In today's solo episode, I break down 10 essential keys to building a well-rounded athletic performance program. These programming elements are often overlooked or omitted in favor of a more "machine-based" training approach. I'll cover both the specifics of sets, reps, and training structures, as well as key principles that enhance stimulation, learning, engagement, and focus—crucial components for an athlete's overall experience. By refining both stimulation and the athlete's attentional "spotlight," we can create training that feels more dynamic, engaging, and effective. The keys to a more complete program, are as follows: Embrace Constraints and Limitations Study Physical Education (Instead of only “Sport Science”) Integrate Rhythm and Music Work Polarities and Waves Use Complexes Embrace Uncertainty Understand the Performer Environment Relationship Test and Use Leaderboards Use Risk Train Yourself Today's episode is brought to you by TeamBuildr's Gym Studio and the LILA Exogen Wearable Resistance Training Sleeves.

(18:13) "Take a step back and see what one set can do for you." (45:49) "The art of question asking, I think, is a really huge piece in finding understanding. It's been absolutely essential in my own development." (56:12) "Distance running, the more efficient every step, is ultimately less energy in each step. That's going to mean every. Every step. You're going to have less fatigue, you're going to have more energy at the end of the race, and it's a big deal." (1:02:59) "Ultimately, that true passion, that reason you got into this thing and the thing that you enjoy doing yourself, you love doing that movement, that style of training yourself, and you can intake that and run it through, you can embody it. That also helps your learning." About Joel Smith Joel Smith is the founder of Just Fly Sports and is a sports performance and track coach in Cincinnati, Ohio.

We are going to drop into a whole new kind of location on the WASP, the Turks and Caicos Islands, near the Bahamas. Drexwell Seymour was raised in this British possession into a family with very modest means but not knowing any different, he was a happy child. However, he endured quite a bit of racism while in school, which greatly affected his self-confidence. He threw himself into his studies and graduated high school at the age of 15. He got an incredible break when an American philanthropist awarded Drexwell a scholarship to attend Wilmington College in Ohio, where he earned a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Business Management in only three years. He then precociously added on an MBA from Miami (Ohio) University by the time he was 19. Armed with these degrees before he turned 20, he returned to his home islands, hoping to get into the hospitality industry. We have all encountered this Catch-22 - he was told he couldn't get into that industry because he didn't have experience. So with his accounting degree, he created his own opportunity in that field, and later eventually started his own firm and became owner of a hotel as well. Suddenly the young man who had been filled with self-doubt was a respected community leader, and his success has springboarded him to become a civic leader in the vexing issues facing his small country, which still has not achieved independence from Britain. It has also led him to writing books and speaking gigs. His first book, Rise Up and Take Your Position: Don't give up. Find your Gift and Cultivate It became an international bestseller on Amazon. He's just released his second book, Succeeding In Your Position: Ten Essential Ingredients for Success that covers how to build self-confidence, deal with everyday challenges, and live passionately and purposefully to achieve all of your goals by detailing the numerous timeless concepts that anyone can use. Among these he teaches is how to find your gift, search for meaning in your life, overcome your fears, how to look at failure as opportunity, and then cultivate your meaning, work on it, and rise up to share it with the world and make you successful. I think you'll enjoy hearing how this dynamic man seized every opportunity given to him and used the gifts that he discovered only through hard work to change his life trajectory and be able to share it with others.Drexwell Seymourdrexwellseymour.cominfo@drexwellseymour.comFacebook Drexwell SeymourInstagram @drexwellgseymourHis books:https://www.amazon.com/Rise-Take-Your-Position-Cultivate/dp/B09JF3W26J/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=https://www.amazon.com/Succeeding-Your-Position-Essential-Ingredients/dp/1637653719/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=Bill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram @stahlor and @coachstahlYouTube We Are Superman Podcast

Grand challenge in this episode: The Dairy Dilemma About the Challenge The purpose of this project is to leverage a preexisting online professional development resource and its large following of SBA educators to create a more effective model of professional development where teachers engage in immersive experiences in agriculture, capture those experiences via the formats already used by Owl Pellets, and share them with their peers to develop an ever-growing community of practice around grand agricultural challenges founds within teachers' local communities and FANH careers. One of the primary goals of this project is to re-engage SBA educators in the challenges, technology, and work of their local agricultural community – making grand challenges local.

