In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Molly Binetti to discuss her success as a Sports Performance Coach, how she has blazed a trail forward, the principles she has used for developing champions and how you can do the same. Sports performance coach Molly Binetti brought her athlete-centered coaching philosophy to South Carolina in June 2018, and the Gamecocks immediately responded to her focus on a holistic development of mind, body and spirit. “Molly's passion for women's basketball was clear right off the bat, and that's the kind of energy we like in our program,” South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley said. “Her experience with basketball and other sports gives her great perspective, and her research background shows her commitment to her craft.” In her three seasons on the staff, Binetti's ability to connect with student-athletes and develop creative and competitive workouts has kept the Gamecocks engaged and on the court throughout the season. South Carolina enjoyed tremendous success in her tenure, especially in the postseason, collecting two SEC Tournament championships and advancing to the 2021 NCAA Final Four following a 2019 NCAA Sweet 16 run. Binetti joined the Gamecock staff after four seasons at Louisville working with volleyball, softball and women's tennis. She spent the first three of those seasons as the secondary sports performance coach for women's basketball as well. At Louisville, she focused on power development and applied sport technologies, a trend she continues at South Carolina. Prior to her tenure at Louisville, Binetti served as the sports performance coach for Purdue's women's tennis, men's and women's diving and cheerleading teams (2013-14). The Eau Claire, Wis., native has her Strength and Conditioning Coach certification from the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association and is listed as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and a Registered Strength and Conditioning Coach by the National Strength and Conditioning Association. She has contributed to two articles published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, both focused on the performance of elite women's basketball athletes. After earning her bachelor's degree in exercise physiology from Marquette in 2012, Binetti completed her master's in kinesiology and exercise science at Minnesota in 2013.

Tim is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with Distinction (CSCS,*D) and Registered Strength and Conditioning Coach (RSCC) through the NSCA and a Level I Performance Coach through USA Weightlifting. QUOTES “Accentuated Eccentric Loading (AEL) is prescribing an additional load that we can handle in the eccentric load before removing it in the concentric phase, and the other thing that has to be involved is pairing the eccentric and concentric phase so there is no delay between them” “The eccentric duration makes a big difference in the adaptation you will get with AEL” “If you were chasing strength from a loading standpoint, the gap between what is on the bar and what is on the weight releasers should be relatively small; however if I have a wider gap, that may favor RFD and power production” “With AEL, I would question is does the individual have the capacity to do it and do you need AEL on every repetition?” “One of things I would tell people first and foremost is when you are going to implement AEL 1) you don't have to do it with everything and you shouldn't be doing it with everything and 2) you're probably not going to be doing this over consecutive training blocks for a long period of time" SHOWNOTES 1) The update on what Tim's has been up to since our last episode (#31) 2) The ins and outs of Accentuated Eccentric Loading (AEL) and the benefits of using AEL 3) Why it is not always necessary to go supramaximal with athletes doing AEL and maintaining natural movement speed 4) The pros and cons of increasing the eccentric contraction duration e.g., tempo during training 5) AEL programming recommendations to target different training goals (e.g., hypertrophy, strength) 6) Practical advice for implementing AEL with weight releasers, dumbbells or other tools and the best upper body exercise variations for AEL 7) Different repetition schemes for AEL, moderating the influence on fatigue and why flywheel training is not necessarily AEL 8) Key aspects to programming AEL for athletes and factors that influence the time course of recovery for AEL 9) The benefits of keeping training simple for the vast majority of athletes and understanding the underpinning characteristics of how athletes achieve physical performances PEOPLE MENTIONED Jeremy Sheppard John Wagle John Hughes

They’ve got a couple others: Ken Ravizza works in the baseball setting a lot, but he’s been in other settings as well. To me, that’s that core group that does an absolute fantastic job [regarding mental toughness].” 26:47“US Lacrosse has been fantastic, I mean they’re really open to it and it’s great for us, great for them, great for the NSCA.” 36:45“We want to help people grow—that’s what it’s all about, you know, and if we want to do that, we’ve got to connect to people.” 37:35“If you can’t find something that’ll help you grow as a professional, you’re not really looking very hard at that point.” 41:34“There’s always something to gain and something to grow from no matter what presentation you sit in.” 41:40

They need to sleep.” 20:52“The award that means the most to me is the NSCA’s Lifetime Achievement award.” 22:56“The great ones adjust.” 25:44“We have 14 Registered Strength and Conditioning Coaches at Nebraska.” 29:45
