In this Contacts Coaching Podcast episode, host interviews Nate “Blackjack” Pototschnik, associate director of strength and conditioning for BYU football, about his path from the U.S. Military Academy to flying helicopters for 10 years, deploying twice to Afghanistan, and using GI Bill benefits to earn a master's in exercise physiology at the University of Virginia. Nathan shares why he left the cockpit for coaching, how success habits built his confidence, and how trusting his gut and prioritizing family guided career decisions when coaching opportunities shifted. He explains what transferred from aviation to coaching (explicit vs tacit learning, staying calm under pressure), discusses not tying self-worth to wins and losses, and outlines strength-and-conditioning priorities: movement quality screening, full-range training preferences, power clean vs full clean, building culture through standards, objective feedback and competition, staff alignment, and maintaining daily relationship touchpoints with athletes.00:00 Meet Coach Blackjack00:40 From 9/11 to Coaching03:27 Betting on Yourself05:22 Confidence and Gut Calls10:04 GI Bill Explained11:59 Combat Pilot Lessons16:51 Staying Detached from Outcomes18:50 Weight Room Priorities24:08 Movement Screening Basics26:52 Full Depth vs Quarter Squats29:33 Power Clean vs Full Clean31:03 Be Ready Before Promotion33:20 Head Coach Time Demands35:48 Hiring and Coaching Trees38:58 Healthy Dissent Culture43:07 BYU Grouping and Mods44:25 Testing Buckets and Profiles47:08 Freak Athletes and Standards49:10 Environment and Competition52:33 Leadership Lessons and Alignment55:10 Building Relationships at Scale56:40 Strength Coaches as Conduit57:58 Wrap Up and Next Round

In this episode I sit down with Strength Coach (and beyond) Jeff Moyer of DC Sports Training in Pittsburgh, PA. A shared client described Jeff's practice best: "Other strength coaches can get you better by aligning the tires and adding horsepower to the engine.

His approach to improving performance and reconditioning athletes is a rare find. He's great at what he does and explaining why it's important. This is a great one!

STRONG Life Podcast ep 559

Harlee Heath found strength and conditioning the way a lot of great coaches do. Not from a plan, but from a moment. A female strength coach walked into her exercise science class at the University of Central Arkansas, described the job, and that was it. Harlee walked up after class and said she wanted to intern. Two years later she was leading women's tennis on her own and traveling with the football team.Now finishing her second year as a Graduate Assistant at Western Kentucky University, Harlee has coached cheer, dance, men's basketball, and baseball. She went from eight tennis athletes to over 120 cheer and dance athletes in her first week as a GA, coaching on the floor by herself from day one because her mentor D-Hall believed the only way to grow is to do the work. That philosophy runs through every part of this conversation.This episode covers what the GA grind really looks like, how to earn trust before you have a title, what it means to be a female in a field that is still overwhelmingly male, and why networking is the most underutilized skill in early-career strength coaching.Key Takeaways• Passion and work ethic separate good interns from great ones. Being first in, last out, and doing things without being asked is what gets coaches noticed.• Dedicated attention to one team builds deeper buy-in. Athletes notice when someone shows up just for them rather than splitting time across multiple sports.• Coaching diverse populations forces you to expand your coaching vocabulary. When verbal cues alone do not work, you become a sharper communicator.• Networking is active work. Following up, visiting other programs, and staying in touch matters more than any resume or application.• Great mentors let you fail. The mistakes you make yourself are the ones you never forget. Being corrected before the mistake happens does not stick the same way.• Female strength coaches bring a unique connection to female athletes. Trust and buy-in can come faster when the relationship is peer to peer.Featured Quote"I told them I am going to train you like real athletes. If that means we are going to Olympic lift, squat heavy, deadlift heavy, bench heavy, that is what we are going to do. As soon as I said that, the buy-in was nearly immediate."— Harlee Heath, Graduate Assistant Strength Coach, Western Kentucky University

