I'm elated to introduce Brittney Bearden to The CVASPS family in this week's episode of The Podcast. Britt has done some fantastic work with our guys over the past three years helping them to transform their nutrition routines. In the 33-minute discussion Brittney and I get into: 1)     What drove her to go into sports nutrition and how the education steps to get licensed impacted how she practices today. 2)     What is truly involved in how we select food, and how important it is to individualize nutrition programs based on the specific athlete. 3)     The value in understanding where the athlete is in their nutrition voyage, and working with them to build from there. 4)     Where the “line” is for where strength coaches may step out of their scope of practice, and what issues could arise if we over step our boundaries. A huge thank you to Brittney Bearden for joining us today. She has been a huge addition to our group and has done great work helping our guys better understand how they fuel themselves, and also puts out awesome stuff so make sure you give her a follow @sportrdbritt on Instagram. I'm sure you'll find a have a ton of value in the content she's putting out. I can't thank you enough for listening to The Podcast, and I hope you enjoyed the show.

The topic of personal finance has gone from something I”ve been afraid to talk about to now one of my favorite topics of discussion, and a lot of that is because of these three books.

This week I got the pleasure of catching up with Daniel Marshall to discuss the on boarding process with new athletes. After a brief run down of how he got to ASU he dives right into his initial onboarding evaluations, including the what’s and why’s behind the evaluations, moments he observes, and metrics he looks at. He then shares with us how these impact their training and how understanding the psychological aspect of who the athlete is can help drive training decisions and improve buy in. Marsh then dives into the role of strengths and weaknesses in athletes, and where those can drive training for athletes.

Recently I had the opportunity to talk eastern medicine with Mike Guadango. After a intro how Mike got into training, we dive right into where the idea of acupuncture came from. This leads us down the rabbit hole of what acupuncture has taught him about what we, as coaches, can do better. Many of these issues revolve around our need to prove our worth, driving us to push athletes further then may be required for elite performance. These lessons stem from his time working with elite and pro athlete’s and seeing how doing work with them to feel better was more impactful for performance then any key performance indicators we tie to training. We finish off discussing the role of teaching skills in training, and where we may or may not truly make an impact.

This week I had the opportunity to discuss the development of a long term athletic development model with Rick Franzblau. After a quick run down of how he got down to Clemson we discuss how longevity in one location has helped us each develop the thoughts and processes that we are trying to continue to build upon at our institutions. He then shares with us how the model that he’s working on at Clemson got started, includes what was the driving factor behind the evolutions to this model. He then shares with us a pretty in-depth breakdown of their progressions in their model, where there are some places where they individualize the program, and how different teams move at different paces. He also runs down the rabbit hole of technology, the pros and con’s of it, and the importance of the strength coach understanding what the metrics mean and how to impact them. Rick has developed an ever evolving but scaleable LTAD program, and gives some really great insight into each aspect of it that can really help each of us reflect a bit on what we are doing and possible ways to improve how we evaluate what we are doing.

I don’t know about you, but all of this has pushed me to my edge of sanity a few times. As tired as I am and how stressful this all was, I’m still super excited to get back at it. With that in mind, how much better can I be for the athletes if I find a way to recover a bit? That’s why I’m taking a vacation and trying to find a way to decompress, and am hoping you can too.

We are joined this week by Dr. Christine Na to talk weight lifting and returning from injury. After a quick intro we get into how, like many coaches, an injury that she experienced impacted her education path. Having herself be a test subject was a great learning experience that truly drove her to passion of passing this on. This complete reevaluation of how she was moving, and deeper dive into how to get her issues “corrected” so she could continue to progress as a weight lifter. She gives us a brief overview of what she looks for when she evaluates athletes, and how individuality in how we move is so vital. Enjoy the content?

Tying into that we discuss mentors, what they have taught her, and things she has brought from each of her stops on the way out to LA. She then dives into how being a single sport strength coach helped her learn better ways to find solutions to make sure the team is moving in the right direction.

“The predictions that a periodized structure tries to make, based on assumptions of fitness equaling tactical ability, they just don’t work for team sports.” “If we can get outside of our space, recognize a theory for it’s base assumptions, and then dig into the minds of people who have more perspective, I think that’s something that can allow us to start making progress on chipping away at what transfer looks like and what periodization looks like in teams.” This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance.

This includes some of the assumptions made by traditional periodization theories, and how those theories that originated in track and field may have limitations in team sport. This leads him to his main thought on periodization, and that is that there are plenty of theories that exist, and with all the new tools we have access to for us to better evaluate and test those theories to better connect between theory and practitioners and drive better conversation to uncover the unknown unknowns., ENJOY THE CONTENT?

