310: Andrew Sheaff on A Fusion of Track and Swimming Concepts in Athletic Speed Development

Just Fly Performance Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 9, 2022 75:44 Very Popular


Today's episode features swim coach Andrew Sheaff.  Andrew is an assistant swimming coach at the University of Virginia, winners of the last two NCAA women's championships.  In addition to swim coaching, Sheaff has an extensive background in strength and conditioning, including an internship under Buddy Morris.  A collegiate swimmer at Pittsburgh, Sheaff was named the Senior Athlete of Distinction. He was a four-time Big East Academic All-Star and a four-time University Scholar Athlete.  He writes on numerous aspects of coaching education at his website, coachandrewsheaff.com . A quote on Andrew's blog that made a lot of sense to me was a quote by former cricket player and ESPN writer, Ed Smith, that “Because the important things are hard to coach, it is tempting to take refuge in the small, irrelevant things because they are easy.”  I find this to be extremely relevant to many approaches to athletic development where drills are often over-emphasized and over-controlled, while the actual sporting skill is often left relatively un-changed from season to season. I have found it a common theme, in modern coaching, to attempt to overly “control” an athlete's technique through the over-use of drills, exact positions, and discrete instructions.  This can range from cues in the weight room (butt back, chest out, through the heels!) to the track (heel up, knee up, toe up!) to exact arm positions for swimming movements. On the show today, Andrew speaks on elements of control vs. athlete empowerment in coaching.  He talks on training methods that lead to lasting change in technique and performance, with an emphasis on the constraints-led approach.  This podcast was a fun cross-pollination of ideas between the worlds of swimming, track and physical preparation, with important concepts for any coach or athlete.  Whether you are interested in speed training, technical development, or just overall coaching practice, you are sure to find this a really informative conversation.

Timestamps and Main Points: 4:51 – Why Andrew got into both physical preparation/S&C, as well as swim coaching, in his coaching career 6:35 – Why Andrew believes swim training remained so “old school” (based on large yardages and distances) for so long, compared to track and field 8:53 – Why so many coaches take refuge in the small/easy/controllable things, when more focus is needed on bigger, but more rewarding, real problems in athletics 12:10 – How coaches seeking “too much control” plays out in the world of swimming 15:36 – Basics of how Andrew uses constraints to allow swimmers problem solving opportunities, vs. trying to control smaller elements of the stroke 23:46 – Bondarchuk's “Push the Hammer” cue, and the power of slightly ambiguous coaching instructions that don't over-control the athlete's movements 31:28 – How the unique situation of training in a 25 yard or 50 meter pool, can create more interesting training options for swim athletes in terms of constraints 35:13 – How Andrew uses constraints that are purely for exploratory perspective, versus constraints from a timed perspective 41:23 – How fatiguing particular body sections or muscles can offer a unique constraint in both swimming, or land activities such as plyometrics 46:04 – The spectrum of “boredom tolerance” between athletes, and how Andrew manages this in practice 51:58 – Why and how Andrew thinks more “standard volume” type training methods can be successful, and if they are sustainable or not

Buddy Morris is a force of nature this is an unvarnished conversation with colorful language abound. Buddy holds nothing back in his honest approach to four decades of sports development. In this particular conversation, I allowed coach to dive into his stream of consciousness and take me along for the ride. We discussed athletic development at the professional level and the importance of variation. He discusses the value of sprinting above all other modalities especially in a year without a lot of contact with NFL professionals. He explains his worry about personal trainers and therapists who might not be entirely altruistic in their motives when dealing with multi-million dollar athletes.