Trevor Sackmann, Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach at the University of Hawaii, joins the Samson Strength Coach Collective to discuss how the role of the strength coach continues to evolve. Drawing from a unique career path that included coaching internationally in China and developing athletes in college settings, Trevor explains why today's strength coach must be more than a weight room specialist.Throughout the conversation, Trevor highlights the importance of communication, collaboration, athlete monitoring, and developing trust with sport coaches. He shares practical lessons on using technology to support conversations, understanding the bigger picture of athlete development, and learning how to create buy-in from both athletes and staff. This episode is a strong reminder that the best strength coaches are not just writing programs. They are helping lead the entire performance process.Key TakeawaysThe modern strength coach must add value outside the weight roomCommunication and collaboration often have more impact than the perfect programTechnology can help open doors to better conversations with sport coachesAthlete monitoring becomes more useful when paired with trust and contextBuy-in from athletes and coaches can drive better outcomes than rigid programmingLong-term development requires flexibility, patience, and perspectiveGrowth as a coach often comes through criticism, discomfort, and adapting your approachQuote“The strength and conditioning coach more often than not is bound to the weight room, but the best coaches find ways to expand their value beyond it.”— Trevor Sackmann

STRONG Life Podcast 557 QnA

Expectations for strength and conditioning coaches now extend far beyond the weight room. Athletes and sport coaches demand better data, deeper insight, and stronger performance. Faith Brown, Associate Director of Strength and Conditioning at George Mason University, supports women’s basketball and volleyball while collaborating with the Patriot Performance Lab. Brown describes balancing teams, testing, and athlete monitoring as a “circus act.” At the heart of her coaching is one goal: be the coach she wishes she had as a college track athlete. She demonstrates ways strength and conditioning coaches can contribute as scientists, creating impact and value outside the weight room walls. Brown shares how GPS, heart rate monitoring, and force plates support workload monitoring. However, she believes that technology should only be used when it answers a real question. Learn how to turn data into better training decisions, translate sport science so sport coaches buy in, and reach out to other coaches to refine your program.

It also supports preparation for the Certified Performance and Sport Scientist® (CPSS®) certification exam.Show Notes“We have a lot of interns that come through the weight room. And 85% of them aren't going to continue in strength conditioning especially, or maybe collegiate strength and conditioning, but a part of them doing that internship is figuring out this is not what I want to do. So what else is left out there that maybe I want to explore?” 7:50 “I think it's just being a two-way street with talking to coaches and learning from them about the sport and what they want to see.” 14:32 “The biggest thing when you're working with the new sport is just get out there, watch a sport, talk to the coaches, talk to the athletes, learn as much as you can about it.” 15:30 “For me, I went into student conditioning, obviously, because I loved it. I had a passion for it. But I think also being able to be what I didn't have when I was in college, I didn't have a conditioning coach and me and my friends, still, best friends with two of the girls I ran track with. And they always they're like, face, like all this stuff you all do is like, so cool.” 36:00

In this episode of the Samson Strength Coach Collective, we sit down with Nico Scharinger, Coaching Assistant at Florida State University. Nico shares his unique journey from playing soccer in Europe to pursuing a career in strength and conditioning in the United States.Throughout the conversation, Nico discusses the major cultural differences between European and American strength and conditioning systems, and why the collegiate sports model in the U.S. offers opportunities that don't always exist overseas. He explains how discovering the American college sports environment sparked his interest in pursuing strength coaching abroad.Nico also breaks down the realities of the visa and immigration process for international coaches and students, offering insights into how preparation and persistence are key for navigating those challenges. The conversation highlights how embracing change, moving between environments, and continuously learning can shape a successful career in strength and conditioning.Key Takeaways:Nico transitioned from playing soccer in Europe to pursuing strength coaching in the United States.The U.S. collegiate athletics model provides unique opportunities for strength coaches.International coaches must be proactive when navigating visa and immigration processes.Cultural differences between Europe and the U.S. influence training philosophies and opportunities.Adaptability and openness to change are essential traits for long-term coaching success.Quote:“First of all, other sports are growing now. But it wasn't like in the US. I was like, that's just a college—how are there 10,000 people watching this game? A strength coach posted a video about the college experience and I thought, that's really cool. So I searched a little more about it and just got interested in it.” — Nico Scharinger

