Today's podcast features coach Michael Zweifel. Michael is the special teams coordinator, defensive backs coach and co-defensive coordinator for the UW-La Crosse football team. He is the former owner of the “Building Better Athletes” performance center in Dubuque, Iowa. Michael was the all-time NCAA leading receiver with 463 receptions in his playing days at University of Dubuque. He is also a team member of the movement education group, “Emergence”. Michael is a multi-time appearing guest on the Just Fly Performance Podcast, speaking on elements of sport movement and skill, ecological dynamics and more. It is interesting to consider our current format of sports performance training (strength coaching sessions in the weight room, sport coaching on the field, and a substantial degree of separation between the two), and if our current model will be the same one seen in 20 or 50 years in training. Michael has always been in both the strength and skill side of athletic performance, but has recently moved to a skill-side only element, in his move to football coaching at The University of Wisconsin, LaCrosse. For the show today, Michael talks a bit about what led him to close down his private-sector sports performance business, and move into only football-coaching. He'll chat on the sport movement and ecological dynamics principles that he took with him into that football coaching job, and his vision for the strength program that would fit within his sport coaching role that is quite different than the norm in college sports. We'll also chat on maximizing the transfer in speed work for sport, and the chaotic nature of adaptation and performance in sport, versus a more linear sequencing in traditional S&C settings. This show is one that will stretch our thinking regarding a lot of current beliefs and practices, and makes for a great conversation in the high-performance dynamic of sport.

Timestamps and Main Points: 4:13 – How and why Michael moved from being a strength and physical preparation coach, to being a sport coach, coaching NCAA D3 football 7:51 – Michael's counter-industry theory on use of the weight room for his football population 21:06 – How Michael's motor learning background while he was working in the physical preparation field prepared him to coach football in the NCAA 24:08 – What a typical practice looks like for Michael's training group 26:57 – Michael's thoughts on general versus specific agility drills for athletes 35:46 – Thoughts on linear vs. variable patterns of adaptation in athletics and sport, versus a strength and conditioning setting 46:37 – Michael's take on speed work that moves the needle the most, for team sport athletes, specifically football in this case “My issue with strength and conditioning is that we are all doing the same thing, so how can you separate yourself? To have a competitive advantage you can't do what everyone else is doing” “You can accomplish those adaptations/results (tissue resiliency) without ever setting foot in a weight room” “The only tools (for my d-backs) I guess I would use would be a sled, a med ball, and a band, or a weighted vest” “I think coaches would be a lot better if they had to require 6 months of getting out of the weight room, and finding ways to get those similar adaptations without relying on a barbell that we are normally comfortable with” “In order to improve an athlete's movement, they have to be put and placed in context, or an environment that retains a lot of variables they see in sport, which is live human bodies”

In Episode 75 ist eine ganz besondere Frau zu Gast: Ilka Groenewold. Sie ist Moderatorin, Sportlerin. Autorin und Coach. Total cool: Sie ist auch Sport- Coach auf Kreuzfahrtschiffen ;) Mit ihr reden wir darüber, wie sie nach aufregenden Auftritten und tollen Begegnungen gut in den Schlaf findet. Es geht auch um ihre Zeit im Schweigekloster und was Zufriedenheit und Erfüllung im Beruf mit Schlaf zu tun hat- mit ihrem im Speziellen. Eva erzählt von ihrem Urlaub, in dem sie mit niemandem gesprochen hat und Thalea berichtet davon, wie es ist, auf einer einsamen Insel Urlaub zu machen. Macht es Sinn, sich bewusst „Auszeiten“ zu gönnen, um danach wieder mit mehr Energie durchstarten zu können? Warum schläft Ilka immer und überall eigentlich gut ein? Und wann ist sie eigentlich überhaupt so richtig aufgeregt? Wo genau „findet“ man eigentlich diese OMINÖSE Zufriedenheit und was passiert, wenn Feedback von außen weg fällt? Antworten auf diese Fragen und Fragen des Lebens gibt‘s jetzt hier sofort. Einfach auf „Play“ drücken und Ohren weit auf. Ganz viel Spass dabei!

