RSI as a readiness tool and we were actually testing at the back end of the week. Now gold standard would obviously be on the Monday, but we dealt with the dates that we were given... So the conversation always stemmed around, right, this was the cost of the week” “Pull -ups are a big cultural thing with the clearance divers.” “the PTI then came on this journey where they realized that if they were gonna introduce a session, there was obviously gonna be an increased level of soreness versus having a bit more of a consistent structure to the sessions on a more regular basis that soreness is going to go down and you're going to allow those divers to actually experience some improvement” “we can give them 10 minutes of what they want to then give them 50 minutes of what they need. It's a good trade -off” SHOWNOTES 1) Chris' background as a swimmer and progression in tactical strength and conditioning 2) Challenges faced by Navy clearance divers and addressing vocational drop-out 3) Implementing an athlete monitoring system with Navy clearance divers 4) Strength and power assessments relevant to clearance divers and categorizing divers in “force” or “fit” buckets 5) Traditional physical training for Navy divers, “finning” and influencing PTIs 6) Targeting shoulder and hip resilience and identifying high risk phases in navy diver training 7) Recommendations for using sport science technology in a new environment 8) The strategy of giving people what they want and the strategies of negotiating

In this episode, Wesley College's high-performance manager, Dr. Daniel Hiscock, shares insights from his seven years at the institution, detailing how the school's long-term athletic development (LTAD) program supports students from pre-kindergarten through year 12 in building athletic ability, healthy habits, and life skills. Daniel highlights the program's three-tiered structure, which caters to all students, from general participants to elite athletes competing at state and national levels. He shares inspiring stories of student athletes with lofty goals, such as a badminton player aiming for the Commonwealth Games and a footballer pursuing an AFL career. These examples demonstrate the importance of consistency, tailored support, and collaboration with families to help students achieve their aspirations. The podcast also emphasises the inclusivity of the Wesley College LTAD program, which extends support to less advantaged students and those with disabilities. Programs like UniGym and early gross motor skill interventions are designed to foster lifelong habits of physical activity, ensuring that all students benefit, regardless of their athletic ability. Daniel further explains how the school integrates innovative training methods, such as isometric exercises, to enhance strength, accommodate injured athletes, and manage high training demands while minimising injury risks. A significant focus of the episode is the collaborative mentorship approach taken at Wesley College. Dr. Hiscock underscores the importance of open communication with parents, external coaches, and club programs to effectively navigate the complex needs of high-performing athletes. He also reflects on the challenges of balancing resources and scaling programs, sharing practical strategies to optimise outcomes for a wide range of students. Drawing from his diverse career, Daniel shares lessons learned, emphasising the value of foundational training principles, the need for athlete buy-in, and the importance of individualised programming. He explains how these principles have guided the program's growth and success while remaining adaptable to the unique needs of each student. The episode concludes with Daniel reflecting on the holistic value of sport as a means to build not only high-performing athletes but also well-rounded and resilient individuals.

Dr. Jamie Tallent is the Director of the Human Performance Research Group at the University of Essex, previously holding the position of Associate Professor in Strength and Conditioning at St Mary's University. Jamie earned his PhD from Northumbria University, UK, focusing on corticospinal adaptations from eccentric and concentric resistance training muscle actions. Jamie has worked in professional sport, as the lead strength and conditioning coach at Derbyshire County Cricket Club. Jamie has authored over 80 peer-reviewed publications and numerous book chapters. His research, a mixture of applied and mechanistic studies, includes leading various projects in collaboration with International Cricket Teams, Premiership Football clubs, International Rugby Teams, and world-leading ballet schools and companies. Recently, Jamie has also begun to explore the role of strength and conditioning in children with cerebral palsy. QUOTES “Micro-dosing is just splitting up your training sessions, your volume of work into small manageable chunks” “I'm better putting in small doses that are going to enhance an athletes performance over long periods of time, rather than that scheduling in longer sessions that could affect their training in the subsequent days” “I think the recommendation for micro-dosing I'd almost give is that go to higher rep work as with lower rep work, maybe that's not as easy to microdose in time constrained situations because you're going to have to spend so much time warming up'” “What we've shown in ballet is that the groups that are training three times a week of 15 minutes versus 1 time a week of 45 minutes are getting slightly greater adaptations in strength, in jumping ability, in counter-movement jump.” “I think it's important how we package things as S & C coaches and I think it's important that the athletes are aware that micro-dosing is still going to help them. The narrative to athletes is even if you do one set, even if you do two sets, it's still a positive kind of thing for your sport.” SHOWNOTES 1) Jamie's journey into sport science and strength and conditioning 2) The definition of microdosing and its use to reduce risk of injury or soreness 3) The philosophy of getting as much work as possible into athletes and how microdosing aligns with this 4) How time constraints influence microdosing sets and rep schemes 5) The timing of microdosing S&C around sports training sessions and “clustering” sessions in a training week 6) Examples of microdosing in cricket and ballet and the benefits of microdosing for training absenteeism 7) Managing your communication in different environments and the future of data analytics PEOPLE MENTIONED Glyn Howatson Nathan Spencer Duncan French Jess Turner