Our guests today are Mike Guadango and Alex Brooker.  Mike and Alex (“Brooker”) met when Alex interned for Mike at DeFranco’s gym a decade ago, and they now have a podcast together, “The Mike and Brooker Show”, in addition to their coaching careers. Alex is the owner and operator of Pathfinder, a private training service focused on performance psychology and physical preparation for professional athletes.  In addition to traditional schooling, Alex is now pursuing his PhD in Self-Hypnosis at the University of Bern.  Mike is currently a Coach, Writer & Owner at Freak Strength.  He has been mentored by coaching greats such as Buddy Morris and James Smith, and started his career working at DeFranco’s gym.  Mike has coached levels of athletes from many different professional sports to Olympic medalists to pre-pubescent athletes, as well as consulting for high caliber athletes and coaches worldwide. As an ever-optimistic individual, it’s important for me to have conversations with those who have a different way of looking at what actually works in the world of sports performance.  In the coaching world, it is extremely easy to have worked with an athlete who has achieved a high result, and then rationalize the factors that led to their success.  It is very easy for us all as coaches to think of our own training as highly optimal, but a question to ask is how often and effectively we truly challenge our reasoning? In looking at training closely, it is helpful to fully understand the power of belief, as well as placebo effects in not only training, but also pain science and rehabilitation.  Understanding human adaptation to training and rehab stimulus requires, not only an understanding of the body, but also of the mind. In today’s podcast, Mike and Alex “Brooker” talk about how they have evolved themselves as coaches, moving into the realms of hypnosis/mental training, acupuncture and rehabilitation.  We spend a lot of time chatting about the power of belief and the ability of the mind to supercede a “poor” training program, and how the fundamentals of adaptation style can be seen in rudimentary rehab.  Finally, Mike, Brooker and I spend some time discussing some training points such as play, competition in training, and training transfer.  This was a fun show with speakers of 3 clearly diverse viewpoints, which always makes for great discussion.

Today’s podcast features speed and strength coach Brandon Byrd.  Brandon Byrd is the owner of Byrd’s Sports Performance in Orefield, Pennsylvania.  Brandon is an alumni of the University of Pittsburgh and has learned from elite coaches such as Louie Simmons, Charlie Francis, Buddy Morris and others. Brandon’s unique blend of rotating training stimuli, and his competitive, PR driven environment has elicited noteworthy speed, power and strength gains in his athletes. If you follow Brandon on social media, you’ll see the regular occurrence of sprint and jump records from his athletes.  Brandon has some of the highest-output training out there in his ability to cultivate speed and strength. I always enjoy digging into the training of elite coaches, into the nuts and bolts that drives their systems.  Some of the running themes on this show have been ideas such as the rotation of big training stimuli from week to week (such as in EP 190 with Grant Fowler), the power of resisted sprinting (EP 12 and 63 with JB Morin and Cameron Josse), overspeed sprinting (EP 51 with Chris Korfist), and then the power of competition and PR’s (EP 135 with Tony Holler). This episode with coach Brandon Byrd truly brings all of those elements together in a way that gets some of the best training results you’ll find.  On today’s podcast, Brandon goes into the core of his system, and how he rotates his sprint efforts based on the needs of the athlete, to get the most out of their system.  He also goes into his background with Westside Barbell, and the elements he learned from Louie Simmons that go into his training, as well as strength pre-requisites he carries for his athletes to optimize their readiness for the strength and speed program. (Note that when Brandon is talking about fly 10’s he is talking yards, not meters) Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. View more podcast episodes at the podcast homepage Timestamps and Main Points 5:00 Brandon’s main influences in athletic performance and speed training 11:30 How principles of West-side Barbell training show up in Brandon’s sprint training system 22:45 How Brandon rotates uphill and downhill sprinting to blast personal bests in speed 29:30 How Brandon uses wickets in context of his speed and sprint training 39:30 Concepts in using resisted sprinting, as well as jump training in Brandon’s program 45:20 More specifics on how Brandon rotates and progresses his speed and sprint training throughout the training year, and also how he modulates this for stride length, vs. stride frequency style athletes 58:50 What Brandon’s weekly sprint setup looks like for athletes 1:07.20 The power of “PR”s in Brandon’s system and how that feeds into his entire training session “Once you can control 90% of the force-velocity curve, you can create great athletes” “I don’t think the FMS is a great thing, because when you are sitting statically and not under high forces or high loads, everyone is going to look great, but once you are high speeds in sprinting, or high loads in lifting, you are going to see some weaknesses” “I believe your technique in sprinting is determined by your weaknesses… once you fix their weaknesses, then it is easier to fix technique” “Glute, hamstring, and opposite QL, those must fire explosively and fast, and they all must be strong… when I start an athlete, the first thing I do test is that QL” “In my gym, if you can’t do so much in a 45 degree hyperextension, I can’t put a bar on your back” “The body is scared to go faster… it hates change, so you have to force change by changing modalities… regular sprinting can’t do all those things (in context of using uphill, downhill and resisted sprinting to help break barriers)” “65-75% of the kids I get are heel strikers; they have to run fo...