Want to have a start in sport? As always, you'll need to work towards understanding its CONTEXT. But additionally, the context and PERFECTIVE of its leader — THE COACH!Steve Manuel wants you to understand that coaching and leading are not the same thing as BEING at the CENTER of everything in sports ⚪. In our 29th episode of the Training Science Podcast, Paul and Steve highlight how getting into Volleyball (or any sport!) requires an open minded attitude around who you work with, that you have to trust your people to do their job, and that not knowing exactly how things work is not a problem, and can possibly be an asset. Of course we also learn that volleyball players - well, they need to jump high haha
In this solo episode I share some ideas for sport coaches so that they help develop mental strength in their athletes and teams. The methods I discuss are in contrast to what some people often consider as the way to develop Mental Strength or Mental Toughness by creating fear cultures, pushing athletes to their limits and dishing out punishments. I'm hopeful this episode will destroy that particular myth where I dig into the importance of social support and the different types of social support you can offer your athletes. Teachers and parents will likely find the insights and case studies helpful too. Key Learning Points As a Sports Psychologist we are often tasked with “fixing” problems that athletes may be experiencing. These problems can be influenced by genetics, the athletes home environment, personality traits, value clashes, parenting, off pitch or course issues, the club or organisations culture. The problems can also be influenced hugely by coaches. A coach's role is multifaceted and complex as are the individuals they work with. The benefits of good communication and excellent social support for athletes include fewer burnout symptoms, improved sporting performance, better transitions from junior to adult sport and reduced anxiety. Different types of social support include: listening support, emotional support. emotional challenge, reality confirmation support, task appreciation support and task challenge support. Consider the age and the experience of the athlete when deciding how much social support you will provide as a coach. Research tells us that younger and less experienced athletes may require more social support from their coach than the older and more experienced athletes. As a coach you may also want to consider the skill level of the athlete. Elite athletes are likely to need different social support strategies than recreational athletes.

Ein Interview mit Christian Göhring über seinen Werdegang und seine Definition von Karriere
Schon im Elternhaus von Beat Feurer war Politik ein Thema. Die Eltern waren eingeschriebene SP-Mitglieder. Für Beat kam mit seiner Hinwendung zu Gott der freiheitliche Gedanke hinzu. Bereits als Jugendlicher fand Beat Feurer seinen Weg zum Glauben, welcher ihn nie mehr los liess. Sein frühes Engagement für Asylbewerbende aus Sri Lanka entstand daraus und führte dazu, dass «seine Familie» ebenfalls aus Sri Lanka stammt. Später baute er ein eigenes Treuhandbüro auf und war als Dozent für Steuerrecht tätig. Weil er überzeugt ist, dass der Menschen radikal zur Freiheit bestimmt ist, politisiert er in der SVP. Seit 2013 ist er als erster Vertreter der SVP in der Regierung der Stadt Biel. Auf nationaler Ebene hat sein Engagement als homosexueller Christ und Gründer der GaySVP für Schlagzeilen gesorgt. Er sagt: «Man empfindet mein Leben oft als gefüllt mit Widersprüchen. Für mich ist es ein Leben erfüllt mit Zusprüchen Gottes». Das Leben ist eine spannende Reise. In gemütlicher Atmosphäre erhalten wir Weintipps von Reto Luginbühl, geniessen zu Live-Musik ein „Chäs, Brot, Wy“-Buffet und im Talk mit Stef Gerber erhalten wir Einblick in die Lebensgeschichte von Beat Feurer.

In this episode Gerry discusses a hot topic in strength and conditioning, individualized programming.The idea of changing or altering aspects of a program for the needs of an individual athlete has slowly turned into a token/novel idea, sometimes geared at boosting the perceived value of training.The conversation starts with the inspiration for the discussion and the idea of token individualization and how many have the misconception that every exercise of aspect of a program needs to be changed for each individual. Gerry explains how to look at the general aspects of athletes (age and training age) and how experience can show what things are steadfast for athletes and need not be changed. It is not variations that make a program individualized, but rather load and how we determine what loading they need.From there, the discussion turns to assessments (actually using them) and how you should combine assessments and general knowledge about athletes and their age range to make decisions on what specific needs they have. Then, to finish up, Gerry discusses tracking loads for individual athletes and assessing progress as programming continues.All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!Support the show (http://www.challengerstrength.com)

In this episode Gerry brings an important topic to Meathead Monday: the pitfalls of trying to chase specific sport metrics with young athletes with minimal training age.To start, Gerry discusses the improvements a young athlete can make in areas specific to their sport JUST from general speed and strength improvements made with basic modalities early on in a strength and conditioning program.From there, the conversation looks towards specific examples of sport metrics that will improve just from improvements in general areas of speed and strength and how coaches and athletes can determine when things may need to be ramped up a bit more as an athlete advances and the general adaptations of strength and speed may have diminishing returns.Once that is determined, Gerry details how to go about increasing specificity with certain metrics and the categories we should look towards when it comes to changing programming to gradually be more tailored to sports or metrics specific to sport.All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!Support the show (http://www.challengerstrength.com)
*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*In this episode Gerry welcomes Carlton Salters back on for his second appearance on the podcast. Carlton is the hitting coach for University of Texas at San Antonio Softball and does tremendous work transforming both the mechanics, timing and approach of his hitters.What separates Carlton from most hitting coaches is his deep understanding of movement through strength and conditioning and how quality movements learned in a strength and conditioning program (a hip hinge for for example) can be HUGE in helping hitters move better and become more efficient and effective in the box.To start, Carlton talks about what to look for early on in your first look or assessment of a hitter's mechanics.