Real Issues. Real Conversations. An Ohio Humanities Podcast.
County Lines is WYSO's series focusing on small towns and rural communities in the greater Dayton area. Funded by a grant from Ohio Humanities, Community Voices producer Renee Wilde travels down the highways and back roads to tell stories of country life that go beyond the stereotypes. This week, hear four short stories from County Lines about the next generation of Ohioans, and listen to more stories from the series at wyso.org/county-lines. Act 1: Aryn Copeland is a Senior at Wilmington College. She's graduating with a degree in Agricultural Communications and is torn between two job offers—one in a rural community like the one she grew up in, and one in an urban area. In this interview with her professor Corey Cockerill, Aryn weighs the pros and cons of her decision in Corey's office at the Robinson Communications Center on the Wilmington campus.Act 2: Aryn Copeland interviews her professor, Corey Cockerill, about her journey from the suburbs to rural life. Corey Cockerill teaches Agricultural Communications at Wilmington College, but she didn't live in a rural area until about 10 years ago. Corey grew up in the city of Mount Vernon, but when she went away to college—she met and fell in love with a farmer. Corey now lives on a farm and is raising two young children in his remote hometown of just over a thousand residents.Act 3: Future Farmers of America was founded in 1928 in Kansas City, Missouri as a way to educate the next generation of farmers. Today, FFA is a national organization for young people interested in leadership and agriculture. There are over a dozen local FFA chapters in the Miami Valley - including one at Northeastern High School in rural Clark County. Producer Anna Lurie went to Northeastern to learn about FFA and to teach the students a little bit about radio.Act 4: Clubs like FFA, which stands for Future Farmers of America, serve as both social and educational roles in rural communities. Kayla Wise credits FFA for her decision to pursue an agricultural degree. Kayla also never believed in climate change until she took a class at Wilmington College called Individual and Global Policy. Lucy Enge was also in that class, and she asks Kayla how it affected her viewpoint on climate change.And, later this year, join WYSO and Ohio Humanities again for the forthcoming series The Ohio Country. Native men and women from different tribes and their allies—plus teachers, artists, scholars, parents, landowners, foresters, young people, and historians, too—will tell their stories about the about the lands above the Ohio River, known as the Ohio Country. You can listen in this feed, at WYSO.org, ohiohumanities.org, and in all those other places where you get podcasts.

Produced by KSQD90.7FM (We apologize some background noise.) “Be Bold America!” Sunday, March 27, 2022 at 5:00pm (PT) Authoritarianism is antithetical to democracy. The January 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol, the invasion of Ukraine, and the militarizing of police in many of our cities are living examples of authoritarianism in action. Are there any similarities between them? Our two interview guests, Dr. William Benet, creator of the Polarities of Democracy theory, and Dr, Joseph McMillan, former President of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives, say: “Yes!” They say, residents often feel as though the police are an occupying force rather than helpful servants of the people in those communities.