Today’s episode features Mike Guadango, coach and owner at Freak Strength in Oakland, New Jersey.  Mike has mentored under coaching legends such as Buddy Morris, James “The Thinker” Smith, and Joe DeFranco.  He has coached athletes from NFL, MLB, NBA, MLL, Rugby League, Rugby Union and Olympic medalists to pre-pubescent athletes.  including 10+ NFL Super bowl Champs, 10+ All-Pro/Pro-bowl selections, 5+ College National Champions, 10+ Division 1a All-Americans, 20+ Collegiate All-Americans & players from every Division 1 conference. Mike’s coaching success aside, he is one of the most authentic and transparent coaches in the industry.  As a field, we are always looking to push forward into more efficient and effective systems that serve athletes to a greater capacity.  Mike has been transforming himself into a “one stop shop” as a coach, and upcoming acupuncture practitioner that allows him a greater versatility in his role in the high performance spectrum. If you listen to this show often, you know that I value real and authentic conversations, and this talk is the epitome of that.  For this episode, Mike talks extensively on the role of the strength coach in context of high performance sport coaching, and the potential of the physical preparation industry to evolve into something greater. He also discusses things like his own personal journey in sports performance, and how he now views athletic development and training.  This show ties into James Smith’s global dynamics model (of which many previous podcast guests are evolving towards) and offers great insight into the future of sport training from a philosophical perspective. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. Key Points What led Mike into getting a degree in acupuncture as a sports performance coach Mike’s journey over the last decade that have changed his thoughts on the goal of sports performance How little we actually know of training in regards to the grand scheme of things How Mike’s views on barbell and maximal strength training has changed over time Mike’s view on the role of a strength coach and who should be assigning GPP exercises and work loads in a high performance program How Mike performs his movement training for his athletes to help them feel and perform at their best “The bigger a business gets, the more inefficient it becomes” “More tools in the tool box, now there are less people that need to man the tools” “If you asked me a question 6 years ago, I had an absolute answer” “It takes 10 years to start learning someone else’s techniques, then you spend another 10 years developing your own techniques, then it takes another 10 years you spend honing your techniques, and then you teach” “The whole industry is a big salesy industry, and no-one is doing anything new” “Unless you know your why, there’s no reason to be doing it” “Isn’t that the goal, use as little stimuli as possible to yield the same result” “Getting stronger is as easy as falling out of a boat and hitting water….As long as you aren’t dealing with weightlifters and powerlifters, let’s not overcomplicate it” “If you get one leg strong… aren’t you getting both legs strong? We are splitting hairs here with so much stuff.” “Because we don’t know enough, stay the f^@k out of their way and let the athlete perform” “What is the true measurement of the exercises we are doing, why are we doing them, why are we so married to them, what are they going to do?” “If an actual skills coach was able to learn and apply what we do we (strength coaches) are done; from a general standpoint I don’t think there is a need for a strength coach.” “The skills coaches should be able to acquire this information with relatively little effort, what I think is that strength coaches are going ...

Before this, he served as a strength & conditioning coach at the University of Missouri since 2004, and before that at Arizona State University, University of Tulsa, and Missouri State University. Mann is internationally renowned for his work in autoregulation of strength training, specifically with Velocity Based Training and the Autoregulatory Progressive Resistance Exercise method (APRE). Mann splits his time between teaching, researching in sports performance enhancement, working as the Research Director for the Human Performance Institute, and working as the Director for Performance Research with the Department of Athletics. Quotes “You get it at school because kids are cruel” “It all started because of a birthmark and inquisitive nature and progressed from there” “When I do that (increase eccentric strength), I see a huge increase in the athletes ability to change direction” “Some of the things that I think now, I would have laughed at in my younger days” “Mostly what I use the velocity (measures) for, is speed-strength & strength-speed” “For the VBT, I honestly think it does not matter what style you use, what matters is the feedback” “I will fight with them to make sure they get the extra repetitions in the gym… I really don't want to have to fight with them and make them do something before they even start” “When we started implementing velocity (VBT), we had an additional two years of increasing power” “If change of direction deficit is whack, then they’ll probably need more eccentric work” “Every time we have an (academic) test week, our HRV goes into the shitter” Shownotes 1) The ins and outs of APRE and where it comes from 17:35 2) How the APRE method fits into an athlete training continuum (1 x 20, APRE, Triphasic, Concurrent/Block, Bondachurk) 24:05 3) Bryan’s preference for linear position transducers (LPT) 29:23 4) Travelling with Gymaware and problems with airport security 33:08 5) Practical implementation of VBT with small and large groups, velocity and the Bosco strength continuum 36:25 6) Using velocity loss as markers of lifting quality to increase desired muscle cross sectional area and Werner Gunthor 44:14 7) The use of pre-training monitoring tests (hand dynos, CMJ, wellness questionnaire) and why he doesn’t use them anymore if they cant be embedded into the program 50:04 8) Underlying theory for improving speed in athletes e.g. rate coding and why absolute strength stops giving transfer after a certain period 54:13 9) Levels of absolute strength “needed” for athletes e.g. double bodyweight squat 1:00:06 10) Needs analysis for sports and Bryan’s testing battery (CMJ, IMTP, 10/20m, 505) 1:02:30 11) A low cost practical Force Velocity assessment 1:09:21 12) How getting piss drunk helped him stumble on the effects of mental stress on injury incidence 1:13:14 13) Christain Cantwell’s (Olympian Shot Putter) training exploits 1:26:40 People mentioned 1) Leo Matveyev 2) Michael Yessis @dryessis 3) Robb Rodgers 4) Rick Perry Chicago Bears 5) Joe Kenn @bighousepower 6) Pat Ivey 7) Dan Austin 8) Stephen Sayers 9) Mary-Beth Brown 10) Kendrick Knight 11) Thomas DeLorne 12) Yuri Verkhoshansky 13) Sophia Nimphius @docsoph 14) Cal Dietz @cal.dietz 15) Christian Cantwell 16) Natalia Verkhoshansky 17) Antoly Bondarchuk 18) Henk Kraajienhoff @henkkraaijenhof 19) Buddy Morris @buddymorris412 20) Tudor Bompa 21) Nick Gill @nicgill_health_and_performance 22) Werner Gunthor 23) Valerie Adams @valerieadamas84 24) Jeremy Sheppard @sheppardcoach 25) Tim Suchomel @drtsuchomel 26) Mike Stone 27) Phil Wagner @drphilwagner 28) Robert Newton @profrobnewton 29) Mike McGuigan @mike_mcguigan

