Podcasts about strength coach

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.

When a debilitating back injury derailed Jesse Prescott's own athletic endeavours over a decade ago, it created in him an obsession with better understanding the root causes of pain, learning how to strengthen his body against future injury, and sharing what he learned with athletes of all ages and abilities. What followed was a journey into the inner workings of movement and performance and a career teaching others how to overcome their own pain and unlock the best version of themselves through his corrective manual therapy practice and strength coaching. Soon, Jesse was working with some of the fastest runners in North America in Flagstaff, Arizona; constantly tweaking and improving his programming to be tailor-made for the needs of runners. Combined with his manual therapy practice, runners began finding a solution to years spent dealing with chronic pain and vicious injury cycles and The Robust Human Project was born. Today, Jesse joins the show to share his unique approach to pain management and his strength training philosophy, one that he believes is at the heart of helping runners of all abilities get healthy, stay healthy, and bring out the best performances of their career.Learn more about Jesse Prescott at The Robust Human Project websiteand on Instagram @the.robust.humanSubscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Thanks to this week's sponsor, CanPrevPrime your preparation, power your performance, and prioritize your post-run recovery with CanPrev.

What happens when life takes a surprise hard left turn and suddenly you're staring at a brand-new chapter? Do you crumble… or do you rise up and write the next page with faith, grit, and purpose? This week, I sit down with my great friend, powerhouse coach, and brother-in-iron, Bennie Wiley. Bennie and I worked together on NBC STRONG several years ago and I recently conducted this podcast interview just weeks after Bennie's tenure as the Head Football Strength & Conditioning Coach at USC (U. of Southern California) ended. Bennie's story is one of perseverance, transition, and staying grounded in faith through the messy middle of change. After decades in strength & conditioning — from the Dallas Cowboys to Oklahoma to USC — Bennie found himself navigating an unexpected career pivot. Instead of letting it break him, he's leaning into the unknown, rewriting his story, and chasing new passions with fire. We cover a TON in this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, including: The “next” chapter– how to prepare for what's coming even when you don't know what it is. Handling adversity – who you really are shows up when life gets hard. Family first – how Bennie is embracing time with his kids and creating moments he missed before. Bodybuilding lessons – what stepping on stage taught him about discipline, nutrition, and respecting ALL areas of fitness. Life wisdom – why keeping your circle tight and being fully present “where your feet are” changes everything. Writing vs. rewriting – Bennie's mindset shift that every chapter builds on the last, not erases it. This episode will fire you up to face your own next “season” with courage, clarity, and conviction. Bennie is raw, real, and full of life wisdom that will help you get your mind right and keep moving forward. Let's keep inspiring greatness, building purpose, and creating IMPACT together. Let's go up to IMPACT-X Performance Huntington Beach where we recently had a Retreat and listen to the interview with Coach Wylie NOW…   Tune in, take notes, and remember — you don't need to rewrite your story. You just need to keep writing it. Friends, if today's conversation brought you value, here's what I encourage you to do: 1.