He holds a PhD in sport physiology and running performance from the Sport Performance Research Institute at AUT University in New Zealand and a ‘mini' MBA from Simon Fraser University in science innovation and technology commercialisation. QUOTES “There are a number of things that we should be looking for. The first thing is the athlete profile. So that is where all your sub-disciplines come in, from a medical standpoint, what are we talking about? From a biomechanical, psychological standpoint, which type of personality are we dealing with? From a physiological standpoint, are we talking about a speed profile, hybrid or endurance profile?” “So a common question you hear often is should conditioning be more sport specific or should it be more targeting the physical capacities underpinning the sport? But the reality of the matter is that physiology exists, whichever sport you're playing.” “It is a very rare occasion in a team sport where you are short on the sport-specific exposure of chemistry” “Sprinting speed is scaffolding for team sports. We can't build it and then let it go, because if we let it go, then the percentage we're working at when running goes up” “The three metrics alongside team sport key training metrics I'm looking at are where's the sprinting speed? where's the MAS? where's the critical speed?” “Athletes need to be exposed to all the stimulus, from low intensity to sprinting speed, probably for 18 months, two years at the low end, for us to be confident, this is the type of profile an athlete is.” “The key metric for low and moderate intensity work is the effort, the internal effort, not the external speed and the answer is whatever speed elicits a five or six out of 10 feeling” SHOWNOTES 1) Gareth's exploration of the anaerobic speed reserve which has taken him from the UK to NZ to Canada 2) The framework for conditioning and importance of athlete profiling 3) The relevance of middle-distance track events and their training for field sports 4) Getting a clear characterization of what is happening in technical-tactical training sessions and unlearning “classical” physiology 5) Assessing the anaerobic speed reserve in athletes and the practical application of profiling 6) The interplay between critical speed and maximal aerobic speed or velocity VO2max and Gareth's preferences for measuring both 7) How to use the ASR ratio as a screen of “spread” and benchmarking sprint and endurance physiology 8) Principles versus models and the value of holding principles as loosely as possible until you understand exactly what type of athlete you are dealing with PEOPLE MENTIONED Peter Weyand Phil Bellinger Veronica Billat Phil Scott

In addition to his commitments in surfing, Cohen is also an assistant strength and conditioning coach and sports scientist for the Queensland women's State of Origin team. With a multifaceted background, Cohen is dedicated to optimising athlete performance and giving back to the S&C industry. QUOTES “My footy coach at the time, Frank Baker, was Dan Baker's brother and he was talking to me one afternoon about what I wanted to do after school and he started telling me about what his brother did, working at the Broncos, strength and power coach. And I was like, is this a job?!” “So when I started at sprint kayaking, Worko gave me the opportunity to write a program for Kenny Wallace. And I remember I spent all night and I was reading all the research and then I've delivered it to him and he's gone, no, I don't do those exercises. So I've walked away from it, just defeated! And Worko has gone to me, did you talk to him before you wrote that program or did you just go to the theory? So that was a perfect lens for why the practical experience was so important.” “So it really makes our job about the need for engagement with the athletes. Engagement's our biggest currency and that engagement allows us to educate them and then a lot of our job is educating and giving these athletes all the tools that they need to be successful wherever they are, whether they're local or they're on the other side of the world.” “I've found that athletes that are proficient in the counter movement jump, have the ability to generate more speed and are getting good scores in smaller waves” “Whenever I'm writing programs, I'm always thinking what's the best exercise for the athlete, or what's the exercise that I can easily implement into their travel program. So we'll have a Monday, Wednesday strength and power session planned at the gym but if that doesn't work out, they'll then go to their body weight sessions that could easily be done in a hotel room using their bags and bands.” SHOWNOTES 1) Cohen's journey from becoming a sparky in a small QLD mining town to a strength & conditioning coach for Surfing Australia 2) The balance between practical and theoretical experience in learning the S&C craft 3) Understanding surfing as a sport and the role strength & conditioning has to play in a surfers development 4) The nature of working with surfers and the industry and the importance of athlete engagement and education in surfing 5) The key strength & conditioning focuses for performance in surfing and how this may be manipulated based on different wave profiles 6) The importance of paddle speed and conditioning for surfers and key tests and test standards for surfing athletes 7) Why having a plan A, plan B and plan C in S&C programming is essential for surfers and the programming template at Surfing Australia PEOPLE MENTIONED Dan Baker Deb Savage John Mitchell Glen Workman Ken Wallace Nick Winkleman

As the Moms for Liberty website states, “school counselors are the most radical department in K-12 today.” ASCA works tirelessly to enact a Leftist agenda of CRT, gender equity, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and more in schools across the country and our state by setting guidelines and training school counselors.  It seems there are no limits to the length progressives are willing to go to influence and corrupt the minds and hearts of children – all behind the backs of trusting American parents.