DeMayo is directly responsible for the strength training, conditioning, and flexibility development of the men and women’s basketball teams.

It’s general exercise, keep getting strong at it until you’re stuck.” 14:55“You have to own the position… If you want your kids to hit squat depth or whatever it is but you don’t teach them how to be in that bottom position, I think you’re asking for problems.” 21:53“The principle behind everything is to get a little better each time.” 24:41Suggested reading:Conscious Coaching by Brett Bartholomew 29:241 x 20 by Michael Yessis 30:02Supertraining by Mel Siff 30:11Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe 31:50“I think if you’re starting… the one thing you have to be willing to do, and a lot of us have done wrong, is that we don’t have the ability to say no.” 32:41“Shut up and listen.” 33:39“There’s nothing like a Buddy Morris rant.” 34:46“The Rock said it best; ‘sometimes you just have to know your role and shut your mouth’”. 35:39“It’s years of work to just understand what you’re doing.” 36:57“What we do is really important but what we do does not trump what the sport coach does or what the athletes do.” 38:12“When there’s a job that’s posted that means that other people are working more because it’s open so calling and emailing isn’t probably your best bet to inquire about it.” 42:35“There’s got to be something better we can do than use exercise as punishment.” 45:46

Buddy Morris is the Arizona Cardinals strength and conditioning coach. Previously with the Cleveland Browns where he worked with current Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians, Morris returned to the NFL after working at the collegiate level for 19 years. A native of South Park, PA, Morris has an extensive background in strength and conditioning dating back to his first job at his alma mater, the University of Pittsburgh, where he began his coaching career in 1980 in the first of his three stints with the Panthers. He worked under head coach Jackie Sherrill from 1980-89 and aided in the development of future NFL Hall of Famers Dan Marino, Rickey Jackson, Chris Doleman and Russ Grimm. During that period, Morris helped train 13 first round NFL draft picks and 15 first-team All-Americans. After working as the wellness director for the Horizon Hospital System in Sharon, PA from 1989-97, Morris returned to Pittsburgh and worked from 1997-2001. During his second tenure at Pitt, the Panthers made three bowl appearances: the 1997 Liberty Bowl, the 2000 Insight.com Bowl and the 2001 Tangerine Bowl. Morris also developed the moniker for the Panthers strength and conditioning program, “The Pitt Iron Works.” In 2009, Muscle & Fitness Magazine name Morris’ gym one of the 10 toughest in America. Morris then joined Butch Davis and the Cleveland Browns for three seasons before working at the University of Buffalo in 2006 as its Director of Sports Performance. After one season in Buffalo, he went back for his third stint at Pitt under head coach Dave Wannstedt where he worked from 2007-10. The Panthers made the 2008 Sun Bowl and the 2009 Meineke Car Care Bowl during that period. Following his third stop at Pitt, Morris and his family opened a private gym in Buffalo called the New York Sports Center where he worked with athletes at all levels through personal training, group fitness classes and injury rehabilitation. Morris worked with Roger Kingdom, the Cardinals assistant strength & conditioning coach and 1984 and 1988 Olympic gold medalist in 110-meter hurdles. He also helped develop NFL Hall of Fame running back Curtis Martin and Pro Bowl guard Ruben Brown while both were at Pitt. He graduated from Pittsburgh in 1980 after lettering for four years (1977-80) in track and field.The SMARTER Team Training Audio Interview Series has been developed to share insights from some of the best in the industry.

