Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman answer the following listener questions (): 1. Daniel Mann- As successful athletes (and now as parents), how do you (or will you) handle athletics with your kids? How do/will you approach it if your kids want to play football? How do you help them not to live under the pressure of your shadows? 2. @SoonerJG- Teddy…who is your second favorite band after Tool? 3. @Asbell_tony- When you're traveling not work related, what are top criteria for hotel choice? Some are loyal to a brand and frequent stay points. Some value, some breakfast or happy hour. Some people the gym. Exclude the obvious of location. 4. Jaxson Moore- did you guys have to learn to watch film differently when job roles switched from on field to off field? 5. Nick Gelona- if the fingers on one of your hands could each magically produce an unlimited supply of any liquid, which 5 liquids would you choose? 6. Brad Green- For Teddy- did you have a teammate that you absolutely hated to tackle or go up against? 7. John Shupe- if you guys were given a time machine to go back and play 1 season on any Super Bowl winning team, which team would you choose and why? Like Teddy going back to the b on the '85 Bears so he can sing the hit song Super Bowl Shuffle of Gabe going back to be on the ‘89 49ers so he could hike the ball to Joe Montana and his soft, gentle hands for a full season. ·Use promo code ‘ted' for 10% off at https://opolisclothing.com/ ·Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/OK_Breakdown?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ·Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ok_breakdown/?hl=en Learn more about your ad choices.

Merril Hoge is a former professional American football player. He played eight seasons at running back for the National Football League (NFL's) Pittsburgh Steelers and Chicago Bears, retiring after the 1994 season. In 1996 he became a football analyst for ESPN television until 2017. During a road game in 1994 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Hoge suffered a concussion and, five days later, the team doctor approved him to resume playing during a telephone call without examining him to determine if he had recovered; he was still suffering post-concussion symptoms. Hoge sustained another concussion several weeks later, and had to be resuscitated after he stopped breathing. He spent 48 hours in the intensive-care unit and was forced to retire due to brain injury. Hoge had to learn to read again and experienced memory loss, confusion and headaches. In 2003, Hoge was diagnosed with stage II Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Hoge commented on this: It is destroyable, it is beatable. You have everything in you to do it. The mind is a powerful thing. There is no doubt, come May, I'll be cancer free; five years after that, I'll be cured. Fifty years or whatever time I have left after that, it will be the platform I stand for. I'll be a better man. This has been a blessing. Sara and Merril talk about sports, parenting sports kids, leadership and his slogan by which to live your life: “Find a Way”. Merril talks about his life journey and how as a father, player and leader, he learned the power of self-reflection as a way of looking at situations differently and learning different ways than his father may have showed him. Self-reflection helps in building resiliency and to live a life that you don't live to regret. He also shares tools for parenting that made a difference in his parenting: He judges kids in yardsticks of how many years they have lived.. do not assume they think like an adult. He is a believer of patience and keeping perspective at all times. Hoge reminds us that what are children see us do, they do- so we are responsible for modelling the right behavior.

Curious about how to establish effective communication and strengthen the bond with your teenage athlete?Welcome to "The Freshman Foundation", a podcast that helps young athletes and their families BE READY for every next step in their athletic journey.In this episode, we're honored to host Jeanine Mouchawar, a respected life coach dedicated to assisting parents of teenagers. From the significance of emotional regulation to mastering effective communication, Jeanine guides us through the intricate dynamics of parent-teen interactions. So, what's your biggest takeaway from my conversation with Jeanine Mouchawar?My biggest takeaway is that parents need to shift their approach from a controlling style to one that empowers their teenagers. Just as I do, Jeanine encourages parents to foster autonomy and problem-solving skills in their teens, which will equip them for life's challenges. Furthermore, she emphasizes open communication lines, where teenagers feel understood and can express their concerns freely.We're grateful to Jeanine for sharing her wisdom with The Freshman Foundation Community.