*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*In this episode Gerry welcomes on Erik Ostberg, catcher in the Tampa Bay Rays organization.To start, Erik and Gerry discuss baseball in the North-East and how Erik feels the cold weather in the Fall and Winter can impact training, development and progress. Erik discusses some of his early training experiences in high school and how they shaped his philosophies regarding strength training.From there, the two discuss the importance of sprinting (short sprints specifically), plyometric/jump training and the immense importance of getting stronger (especially for youth athletes or new trainees in general). Additionally, the conversation turns to the benefits strength and speed training can provide for athletes in terms of gaining an edge in their sport and on the field of play.To finish, Erik talks about his college training and playing experience at the University of Hartford and what his training currently involves while with a professional organization. He gives full insight on what is involved both in the in-season AND off-season as a big leaguer and sheds some light on how he uses what he has learned in strength training to help/trains athletes while at home during the off-season.All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!Timestamps:12:00- Growing up In The Northeast and Northeast Baseball15:45- The Culture and Evolution of Training19:20- Success of Players from Your Area Can Increase Overall Exposure21:00- Is the Northeast Have a Disadvantage?25:50- Having an Offseason is a Good Thing29:30- Erik’s Training Experiences Growing Up32:50- Over Complicating Strength Programs 39:30- Is the 60-Yard Dash Effective for Baseball?42:30- Erik’s College Training Experiences45:15- Is Static Stretching Useful?49:25- College Recruiting54:15- Erik’s Playing Career at the University of Hartford1:02:48- Erik’s Training Influences1:07:00- Erik’s Current Core Training Philosophy1:20:30- Closing ThoughtsSupport the show (http://www.challengerstrength.com)
*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*Season 2 and 2020 of Muscles and Management starts with a bang as Louisiana Tech Football Strength Coach Kurt Hester stops by fresh off an Independence Bowl win over University of Miami AND a mini rant by Gerry on the combination of technology and the basics of strength and conditioning.To start, Gerry reads off a tweet of Kurt's regarding professionalism, and how the lack thereof can be problematic for the field as a whole. Kurt discusses the importance of bringing energy and enthusiasm to the field, but also maintains the position that there is a fine line between energy and maintaining professionalism, or losing it. The two discuss how theatrical coaches can negatively impact the perception of strength coaches, and how the ultimate goal of a coach should be developing athletes, not seeking attention.From there, the conversation shifts to a full discussion of the "high performance model," an organizational structure that is starting to make its way to college and professional sports. Kurt gives a breakdown of what it is, and how having a position that directly oversees hiring and firing performance staff can make for an environment of continuity, collaboration and ultimate performance.To finish, Gerry does a brief Q&A on volume guidelines for sprinting and gives a breakdown on the differences between his assessments of individual athletes vs. large teams (and what goes into both).All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!Timestamps:00:43 - Please Keep Jeff Leach (@CoachJeffLeach) in Your Thoughts and Prayers04:48 - Year in Review11:30 - Tweet Rant of The Week (Mastering The Basics AND Utilizing Technology)19:14 - Episode 53 Outline22:40 - Chris Doyle27:20 - The Landscape of Strength Coaches & Motivations30:35 - Balancing High Energy and Professionalism34:35 - High-Performance Model39:40 - Old Dog, New Tricks47:16 - The Problem with Being Stuck in Your Ways48:56 - Kurt Hester’s Influences in His Career52:52 - How Many Sprints is too Many?58:38 - How to Assess Different ClientsSupport the show (http://www.challengerstrength.com)