Knowing where you are going as a coach is essential, but you also have to know how you are going to get there. For example NFL players need to be explosive and need to train explosivity. But how should they do that? Olympic lifting? Jumping? Medicine ball work? Something else? Each method has its benefit, but they all come with costs too and as a coach you have to search for the ways to get the most benefit for the lowest price. And on this week's episode Nick and Martin have on Arizona Cardinals strength and conditioning coach Buddy Morris and start off by taking a look at this analysis.

Scott Umberger, Co-Owner and Head Physical Preperation Coach at Umberrger Performance   Topics Covered in this Podcast How Scott got started in the field Basical Philosphy of Developmeing ther Athlete Social Media's influence on the profession One of the issues with CrossFit and Coaching Training youth athletes The nature of youth sports Asseesment and evaluation of Athletes Sprint and deceleration mechanics APRE procotocl in the private sector Scott’s passion for performance enhancement started at an early age, stemmed by his desire to receive a Division I scholarship.   Sports Science Knowledge   One year interning at University of Pittsburgh under renowned coach, Buddy Morris changed everything. After working with Buddy,Scott spent two years working as Todd Hamer’s Assistant Strength & Condition Coach at Robert Morris University training 600 of their athletes.   The influence of James Smith, who is regarded as the leading American expert on Soviet Sport Science,  led Scott to an understanding of Sports Science held by handful of Americans.  Since Sport Science doesn’t exist in the U.S.(Scott confirmed this during his exploration of a PhD at PSU).  Scott’s knowledge has been obtained via mentorships, self study of his small library of translated foreign materials, videos, seminars with foreign Sports Scientist, and personal correspondence with leading experts and Sport Scientists.  This knowledge of non-U.S. Sports Science is essential because of the understanding of human performance that this non US research has uncovered through the study of 20,000+ elite athletes.  The funding for this kind of research does not exist in the US.  This monetary investment in Sport Science research is one of the very few ways that the world can be thankful towards communistic regimes.   Speed   Attempting to “get the edge” on the competition, Scott read and has tried everything that he could get his hands on.  Taken under the wing of D1 track coach, Waddie Freeman his senior year of high school, Scott reduced his 40 yard dash time from 4.6 to 4.4. Scott played football, baseball, and ran track in high school. This led him to compete at the Division I level in football and track at Robert Morris University.  Scott’s personal experience teamed with his extensive knowledge of the late sprint coach Charlie Francis’s methodologies present a very unique mix of knowledge and practice experience regarding speed development.   Strength   Scott spent three months training at the strongest powerlifting gym in the U.S., Westside Barbell.  There he gained an advanced knowledge of the three powerlifts, the bench, the squat, and the dead lift.  He also learned about the concept of strength and its application to specific athletic scenarios. Scott currently competes in the sport of power lifting and has dead lifted 635 and bench pressed 420 in competitions. He has also squatted 645 and bench pressed 505 in training at a drug free body weight of 192.   Resume   As part of his 17,000 hours in the trenches training experience, Scott has worked with over a 2,000 athletes and clients: • high school and college athletes • Male and female athletes in hockey, lacrosse, soccer, volleyball, football, basketball, softball, baseball, swimming, tennis, track. • Fitness/figure competitors • REAL Professional athletes (NHL, NFL, Arena Football , MLL&NLL-pro Lacrosse, World Championship Games.) • Olympic Silver Medalist- USA Olympic Woman’s Hockey Team • 3 All-Americans (track, swimming, hockey) • 2 Hobe Baker Trophy Finalist (Heisman Trophy of College Hockey) • A top 10 NCAA scorer in Men’s Hockey • FINA Master World Championship Qualifying Swimmer • ECAC/IC4A qualifying track hurdler • Professional Hockey, Basketball, and Soccer players in Europe(Finland and Italy) • Two Major D1 walk on football players- one who made OSU’s team when they were ranked #1 and WVU when they were top in the 20. • Celebrities- Country Music Superstar Martina McBride and Actor Jake Gyllenhaal   Scott practices what he preaches.  Research is fantastic but it is useless if it’s not applied in a real world setting.  Scott studies and applies knowledge on himself before having his athletes use it.  He’s squatted 650 lbs, dead lifted 635 lbs in competitions and bench pressed 505 in the gym at a body weight ranging between 190-200 lbs.  In August of 2013 he completed a Tough Mudder Race(which is consider the most legit race of it’s kind in the US) which is a 12 mile “mud run” with 20+ obstacles.   Though it’s Scott’s formal education(BS, MS) that enhanced his abilities as a coach, it’s the intensive study of  ”The Soviet Sports Science,” as well as Sport Science stemming from sources outside of the United States(primarily Premier League Soccer and Australian Sports Science) that have really separated him from the majority of the field.   Real world success with real athletes using his “in trenches training experience,”  as well as a unique blend of leadership and knowledge of legitimate non US Sport Science makes Scott a rare commodity as a physical preparation coach in the US.