In this week's basketball coaching conversation, Coordinator of Integrated Performance for the Los Angeles Dodgers Clayton Thompson joins the Basketball Podcast to share insights on integrating science, skill, and human connectionClayton Thompson serves as the Coordinator of Integrated Performance for the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he sits at the cutting edge of professional sports science and player development. With a background as an R&D Engineer and a Master's in Business Administration, Thompson is a vocal advocate for dismantling the traditional silos between "strength and conditioning" and "on-field skill." His philosophy is built on the belief that human movement should be treated as a unified system, rejecting the narrow label of "Strength Coach" in favor of a model that integrates biomechanical data, force-plate analytics, and technical skill acquisition.Before joining the Dodgers, Thompson refined his data-driven approach at Driveline Baseball, the industry leader in data-informed performance training. His career also includes pivotal roles at TCU (Texas Christian University) and Sanford Health, where he bridged the gap between collegiate athletics and clinical sports science. By applying engineering principles to the kinetic chain, Thompson has become an expert in optimizing rotational power and deceleration—concepts that are as vital for a pitcher's delivery as they are for a basketball player's jump shot or step-back.

In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I explore why the femoral neck can be uniquely resistant to change and why this often has less to do with exercise selection and more to do with blood flow and neurovascular entrapment. A simple case study question opens into a deeper look at pelvic anatomy, vascular supply, and how circulation drives bone remodeling.I break down the arterial anatomy of the hip, identify common neurovascular entrapment sites that limit blood flow to the femoral neck, & explain why checking distal pulses may be the assessment you're missing. I also unpack the relationship between pelvic floor tone & inhibited blood flow to the hip joint and how addressing it can change femoral neck response.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Ep. 9: Left Side Sciatica or Right Side Shoulder Pain?Ep. 75: The Colon ConnectionInfo from the handout I mentioned- Femoral Neck Vascular Anatomy: Hip Joint Anatomy Article (pages 7-8) & Blood Supply to Head of Femur (slides 2-7)- Vascular Entrapment Areas: Iliopectineal ligament and inguinal ligament, pectins/iliopsoas, quadratus femoris, sartorius, proximal rectus femoris- General Pelvic Congestion: Episode 49 - Pain on the Sacrum- Practical Treatment Area: Hip Flexor Release & Obturator Canal- Practical Treatment Area: Posterior Inferior Pelvic floor Mobility- Practical Treatment Area: Obturator nerve glide- Practical Treatment Area: Adductor hiatus / distal sartorius soft tissue mobilization - decompression with flexible cup or self massage - Practical Treatment Area: Hip Medial Glide- Practical Treatment Area: Prone supported frog stretchTools To Support These Treatments- Soft Ball for Self-Massage* & Flexible Cups*Learn the LTAP® In-Person in one of my upcoming courses*This link is an Amazon affiliate link, meaning I earn a commission from any qualifying purchases that you makeConsidering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

In this episode, I'm joined by strength coach Matt Taylor to talk about what it really takes to get stronger when life is busy. We dig into the concept of bare-ass minimums: the essential actions that keep you progressing even during chaotic weeks—and how to build a training routine that fits into real life. Matt shares how he coaches lifters to make meaningful gains in under five hours a week, why anchoring habits matters more than willpower, and how to set goals that won't burn you out. We also dive into his own journey: from world records to an autoimmune diagnosis, and back to competitive lifting using a more flexible, sustainable approach. Whether you're short on time, struggling with consistency, or just want a smarter strength plan, this conversation will help you rethink what "effective training" actually looks like.