And he felt the pull of his ag degree. And it merged with his creativity and desire to provide local food. He created a side business. He intends to springboard the family farm into even greener pastures. Enjoy Zach's twisted pretzel story coming up, learn about his brother Lucas's new product offering and how the Blankenships have made Market Wagon a family affair. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (00:45): Welcome to More Than A Mile, a local food podcast from Market Wagon focused on connecting you to local food through farmer stories from across America. I'm Nick Carter, your host, a farmer and CEO and co-founder of Market Wagon. We are your online farmer's market with a mission to enable food producers to thrive in their local and regional markets. Food is so much more than just nutrients and calories. It's actually the fabric that holds us together. And I look forward to crafting a generational quilt of farmer stories and experiences, the victories and challenges of individuals, families, and teams doing their part to help democratize food in America. Thanks for joining me for this episode of More Than A Mile, and thank you for buying local food. It's one critical step in making an investment in food for future generations. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (01:36): All right. My guest today is Zach Blankenship. And if that name sounds familiar it's because my guest last week was his dad, Chris Blankenship. And now we are joined by entrepreneur number two in the family, I guess. Is that accurate to say Zach? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (01:50): Yeah, I would say so. Yeah. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (01:52): Well, thanks for joining me today, Zach. I love talking about local food with local food producers. Let's just get started with the simple question. How did you start Z.N. Blankenship Concessions? How did you get started with this? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (02:02): I kind of--so I, my father's farm, mom and dad's farm Bluebird Meadows--last week's interview-- I grew up going to farmer's markets and everything, we're going on about 20 years now. So I kind of grew up around the local food movement, you know, seeing all the artisan bakers and the donut man, you know, bringing everything to Saturday morning markets. And so as I kind of was going through high school and working the farmer's markets and stuff, I kind of had headed aside, you know, what, what the future held. So I always loved farming, always loved the local food movement. Always, obviously, Bluebird Meadows has a special place in my heart. So I ended up going to Wilmington College, shout out, down there in Wilmington, Ohio. Close to the Indiana line down there. So I ended up getting my degree in agricultural business. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (02:55): And so, I graduated in 2018. Next two years, I worked for an insurance group. I was doing agribusiness underwriting. And then, so how this kind of comes full circle. Bluebird Meadows started with Market Wagon and it hit the road running. I mean, it was, it was great. So, very quickly, those the, you know, year three at the insurance company, I had the opportunity to go back to the farm. So took that. And that's kind of how, how I got started with the pretzels. We went down to Alabama to pick up a old Coke trailer, you know, something cheap that we found down there that we could fix up. And that was my vision. My vision was to, you know, do fairs, festivals, concerts, all that kind of stuff on the side, when I wasn't at the farm. You know, doing the soft pretzels, we were gonna do pretzels, dips, and a couple different other items. And like we were talking about earlier, then COVID struck, we had one event under our belts. And then my dad was like, 'Hey, listen, maybe consider putting the pretzels on Market Wagon, see if that's an option for you.' So shot the email over, you know, I think, shoot, probably two, three days later, I think we had the products on there and, we're really rolling with that too. So yeah, the farms, my nine to five [job] and pretzels are my five to question mark. We roll them fresh every Monday, Wednesday. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (04:21): Wow. So the opportunity, the growth that took place on Bluebird Meadows farm, which brought you back to the family farm as an employee, or, you know, part of that enterprise gave you the flexibility and the opportunity to then go grow your side gig, which is like you said, five to question mark, the pretzel business, Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (04:38): Right? Absolutely. Yeah. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (04:40): Wow. That's really cool. That's kind of why we're here, right? Enabling food producers to thrive--this is a great story. So did you ever get to roll that trailer into any events--any of them before the world changed and large gatherings of people didn't--did no longer happen anymore? 2020? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (05:02): Yeah. Yeah. We went to a small little--it was like a community festival of sorts. Did one of them. Did decent, obviously with anything there's a little bit of learning that goes along. When you're trying to feed the masses, but yeah, yeah. That, that went well. And like we talked, you know, COVID hit and you know, overcome and adapt, I guess, is the, the motto here. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (05:24): That's exactly right. So these pretzels are now available on MarketWagon.com and you said you make them fresh the day that they're ready to be delivered. Now you got this renovated Pepsi trailer or Coke trailer, which was it, Coke? They're all the same in my mind. Well, so you got this renovated trailer. Are you still frying your pretzels there, on wheels, even though you're not going anywhere or did you get a stationary kitchen? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (05:55): Yep. We got a kitchen now. We moved into a kitchen and rolling them there. Funny story about that concession trailer though, we kind of re-outfitted it and it's now used as a barbecue trailer at the farm. We're slinging fresh brisket, barbecue, you know, pork shoulder, all that good stuff on the weekends at Bluebird Meadows. Yeah. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (06:16): Oh, that sounds delicious. Awesome. So you were able to put it to use no, nonetheless. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (06:21): Yeah. Yep. Thankfully, Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (06:23): So growing up on a family farm, what are some of the biggest lessons that you learned? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (06:28): Oh, man, I, you know, this is a question that's kinda--as the farming population, I guess, dwindles there's less and less farmers out there, you know? So you come in contact, whether it's at a farmer's market or wherever you may be, people ask, you know, what's it like? You know, what do you? It's a good question. I don't even know if you could, could summarize all the things that you kinda learn and just how you grow-- lessons learned on the farm and all that good stuff. I'm the oldest of four, so it's myself, my younger brother, and I have two younger sisters. I guess the biggest lesson would be more hands is less work, you know? My mom and dad, and then us four are very, very involved. Still are for the most part. Everybody is, my sisters are away at college, but when they come back, they're helping, they're packing for Market Wagon, delivering all the good stuff. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (07:18): It's a family enterprise, Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (07:20): It's family enterprise. Yeah. And, and I guess, I guess the biggest lesson, because how, how all the, whether it be the, the pretzel business or the farm itself is bet on yourself. You know, I think that's the, the biggest lesson. And if you work hard and you believe in it, I think there's always avenues for success. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (07:39): That's great. I'm not sure how old you are. I remember getting the story from your dad on the family farm, but do you remember moving to the family farm? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (07:49): I do. Yeah. So we used to live probably 10-ish minutes away from where we are now. Yeah. And when we built this house, it was, I don't remember the exact year, but I was six or seven, probably. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (08:01): So you weren't born a farmer, you became a farmer at the young age of six or seven. Do you remember that transition? What that was like? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (08:10): I do. Well, I think every little kid has their thing that they're into, you know, whether it be a firefighter or police officer or whatever, I always wanted to be a, a construction guy or a farmer. So, Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (08:20): All right. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (08:21): Finally dreams come true, Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (08:23): Living the dream, right. Seven years old, your dad's like, I could do that. I can make you a farmer right now. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (08:28): We need, need help. Yeah. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (08:30): That's really cool. Now this, this little food entrepreneurship bug seems to be passing its way through the entire family. I heard that your brother Lucas now has a trail mix business on Market Wagon. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (08:42): Yeah. Yeah. He's he's the adventurer of the group. He went to school for outdoor recreation, kinda leads, hikes and guides, hikes and rock climbing tours and all that kind of good stuff. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (08:53): Ah, so hence the trail mix then? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (08:55): Right, right. He's down in the Athens area. And he had this idea. It's funny, you know, we all have ideas and kind of bring them to the table when we all get together for dinner, but he's like, 'man, what you think about the, the trail mix?' And I was like, I mean, it's a good idea. You know, the active groups out there kind of enjoy--he's gonna go like the organic kind you know, locally sourced route. So--Which has always been important to us. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (09:24): Okay. So Bluebird Meadows seems to be growing more than just grass fed beef, pork, and poultry. It seems like you're growing businesses. We've got at least three businesses that have started on these acres. We've got the original farm business, then your pretzel business and then your brother's trail mix business. Should we expect to see more businesses incubating on the farm? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (09:44): Yeah. I, the ultimate goal for us is to open a local butchery [and] smokehouse as well. So to use those funds that we're getting from the side businesses to eventually open up that processing facility, you know, open doors for more local farmers to bring their meat to us. We'll process it, smoke it for them and then we'll do the same with our stuff as well. So we kinda integrate everything. We'll raise it, we'll process it, we'll pack it. And then we have our outlets to sell it as well. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (10:16): Wow. That's really cool. Vertical integration is what they call it in the business world. So you're gonna be able to add more and more value to the products that you're already growing there on the farm. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (10:25): Yeah, absolutely. And that'll let us do, you know, if we wanna do different smoked flavors, if we want to do different varieties of X, Y, and Z, we'll be able to test that here. And then if it's up to our quality, then we'll be able to do that for us and for others as well. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (10:41): Where did you learn to smoke meat? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (10:43): We do a lot of barbecuing, so we'll smoke, shoulders, briskets, chicken, all that good stuff. And that's kind of been a passion project of mine on the side, I guess you'd say. So smoking pork bellies, trying to do our own bacon, ham, stuff like that. Just on the side, nothing of, on the commercial scale yet. That's hopefully what the future holds for us. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (11:05): Great. Yeah. Well, I guess if you're raising great meat and then you gotta learn how to cook it in the best way possible. So definitely it sounds like you're mastering that. That's neat. Now getting back to pretzels. So you had said that you had this inspiration for, you know, you've been to the festivals, you you've been going along, tagging along since you were six years old with dad at the farmer's markets, you see all these folks there making artisan food, selling it. Smells good, tastes good. But specifically pretzels. So tell me a little bit more, I mean, it's not as though somebody says, 'I wanna outfit a trailer to go to festivals and sell food,' you know, I might first think of elephant ears or lemon shakeups. How did you get to pretzels? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (11:43): Yeah, well, I've always, I guess, growing up with the farm, you know, take more of a niche route in a way. And I love, you know, the county fairs going around to those and, you know, you get your french fries, the fresh squeezed lemonade, whatever it may be. But, you know, walking around thinking to myself, you know, what else is out there? What would people like? I go to a lot of sporting events [and I] always get the soft pretzel with cheese. Why don't I give this a try? So that's kinda what birthed it there. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (12:13): Okay. So sporting events--inspiration for your pretzels. Can you remember--we talked about your farm memories. Can you remember the first pretzel that you had, that you were like, 'this is why I associate pretzels and sports.' Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (12:28): Yeah, absolutely. I grew up playing football, basketball, baseball, and the same with my siblings. And so we were at sporting events all weekend, every weekend. It seemed like if we weren't at a farmer's market we were at some kind of event. PeeWee football. I was probably seven or eight--in between games I got myself an original pretzel, salted pretzel with a little bit of cheese. And I think that was it for me. That's when I was sold. That was my favorite go to concession stand snack. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (12:55): Simple salted pretzel cheese dip. And, and the rest is history. Now we've got Zach's famous twisted pretzels. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (13:04): Yeah. Yep. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (13:04): Is there anything secret or special about your your recipe? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (13:09): Yeah. Well, we use honey--no sugar. So you get a little bit of honey flavors, which is nice. Other than that, I mean, they're not mass produced. They're hand rolled every Monday and Wednesday. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (13:21): Hand rolled. Are they fried or baked? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (13:24): Baked. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (13:25): Baked? All right. So you've got a baked soft pretzel, hand rolled, no artificial sugar. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (13:31): Right. Just the good stuff. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (13:35): Okay. What's next for Z.N. Blankenship Concessions. What's next? Is it gonna be more pretzels or are you going to be expanding the menu or what's next? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (13:43): Expanding the menu. I guess, no better time than now. I think we're gonna drop some bagels here soon. Yeah, we're gonna do some hand rolled bagels. So knocking out the final steps of making sure everything's good to go in terms of packaging and whatnot. Got the recipe down, but I think that's what's next. We're gonna put those on Market Wagon as well. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (14:04): Oh, that makes me hungry. I mean, there is, you can pick up a bag of bagels at the grocery store and they're nothing like fresh made bagels. That's... Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (14:14): I've done the test trials and they're definitely different. Yeah. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (14:18): Oh yeah, that sounds so good. Great. So this has been fun learning about your business and seeing how it's been able to be incubated on on your family farm and kind of grow out of the family farm. It's a great story. Thanks for taking the time with us. I want to just leave it open there. Anything else that you want customers to know about your business or you know, why you started it or where you're going? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (14:44): Aside from keeping an eye out for those bagels you know, I just--as we move along I guess maybe you would say into the 21st century with technology and everything, we're kind of moving from the in-person farmers markets to the Market Wagon of the world, you know? And so we always appreciate the feedback, the ratings, which is a great feature there on the site, like any business it's not possible without the customers. So, we appreciate it all. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (15:11): You've been able to keep up relationships with customers, even in the digital world, the online farmer's market. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (15:16): Yeah. You know, I thought it would be a little more difficult than it is, but it's nice to know that, you know, send the messages and be able to contact each other that way. It, it is both ways too. So customer to us and us to the customer. It's great. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (15:32): Awesome. Well, in addition to just finding Z.N. Blankenship Concessions on MarketWagon.com, where else can people find you, if they're interested in maybe following your trailer around? Finding you at events when that starts to happen again, how else can people get in touch? Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (15:46): Yeah, yeah. We are at the farm store here at Bluebird Meadows. I bake all the bagels and pretzels fresh there. For now I think that's about our cap. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (15:56): Okay. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (15:57): So, so I mean, mark wagon it's been really good to us, so I think we're gonna stick there for a while. Nick Carter (Host, Market Wagon) (16:03): Well, glad to hear that. Zach Blankenship (Z.N. Blankenship Concessions) (16:05): Yeah. Yeah.