Buddy Morris Interview Growing up in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, my heroes were Pittsburgh sports figures.  The Steelers were almost surreal to me as a fan and other than attending Jack Lambert's Football Camp and training camps in Latrobe, Pennsylvania; they were untouchable.  The University of Pittsburgh Football players were in fact more than just giants of the game, they were part of our culture.  Guys like Jim Sweeney, Bill Fralic, and Mark Stepnoski were friends of my older cousins and in some way, almost like big brothers to all of us playing pick-up football in the cobblestone streets of the Iron City.  Dan Mario played baseball for my grandfather up until his junior year at Pitt. And, all of us "yinzers" were heartbroken when Tony Dorsett started wearing a start on his helmet and played for America's team.  The icon who prepared most of those men was why, in a round-a-bout way, I became a strength and conditioning coach myself.  Buddy Morris has always been someone who most of us looked up to.  Even when he told you things you didn't want to hear about training and physical preparation.  Coach X became a staple of elitefts.com and videos of when Dave and Jim visited he and Mylo when they were coaching the Cleveland Browns still rank as some of the top learning experiences. If there is one thing that is evident is that Buddy Morris was meant to be a strength coach.  Buddy makes no apologies for being who he is. He has the knowledge and the experience to validate what he believes, while always questioning whether there is a better way to do things. Buddy knows it was, is, and will never be about him. "Buddy's one of the All-Timers, he helped start this profession," explains Joe Kenn, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach with the Carolina Panthers. "Nobody talks enough about Buddy being one of the pioneers." With over 3 decades of experience, no one can deny Buddy Morris' impact on the strength and conditioning profession and the athletes he has coached. Topics Covered in this Podcast Taking over at the University of Buffalo Outside influences on loading parameters Good players make good coaches GPP for the athlete Speed work and the strength deficit Combine training Collegiate vs. NFL training The age of the internet What Buddy has learned from Charlie Francis Who else has been influence for Coach X Speed Training for sport Advice for young coaches   Elitefts™ Sports Performance Podcast on iTunes Elitefts™ Iron Subcultrue Podcast on iTunes Download the ebook here! American Football Physical Preparation was written to expose football players, physical preparation and sport coaches, to the concepts of one of the original coaches of physical preparation for football, Buddy “Coach X” Morris. In this book, you will find information regarding the theory, methodology, bioenergetics, biodynamics, and bio-motor abilities, as they pertain to American Football. This information is unique, as it explains why football is an alactic-aerobic sport, which bio-motor abilities are most important, how biodynamics play into exercise selection, and how each team, side of the ball, position, and even individual, needs their own specific programming. In the final section of the book, you will find practical examples of training cycles, monthly blocks, training weeks, and individual workouts, all tailored for five distinct training groups: Line, Combo, Skill, Quarterback, and Kicker/Punter. As a whole, American Football Physical Preparation will give all readers an exclusive look, and insight, of how the training process is organized, programmed and implemented, in a large team setting for American Football. Buddy Morris is a strength and conditioning legend, bodybuilder, and rehab specialist who will run our Performance Center. He has over 31 years of experience in the strength and conditioning field. He has worked as the Head Strength Coach for the NFL Cleveland Browns as well as the Head Strength Coach for the University of Pittsburgh for 20+ years. He has coached 5 NFL Hall of Famers and trains NFL players year round. He is known nationwide and has contributed to numerous fitness magazines, books, and articles.