Talking monitoring and jump evaluations with Karim Derqaoui in this weeks episode of The Podcast. After a brief run down of how Karim got to Vald, we dive into how being a coach first has impacted how he views the “tech” and the metrics that he utilizes to assess athletes. This includes his three step model that he looks at when discussing monitoring decisions with coaches and athletes. He also shares with us examples of metrics he would look at for athletes in sports, and what those metrics would mean to him and the athlete that he is assessing. Next, Karim discusses the role of collaboration, why he feels it’s so important, and where he’s seen successes and failures with it. Karim is a fantastic resource, not just because of his knowledge, which is world class, but also his experience as a coach make his insight absolutely priceless when it comes to monitoring metrics and how “the team behind the team” can work together to find better ways to be better for their athletes.

I got to sit down and catch up with Chris Hays and talk developing as a coach in this weeks episode of The Podcast. After a quick step by step of how he got to Coppin State, we dive right into how growth doesn’t have to occur because you switch positions, but is something you should be doing where you’re at. He shares with us some of the extra roles he had at Coppin last year, and how he’s been able to maximize his role as a performance coach. Having to do some extraneous work initially at this position has been a huge learning experience for him, and one that he’s taken many positives away from that have helped him become a better. We then shift gears and talk about how his training focus has changed this year because of the pandemic, and what are the driving factors behind it. This includes how lessons learned throughout the pandemic will have a profound impact on his programming decisions moving forward. Enjoy the content?

I had the pleasure of sitting down to discuss the evolution from an athlete to a coach with Jena Ready in this weeks episode of The Podcast. The conversation starts right out with how she got into training, the role of her first strength coach in her love of the weight room, and how being a student athlete impacted her decision to become a coach. We then discuss the power of being given a chance, and how having the opportunity to be a head coach at a young age really helped us both evolve at a greater pace than we would have expected. We then go into how being involved with a large number of teams was vital to set the groundwork for our ability to dedicate our time to one team and provide more value. We finish off discussing what her experience as a college lacrosse player impacted her in both personally and as a coach. Enjoy the content? Then you should check out The Strength Coach Network!

Today we are joined by the Head Strength and Conditioning coach at North Scott High School in Eldridge Iowa, Tony Stewart. Tony, thanks for being with us today. Before we start, who is Tony Stewart? I’m a family guy, someone who takes care of my family and I like to translate that to my kids at school. 1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career? Coming to CVASPS and meeting Dr. Yessis made me question how we were training our high school athletes. 2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why? Did I make a difference in kids lives? What happened with the election? 3) What’s your escape? I enjoy digging into politics and dive into my own faith. Enjoy the content?

“I’m not going to train those kids like powerlifters, I’m going to take some principles from the powerlifting side and apply it.” This episode of The Podcast is brought to you by Exxentric, the makers of the kBox and kPulley.

I had the pleasure of sitting down and discussing training and running a powerlifting team with Guillermo Blanco in this weeks episode of The Podcast. After a run down of how he got to McKendree we roll right into the world of D2 sports, and how there are similarities and differences to both D3 and D1. This leads into a great discussion about what he feels his most important role is in the training process, any why he feels it’s so important. We then discuss the team he is a head coach for, the Powerlifting team. This includes the training and meet program, how that is set up through out the year, and how academics impact this year round sport. Guillermo’s coaching and the uniqueness of a powerlifting team is great insight into how we can work better to develop better training, and even use their “ideas” to provide better means for our athlete’s to improve.

“Having progressions and regressions allows you to take a step back and have a conversation based on what they are really good at and having success with and what stye maybe are having a hard time with.” This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance. Vald’s constant drive to help coaches find better information to drive more educated directions is second to none. Check out this weeks Metric Minute and make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.com One challenge for strength and conditioning coaches is finding ways to individualize the programming that is both efficient and able to be handled for us in the group setting while still keeping the “team” atmosphere in training. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share three different ways we are looking at doing just that, that hopefully can even drive better conversations and more collaboration in the athlete’s general physical preparation phase.

“I got to see how much I didn’t know as a practitioner, and that really motivated me to somehow find a way to give back to the community.” What’s up everybody and welcome the 80th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by Antonio Squillante, of the Clinical Exercise Research Center at the University of Southern California and faculty member at Setanta College. Antonio, thanks for being with us today. Before we start, who is Antonio Squillante? A former American football player who is from Italy who came to The States to coach high level athletes, who has recently shifted more to the academic side and working with the NSCA. 1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career? The summer of 2016 at Olympic Trials in Eugene Oregon, witnessing other high level coaches preparing athletes for their events. 2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why? How much does strength really matter when it comes to performance in sport? 3) What’s your escape? What keeps me grounded is prioritizing things in life and spending time with family.