*SHOW TIMESTAMPS FEATURED AT THE END*In this episode Gerry welcomes on New York Yankee’s Base-running Coordinator Matt Talarico!To start, Matt and Gerry talk about Matt’s playing career and background and how that sparked his interest in speed, base running and more. A lot has changed in the course of 10-15 years regarding speed and strength training, and Matt takes us through what he did personally to get faster and how his wheels began to turn in terms of moving away from the older school (conditioning, longer sprints etc.) and into the newer school of thought (strength, power, shorter sprints etc.).From there the two discuss the prominence of acceleration in baseball and how your first ten to fifteen yards in your sprint can make or break you. From stride length, stride angle, body positioning and all things mechanical, Matt and Gerry break down what goes in to true “baseball speed.”To finish, the discussion turns to the drop step and WHY it is the most effective way to sprint in baseball and how it’s ok to know what the great athletes felt, but also important to know what they actually did. Matt then takes time to explain the premise behind his coaching business “steal bases,” the philosophies and what goes in to making yourself a good base runner regardless of your level of speed.All that and more on this episode of Muscles and Management!Timestamps:6:13- Matt’s Playing Background9:18- Training Athletes Who Don’t Have Exceptional “Natural Talent”13:55- Matt’s Lifting Program/Experience as a Player16:45- Correlation of Leg Strength and Speed20:30- Mindset During Sprints (Getting 100% From Sprints)27:40- Acceleration in Baseball and Styles of Sprints During Programing33:30- Importance of Differentiating Between Acceleration vs. Top End Speed39:36- Is The 60 Outdated?51:20- Stride Length is Key57:45- Using Sleds For Sprints1:02:30- Drop Step1:14:35- StealBases.com1:22:25- Benefits of Having Base Stealers on Your Team1:25:20- Do You Steal on a Pitcher, or a Catcher?1:29:30- Matt’s Ending ThoughtsSupport the show (http://www.challengerstrength.com)
In this episode Gerry welcomes on Arkansas Baseball Strength and Conditioning Coach Blaine Kinsley. Gerry looks through Blaine's Twitter to find some his most impactful tweets on various key topics in the realm of strength and speed training. To start, the conversation heads towards a very argued point in strength and conditioning... power cleans. Blaine explains why he likes cleans, but why he may not use the for every player he trains and how he makes that decision. The two then discuss the importance of not getting too caught up in variations (exercises) and more on what works to achieve the adaptation (effect) that you are looking for.From there, Gerry opens the discussion on some of Blaine's tweets related to motor recruitment for athletes, the importance of it and what exercises push an athlete to recruit more motor units. Additionally, they go over how this can help determine how transferable training is to sport (Verkhoshansky's Principle of Dynamic Correspondence) and how it should guide your programming.To finish up, the discussion explores areas such as the joint-by-joint model and stable vs. mobile joints, how you can assess or help athletes in these areas and keeping it simple when it comes to building strength, speed, power and endurance.All that and more on this episode!Support the show (http://www.challengerstrength.com)

I ett vinterregnigt Göteborg träffade Radio O-Ringen podcast en nytänd och motiverad Johan Runesson från Göteborg-Majorna OK. För ett drygt år sedan var läget ett helt annat. - Jag tappade glädjen och glöden, motivationen var nere på noll, berättar Johan Runesson i pod #57. Per Forsberg åkte till Västkusten för att kolla läget med den tidigare juniorstjärnan som nu tar sats mot VM i Sverige i augusti. Vägen dit har dock varit guppig. Upp och ner. - Ja, i höstas var det sannerligen en berg- och dalbana men ett samtal med min mentala coach förändrade mycket, säger Johan Runesson i podden. Johan Runesson som studerar till Sport Coach och som ska ha sin praktik i Århus på Jylland där han ska vara i tio veckor tillsammans med det framgångsrika danska landslaget under ledning av Lars Lindström. -Det ska bli spännande att se hur de jobbar och för mig blir det också en chans att spetsa min teknik i den mer kontinentala terrängen, konstaterar Johan Runesson. Lyssna till en Runesson som hävdar att allt handlar om glädje. Att innebandyn var sysselsättningen förra vintern och att han är en riktig sportnörd med Liverpool som favoritlaget bland alla andra. Det är en spännande historia han berättar. Lyssna till Radio O-Ringen podcast #57 med Johan Runesson. Hör gärna av er med synpunkter eller idéer till radio@oringen.se.

Serena Marie, RD: Carbs Serena Marie, RD answers a Periscope viewer question, “When is the ideal time to eat carbs?” Keep in mind that every body is different. Carbs get a bad rap at times, so remember that Serena defers that we get carbs from non-starchy foods. Carbs create a spike in insulin that acts as the “annoying neighbor” to get your cells to open up and let sugar in. Carbs are best utilized before your workout. Post-workout (40+ minutes of cardio), you can eat carbs to replenish sugar for your muscles. For people who have trouble sleeping, having a serving of carbs an hour before bed might be helpful (like milk or fruit). Sometimes diabetics find that their blood sugar is elevated in the morning, so they might benefit from a lower-carb breakfast.