Today's show is a Q&A with Joel Smith. It's a lot of fun to see the questions you all have, and putting together a list of answers. Some major themes in this show included the dynamics of how an athlete learns and acquires a skill, how to give athletes ideal constraints to learn a skill better (particularly on the level of the arms in sprinting and step-action in jumping), and then questions on training the spectrum of the force velocity curve. There also were a lot of questions and answers that lent to training individualization based on the individual structure of the body and if one is a “power or speed” based athlete, which relates to an athlete's ribcage structure and ISA bias, and of course, a lot of speed oriented questions.

Today's show is a Q&A with Joel Smith. We are back again for a series of your questions and my best answers. Today's show is by theme “The Speed Show” with a ton of questions on speed, acceleration, max velocity, muscle-relaxation speed, and even working with distance runners. Sprinting is always going to be a synthesis of so many elements of human performance, and is one of the highest-reaching challenges for any coach in athletic coaching (which is why it's also such a rewarding puzzle to solve). Outside of the common speed questions; I also had an interesting question on how to assess “swings in the pendulum” of training methods. The awareness by which we get to our own coaching biases is important, so I'll dig into some ideas there as well. Today's episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster and Lost Empire Herbs.

Timestamps and Main Points 1:59 – How to fix heel-striking in athletes 12:56 – A step by step process on helping athletes improve hip extension and delay knee extension 19:50 – Thoughts on flat feet being an advantage since you enter mid stance more quickly? 22:16 – The top 2-3 faults, issues I commonly coach as it pertains to start out of blocks, acceleration in those first 2-3 steps, and common drills I utilize for correcting said issues. 33:57 – How to periodize maximal velocity work.

We're delighted to speak with an icon of sales today! Jack Daly is a fascinating individual with an amazing track record! He is all about numbers. Jack has spoken all over the world and trained thousands of people. He has built six companies to become national firms, two of which were sold to Wall Street companies. Jack has fifteen “Iron Man” titles. He has played golf at over ninety-five of the top one hundred golf courses in the USA, he has completed ninety-five marathons in all fifty states in the USA, and he has bungee jumped the world's first and largest bungee jumps. Jack is joining us today to speak about systems and processes, entrepreneurship, and business owners in the meetings and events industry. You will learn a lot from what he has to share! Jack Daly's bio: Jack Daly is an experienced and inspirational sales trainer and sales coaching expert who inspires audiences to take action in the areas of sales management, corporate culture, and sales training. He brings over 30 years of field-proven experience from a starting base with CPA firm Arthur Andersen to the CEO level of several national companies. Jack is a proven CEO/Entrepreneur, having built six companies into national firms, two of which he has subsequently sold to the Wall Street firms of Solomon Brothers and First Boston. Jack's role as a sales trainer extraordinaire has helped craft “street-tested” sales methodologies that help create truly successful sales professionals and profitable companies. His professional sales trainer know-how has turned him into an accomplished sales coaching authority and author of books including Hyper Sales Growth, The Sales Playbook for Hyper Sales Growth, and Paper Napkin Wisdom, all Amazon #1 Bestsellers. Jack is an Ironman on five continents and has completed 95 marathons in over 50 states. He was married to his high school sweetheart Bonnie for 48 years before her passing in 2017, and is the proud grandfather to two grandsons and a new granddaughter. Jack received his B.S. from LaSalle University, an MBA from Wilmington College, and held the rank of Captain in the U.S. Army. His own business Jack knew at a very early age that he wanted to have his own business. When he was thirteen, he spent the summer interviewing two hundred accomplished businesspeople to find out how they became successful. They taught him that understanding numbers was vital when running a business. An accountant Jack became educated as an accountant and then went to work at Arthur Anderson directly after school. After that, he bounced around a bit in the corporate world to get his bearings on how the big companies ran because he wanted to own a big company one day. His own business He started with his own business when he was twenty-six and remained at it for the next twenty years. Since then, he has continued to run a business. He views his current business differently, however, because it is a quality-of-life speaking business. It all started with sales Although he trained as an accountant, Jack has always had a focus on sales. At thirteen, he had five employees delivering the newspapers he sold, and he grew his customer base from 32 to 275 in one year. That was where it all started for him. Southern California In 1985, Jack moved to Southern California to start a company. He started with four people, and in eighteen months, he grew it organically to 750 people. In the first three years, they made $42,000,000 in earnings, not revenue. Inspiration In the early nineties, while Jack was building that company, one of his employees hired Jim Pratte to help them grow. Jack was so impressed with Jim that he decided to take him along to his twenty-two other locations. Over the next three months, Jack learned about Jim's life and how he was helping people and companies grow. That inspired Jack to want to do the same thing. Jack Daly's philosophy on systems and processes Jack is all about systems and processes. He believes that you should build the practices that work best in your business. You should then build