All this week we've been looking at how to push back on a youth sports culture that tends to value the wrong things, by living out our faith as sports parents. Jesus said that it's out of the overflow of our hearts that our mouths speak. Parents, what do your sideline words and behavior say about your heart? Sports psychologist Vincent Fortanasce says, “Frustrated parents can attack the umpires, berate the managers and coaches, and demean the players on the field with impunity. Some go the full hundred yards in criticizing their children's teammates, and even their own children.” I think you would agree that his observations are tragic. I've watched young kids cower and teenagers become bitter in response. And even if they do respond with improved performance, are those critical attitudes the kind of qualities we want to nurture in our kids? Children learn from our example. If we're going to scream anything, it should be words of praise, encouragement, and acceptance.
All this week we're looking at how to push back on a youth sports culture that tends to value the wrong things, by living out our faith as sports parents. There's much that we can learn from hockey hall of famer Mark Howe. Mark understood when his talented 17-year-old son Travis asked to quit playing ice hockey. The win-at-all costs mind set of his coaches and teammates' parents had finally gotten to be too much for Travis. Mark says that in youth sports today “the child's welfare is becoming less and less important. The focus should be on instruction and developing character. But you wonder about some of the coaches and parents today . . . the bottom-line is that I never saw Travis smile when he played. . . I supported his decision 100 percent.” As a result of their decision, Travis Howe won't be the third generation of the Gordie Howe family to play in the uniform of the National Hockey League's Detroit Red Wings. For the Howe's, character won out over winning.
All this week we're looking at how to push back on a youth sports culture that tends to value the wrong things, by living out our faith as sports parents. Have you ever taken the time to stand back and observe the behavior of the parents who stand on the sidelines screaming and yelling at refs, coaches, and even their own kids? As we parent our kids through organized sports, it's important that we continually ask ourselves this question: “Who's out on the field?” Unfortunately, some parents see their kids as a second chance to fulfill the sports dreams they themselves never realized during their own childhood. Alanis Morrisette's gripping old song Perfect echoes the experience of too many kids: “I'll live through you, I'll make you what I never was/If you're the best, then maybe so am I. . . you'll make up for what I blew/what's the problem. . . why are you crying?” Parents, let your kids play to have fun. Don't require them to validate your own inadequacies.
Vincent Fortanasce is a psychiatrist, coach and member of the Little League Hall of Fame. In his book, Life Lessons from Little League , he relates how he asked parents at the initial team meeting about what they first ask their children after a game, if they had not been able to attend. The most common question was “Did you win today?” The second most frequent question was “How did you do?” Fortanasce writes, “What was my point? Simply that I wanted my team parents to re-focus away from ‘I want my child to learn to win,' or the pursuit of perfection, to the pursuit of contentment and confidence; from ‘I want my child to be the best player on the best team' and the pursuit of talent, to ‘I want my child to be a good sportsman', or the pursuit of character.” He suggests that the more appropriate questions are “Did you have fun?” or “What did you learn today?” Join us tomorrow, as all this week we'll be looking at how to be sports parents to the glory of God, rather than to the glory of our selves.

How is Anna Hennings impacting athletes in her second act as a mental performance coach?During a bit of midlife crisis, I decided that I wanted to impact the lives of young athletes. Pursuing a career change in my early 40s created a lot of uncertainty about where my choice to become a sport psychology professional would lead. However, placing my faith in the process for pursuing a life of purpose paid off.My guest in this episode, Anna Hennings, has a very similar story. Anna is a Certified Mental Performance Consultant® and private practitioner who focuses on working with volleyball players. She pursued a second career in sport psychology to also live a life of purpose.In Episode 54, Anna shares about her path to mental performance coaching and her experiences working with young athletes.So, what's your biggest takeaway from my conversation with Anna Hennings?My biggest takeaway is that the mental skills that we teach to athletes are skills that they can use in all facets of life. We, as mental performance coaches, have the privilege to positively impact the lives of young people through our work. My conversation with Anna reinforced that fact.My suggestion to young athletes is to find joy in the process of growth and improvement. We often must find faith in the process when the outcomes are not exactly what we would like them to be.I want to thank Anna for her kind generosity and the wisdom she shared with The Freshman Foundation Community.You can learn more about Anna by visiting her website, https: annahennings.com.To learn how mental performance coaching can help your mind work FOR you rather than against you, visit https://michaelvhuber.com.Thank you for listening. We'll see you back soon for Episode 55!
How is Skye Eddy making the youth sports sideline a better place?Anyone who has ever attended a youth sports game knows that the sideline can be a pretty intense place. Emotions often run high as parents, coaches, and young athletes strive for results and recognition. However, player development and a healthy motivational climate are often sacrificed as a result.My guest in this episode, Skye Eddy, is the founder of the Soccer Parenting Association. Skye is a former professional soccer player, collegiate All-American goalkeeper, licensed coach, and most importantly, a soccer parent. Over the past eight years, her mission has been inspiring young athletes by empowering parents.In Episode 52, Skye shares her aim of making youth sports sidelines healthier by arming parents with information that allows them to be their best.So, what's your biggest takeaway from my conversation with Skye Eddy?My biggest takeaway is that establishing clear boundaries is critical in order for healthy youth sport relationships to exist. Youth sport athletes are most likely to reach their potential if adults clearly understand their proper role in the athlete's development process.My suggestion to parents is seek out education in order to perform at your best as a sports parent. It may be cliche, but knowledge is indeed power.I want to thank Skye for her kind generosity and the wisdom she shared with The Freshman Foundation Community.You can learn more about Skye and the Soccer Parenting Association by visiting their website at https://soccerparenting.com and on social media @SoccerParenting.

