Clark and Barton sit down to talk swimming, preparation for big meets, how his parents influenced his success, and much more.  More on Clark SmithClark Smith is a 6'9″ freestyle and butterfly specialist and student-athlete at the University of Texas. Born April 17, 1995 in Atlanta, Ga., Smith had the ability to be a great swimmer within his genes – his parents, John and Tori, also swam for Texas and his mother was a member of the 1984 U.S. Olympic Team. Smith came within .04 seconds of breaking the National High School record in the 100 butterfly, an event he was on the USA Swimming Junior National Team for. University of Texas2013-2014In his freshman season Smith swam at the Big 12 Championships, placing fourth in the 500-yard freestyle, fourth in the 200-yard butterfly and sixth in the 100-yard butterfly.The 500-yard free was Smith's first event at NCAA's, and he immediately made a statement. Smith qualified for the championship final first coming out of the preliminary heats. In the final, Smith took out the first 200 yards in 1:38.02, a quick 200-yard free time in itself, and he held on until Florida's Dan Wallace took over the lead at the 350-yard mark. But it was Smith's last 50 yards that pulled him away — he out-split Wallace 24.03 to 25.28 to win his first national championship.Smith then took on the 200-yard free — he qualified for the semi-final, and finished 11th overall just 0.41 seconds behind the heat's winer. On the same night Smith led off the 800-yard free relay for Texas that took 8th. For his final individual event of the meet Smith took on the 200-yard fly, an event that was largely expected to be won by Texas. Three Texas athletes qualified for the championship final in the 200-yard fly, including Smith. Texas went 1-2 in the event, but Smith unfortunately was disqualified for a one-hand touch in the championship final of the event.2015-2016At the Big 12 Championships Clark won the 1,650 in a new school and Big 12 record of 14:31.29. He also was a member of the Texas 800 yard freestyle relay that took gold and finished 4th in the 500 yard freestyle. At the NCAA meet, Clark didn't enjoy the same success as his sophomore year. As the defending champion and top seed in the 500 yard freestyle, Clark didn't manage to reach the finals, finishing 21st in the prelims. He was also the top seed in the mile but finished 12th in the prelims.2016 Rio Olympic GamesIn his first Olympic Games, Smith earned a gold medal for his heat swim in the 800 meter freestyle relay. He lead the team off with a 1:47.20 split. Smith, Jack Conger, Gunnar Bentz and Ryan Lotche combined in a time of 7:06.74 to put Team USA through to the final in second position.2017 World ChampionshipsOn day one Smith missed out on the 400 meter freestyle final after finishing 12th in 3:47.12.

Townley Haas joins Josh and Noah to discuss the first night of the Men’s Division I NCAA Championships. Texas takes care of business on night one led by 200 Free star Drew Kibler who teamed up with Austin Katz, Carson Foster, and Jake Sannem to defend their title in this event. Kieran Smith had a great leadoff leg for Florida’s relay going 1:29.66 and Texas A&M’s Shaine Casas led off their relay in a new school record time of 1:30.59.

Florida junior Kieran Smith was already the American and NCAA record-holder with his 4:06.32 from last year’s SEC meet. The fastest swimmer in history in the event, Smith hit the gas early, going out 1.3 seconds faster to the 200-mark than he was in his American record swim a year ago. Meanwhile, Georgia freshman Jake Magahey went out in about the same pace Smith did a year ago. And the distance-oriented Magahey followed the Smith gameplan, dropping his splits into the 24-highs, and even outpaced Smith with closing splits of 24.8, 24.4 and 24.3. Magahey wrapped the race in 4:06.71 – putting him as the #2 swimmer of all-time behind only Smith. Top Performances All-Time, Men’s 500-yard free Kieran Smith (2020) / Kieran Smith (2021) – 4:06.32 — Jake Magahey (2021) – 4:06.71 Zane Grothe (2017) – 4:07.25 Townley Haas (2019) – 4:08.19 The next night, with Smith swimming the 400 IM, it opened the floodgates for the freshman Magahey to take the SEC title in the 200 free, swimming another come-from-behind race to touch out the competition at 1:32.2. Magahey walks us through his freshman season and what made it such a success.

This week’s guest is Jay DeMayo, strength coach at the University of Richmond, working with basketball and swimming, lacrosse and tennis.  In the world of swimming, Jay also spends time with Nova Aquatics where he has worked with Olympic Gold medalist Townley Haas.  In addition to his day job duties, Jay puts together the Central Virginia Sports Performance Seminar, and also runs the CVASP Performance Podcast. Jay is one of the growing number of users of the 1x20 strength training system where he gets great results with his athletes with less stress coming out of the weightroom.  It isn’t the only method Jay uses, however, as we’ll talk about how this work is used as a tool in the context of long-term athlete development. Ultimately, talking to Jay gives us great insight into what really matters when conducting a strength program for athletes.  He is one of the most practical strength coaches I know, and has great insight on the process of developing players. Today on the show Jay and I will talk about a variety of topics, including year to year development of college athletes, daily workout progressions, key performance indicators for basketball, the 1x20 system, aquatic strength training and more. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. Key Points: Jay’s background as a coach Long term and year to year development of collegiate athletes Using the foundational movement training, 1x20, Triphasic and Velocity-Based training systems over time What Jay’s daily workouts look like for his squads Jay’s ideas on some key performance indicators that physical preparation for basketball can enhance Ideas on “slow cooking strength” over time for maximal athletic performance gain Weekly weight progressions in the 1x20 system Jay’s work with swimmers in context of the 1x20 program What Jay’s work with swimming has taught him for working with other sports Jay’s unique beliefs in the strength and conditioning field Quotes: “Let’s find the minimal stimulus required to elicit adaptation, once they are able to handle that stimulus, or adaptation has occurred, increase it slightly” “If you’re building properly, and your not hammering the kids, you can continue to progress for a very long time, even in the competitive season… and then you come back and they don’t lose as much” “Our warmup is a combination of the gymnastics bodies crawls, and the Dan John carry series… two birds, one stone.  You carry something down, you crawl back” “(for basketball), We look at vertical jump quite a bit, and we look at that versus squat strength, and as they keep adding weight, does that number keep going up, and when that number starts to flatten out, well now we need to start thinking about something else, right?” “Look good, feel good, play good” “You gotta allow them to have autonomy, especially this generation.  If you can explain it to them, and allow them to have imput in it, it’s awesome” “You need to be willing to go outside your comfort zone, to ask questions, and to question what you’re doing and learn from people who are a lot smarter than you” About Jay DeMayo Jay DeMayo is in his 13th year as a strength and conditioning coach at the University of Richmond, and his eighth year working with the men’s basketball team.