How can we create holiday outreach programs that truly lift up our students, without compromising their dignity? Join me, Steph Johnson, and let's discuss the heart of compassionate holiday outreach. We'll explore practical, ethical strategies that make a real impact, especially for students facing economic challenges or homelessness. Together, we'll look at what works (and what doesn't) with programs like coat drives and gift trees, and how we can avoid the common pitfalls that sometimes reinforce the very barriers we're trying to break.It takes more than just good intentions to plan a successful holiday outreach program: it takes foresight, collaboration, and a solid game plan. We'll walk through the essential steps for organizing an initiative that hits home, from early planning and community buy-in to volunteer coordination and mindful promotion. With a little strategic thinking and support from resources like the School for School Counselors Mastermind Initiatives, even the smallest contributions can make a huge difference. Let's make this holiday season not just a warm memory for our students, but a meaningful experience for the whole school community.GET THE FREE OUTREACH PLANNING GUIDE HEREStart planning now to ensure a rewarding holiday outreach effort.00:00 Introduction: Are Your Holiday Outreach Efforts Effective?03:18 Empowering vs. Reinforcing Challenges04:24 Special Populations and Holiday Stress07:51 Coordinating Outreach Efforts09:41 Aligning Outreach with Ethical Guidelines10:49 Inclusive Giving: Everyone Can Contribute13:12 Creating a Successful Holiday Outreach Program21:14 Sharing Success and Impact*******References/Resources:American School Counselor Association (2016).

Paul Comfort is a Professor of Strength and Conditioning at the University of Salford (UK) and an adjunct professor at Edith Cowan University (Australia). Paul is a founder member and accredited member of the UKSCA and was a board member of the NSCA from 2020-2023. He regularly consults with numerous team sports and has authored / co-authored >150 peer reviewed journal articles. His research focuses on training methods to enhance sports performance and the assessment of force production characteristics to monitor acute and chronic changes in neuromuscular function. Paul is also co-editor of the textbooks, ‘Advanced Strength and Conditioning: an evidence-based approach', ‘Performance Assessment for strength and Conditioning', ‘Laboratory Manual for Strength and Conditioning' and recently edited the 2nd edition of the ‘Developing Power' for the NSCA QUOTES “So one of the things we need to know is not just the what's the maximum force generating capacity, but how quickly can you produce that?” “Normally we do some form of maximal isometric test and we'd also do a ballistic test, something like a counter movement jump, and then a reactive or rebound type test, whether that's a 10-5 test, a drop jump, counter movement rebound jump. They've all got some limitations with them, but we'll do some form of plyometric and reactive tests so that we've really tested across that breadth of force production capabilities that people might get within sport” “If you've got velocity at take-off, that determines your jump height so you don't need to report velocity at take-off if you're got jump height” “Power doesn't determine jump height. It only explains around about 50 to 60% of jump height and it can change. You can actually have a decrease in power with an increase in jump height, which sounds really counterintuitive.” “Look at the published data but also then make sure, right, did they use the same force plates? Did they use the same software that you're using? With the software set up have they analysed the data in the same way?” “Biggest thing is make sure that whatever you're doing, you're standardising what you're doing and you're trying to compare to data, which is as close to what you do in terms of your testing protocols, so how you cue the athlete, how you coach the athlete, but also how the data is analysed” SHOWNOTES 1) Paul's background in strength and conditioning and update since last episode 2) The basics of measuring force production in athletes 3) Upper body options for force production assessment including the ASH Test 4) Paul's preference of the more common lower body force plate assessments like the IMTP or IsoSquat 5) The best metrics to use across isometric, ballistic and reactive force production assessments and the importance of understanding net vs absolute force 6) Considerations around contact/contraction time in different jump assessments 7) Paul's thoughts on the use of force production tests for fatigue and readiness to train measures 8) The importance of starting simple and basic with testing and monitoring PEOPLE MENTIONED Greg Haff Tudor Bompa

And he just laughed and he goes, you gave us the option to make the best decision for ourselves.” “With tactical S&C, you have got to have a giant toolbox.

Ever wondered why some school counseling programs deliver long-lasting results while others fall flat? In this episode of the School for School Counselors podcast, host Steph Johnson addresses the critical need for evidence-based practices in the field of school counseling. Though counselor-created resources are popular, Johnson emphasizes the importance of moving beyond these kinds of resources commonly found online. She discusses the insufficiency of peer-reviewed research in current school counseling interventions and offers reliable alternatives such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based interventions, and established curriculums like Second Step and MindUP. Additionally, Johnson highlights the potential harm of inadequately researched resources found on platforms like Teachers Pay Teachers. She provides practical advice on where to find validated interventions and underscores the value of collecting long-term data to assess their effectiveness.If you truly want to be a better school counselor, listen in for actionable insights to elevate your school counseling practices, backed by the power of evidence-based approaches that truly make a difference in students' lives.Mentioned in This Episode:School for School Counselors MastermindResources:American School Counselor Association (2019).