Parenting is hard. I speak from firsthand experience as I have two kids of my own. When you add sports into the equation, parenting can get even more stressful. As elite performers, parents must have their own strategies for maintaining calm, focused confidence to best serve their young athletes. My guest, Rachel Duffy, is a Certified Conscious Parenting Coach. With over two decades of combined experience as a family lawyer and parenting coach, Rachel has spent her entire adult life in the trenches with families. Rachel helps families create lasting change by helping them to identify and address the root causes of family relationship issues.In Episode 51, Rachel shares her thoughts on how to build stronger connections with our children to withstand the emotional roller coaster that is youth sports. So, what's your biggest takeaway from my conversation with Rachel Duffy?My biggest takeaway is that connecting with our children unconditionally can be really difficult. Kids can perceive parents' sports participation as a form of conditional love and it's our job as parents to alleviate that as much as possible.My suggestion to parents is to explore why we feel the way we do about our kids' sports experiences. Often, our discomfort is not about them, it's about us.I want to thank Rachel for her kind generosity and the wisdom she shared with The Freshman Foundation Community.You can check out Rachel's Unscrew You Podcast at https://unscrewyoupodcast.com and on Instagram @rachelduffyhere.

How is Dominic Shannon building a development-first youth basketball program? AAU basketball isn't always viewed in the most favorable light. Detractors argue that there is an overemphasis on winning, physical overuse for the athlete, and no real team cohesion. However, not all AAU programs are created equally. My guest, Dominic Shannon, is Program Director for All-In Sports based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He is a former basketball player that has coached in both high school and college. Dominic left a job in corporate America to pursue his vision for All-In Sports, a basketball program that would emphasize the development of young athletes. In seven years since it was founded, All-In Sports has attracted over 100 players by developing a community-oriented, highly collaborative team culture.In Episode 49, Dominic shares his passion for preparing young athletes for success on and off the court.So, what's your biggest takeaway from my conversation with Dominic Shannon?My biggest takeaway is that families should look for an AAU or club program that fits their family's values. My suggestion to families is to do your homework when selecting a sports program. Development-oriented sports programs exist. Investing time to research and ask the right questions will make all the difference.I want to thank Dominic for his kind generosity and the wisdom he shared with The Freshman Foundation Community.You can learn more about All-In Sports at https://allinsportsclub.com and on Instagram @allinsportsclub.To learn HOW mental performance coaching can help your mind work FOR you rather than AGAINST you, visit https://michaelvhuber.com.Thank you for listening.

Wouldn't it be nice to raise a child that goes on to be the next LeBron James, Serena Williams, or Peyton Manning? Of course! But isn't that setting the bar too high? There's so much more that our kids can learn from playing sports. If we teach them to focus on improving their skills, learn from their mistakes, and be good teammates, they'll be successful no matter what they do. For this conversation, I'm thrilled to welcome back none other than Alan Stein, Jr. Alan is an author, keynote speaker, and a performance coach with a passion for helping others change their behaviors and maximize performance. His proven principles teach others how to utilize the same approaches in business that elite athletes use to perform at a world-class level. For over 15 years, he's worked with legends and superstars in the NBA, such as Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Kobe Bryant. Alan talks about empowering our kids to give it their best, develop a positive attitude, and be good teammates. We also talk about winning graciously and losing gracefully because there are lessons to be learned, no matter the outcome. And if things aren't going well, or if they miss a shot, teaching our kids to move on to the “Next Play” is such a great lesson in sports and in life. It's okay if they fall or come up short. But if they learn to get up, shake it off, and move forward, they'll have way more wins than losses in their life. If your kids are playing sports, there's a good chance that you've seen a parent yelling and screaming from the sidelines and thinking they're helping the situation when it's actually having the opposite impact. Alan reminds us that if we stay in our lanes, let the players play, and the coaches coach, we can focus on being the parent and empowering our kids to be the best at whatever they want to do. One last thing, if you enjoyed this conversation, please leave an honest review of the FRD podcast and mention this episode. Send a screenshot to our team at FrontRowDads.com, tell us which one of Alan's books you want and we'll mail you a copy for free. (USA/Canadian residents only) Alan Stein, Jr. Podcast Highlights Sports should be fun, and an avenue for development and teaching life lessons. Why coaches and parents should put a greater focus on kids being a greater teammate versus winning and losing. Why the “Next Play” mentality works not only in sports, but in all aspects of life. The negative impact that parents can have when attempting to “coach” from the sidelines. The best thing that parents can do at their kids' games is cheer them on and provide encouragement. The importance of focusing on the process of having a good attitude and giving your best effort. Show our kids how to win graciously and lose gracefully. Why youth sports should not be about parents living vicariously through their kids' experiences. How to help our kids make the connection of how preparation factors into both winning and losing. The trilogy of behaviors that parents and coaches need to eradicate from youth sports. The positive impact that comes from telling our kids “I love to watch you play”. One simple rule: Let the players play and let the coaches coach. Everybody makes mistakes. Teach our kids not to talk to referees when something goes wrong, since the referees don't say anything to them when they make mistakes or miss a shot during the game. Let's also make sure that we check in on each other, especially if you know someone that could use a friendly voice or text right now.

A year and a half later, her high school daughter also found herself competing against a biological male in high school track.