your processes based on those best practices, hire people, and get them to practice those best practices. The rest will take care of itself. A formula for better sales results Figure out what your top people are doing. Get those things into your system and sales process. Then have the rest of your salespeople practice that. Everybody's game will improve as a result. Military courses The courses that Jack took while in the military had a long-lasting impact on his life. They taught him about leadership in an ownership-type way. They also taught him about communication, public speaking, and the value of systems and processes. The three sins of sales management The three sins of sales management are: When a great salesperson becomes the new Sales Director, and things start to fail. When the owner or entrepreneur also wears the hat of the salesperson or Sales Manager. When the best salesperson gets made the Sales Manager, and they are also expected to sell in their territory. There are cases where Jack has identified success after taking a salesperson and making them the Sales Manager. There are very few of those cases, however. What typically happens is that you lose your best salesperson and get a mediocre Sales Manager. Often, the good salesperson misses the act of selling and leaves the company to go and sell for someone else. Jack Daly's advice for business owners regarding sales If you have sufficient capital when you start your business, grow your sales force in quantity and quality. If you hire the right person to ensure that happens and you pay them correctly, they should pay for themselves with the increased business that their team generates in under a year. CEO coaching Jack has been doing CEO coaching telephonically for the last four years. He allows about twenty-five percent of his clients to commit the first sin of being in charge of the sales team and being the CEO. He only does that because those CEOs do not have enough capital. Part of the answer Jack's ideal view of compensation for salespeople is 100% commission only. Also, at least 50% of the overall compensation of the Sales Manager should be predicated on the results of their team's sales. Paying salespeople a significant amount of money Jack has no problem with paying salespeople a significant amount of money. He had salespeople working for him who made seven figures when he, as the owner, was not earning that much. He does not believe in capping commissions. A sales playbook Jack is creating and packaging a sales playbook. It will be Thin to Win, and contain the processes and words that have helped the owners of small businesses become successful. After the book is complete, Jack will have regular practice sessions with salespeople, following that playbook. Inc. 500 Jack built six companies from scratch to become national firms. All six were very fast-growing, and one of them got to number ten on the Inc. 500 list. Jack had 120 salespeople in that company, and all of them spent a minimum of one hour every day practicing. Practice is the key Incessant practice is the key to success. Jack feels that sports teams are better run than most businesses. He points out that a coach would not consider putting a player on the field without a playbook and the practice that adjoins the playbook. Double your sales More than 50% of a salesperson's time gets spent on doing things that have nothing to do with bringing new customers in or growing the ones they have. The definition of sales is: Get new wins. Grow the ones you have. That means that if you get everything else out of the way and let the salespeople sell, you can double your sales without hiring an additional salesperson. For the biggest impact You need to make a list of all the tasks and delegate those you can to the right people. Then figure out the things that will make the biggest impact and move the needle the most. Focus on those. The secret potion Opening a business is a risk. Keeping everything under control is a bigger risk. Build systems and processes that work, and then delegate and empower your people to do the work. Let go, and let your people do what you hired them to do. Culture A culture, like systems and processes, needs to reflect the changing times. Some aspects of culture will never change, though. Human beings will always want to be recognized and rewarded. So taking the time to build the processes for regular and ongoing recognition is a significant foundation in any company culture. People also want to know how the company is doing, where it is heading, and how they are doing. So having processes in place for consistent communication is vital.

The Choral Commons begins our spring gather series on incarceration by welcoming Dr Catherine Roma, professor emerita of Wilmington College, and one of the foremost figures in prison choral music. Her work in Ohio has attracted admiration and attention nationwide. To this gathering, she has invited Michael Powell, an artist with whom she worked in the Marion Correctional Facility's KUJI Men's Chorus. An accomplished percussionist, Michael, recently released, starred in the production of Hamilton while incarcerated.This session will undoubtedly shed light on the perennial question of how to begin and build a prison choral program. Perhaps, more importantly, it will present the transcendent and compassionate power of choral music in inhumane settings.

Thanksgiving 2020, like so many other things in 2020 is going to be a little different. There won’t be the large gatherings and where people are gathered there will be masks and social distancing. A thanksgiving day different than we’re use to seeing indeed. That doesn’t even take into account some of the real life issues we are dealing with.

The Work in Sports Podcast - Insider Advice for Sports Careers
Hey everybody, I'm Brian Clapp VP of Content and Engaged Learning with WorkinSports.com and this is the WorkInSports podcast…A couple of quick updates before we get into today's podcast -- I want to welcome sports management students from Farmingdale State, you're incredible leadership team led by Sab Singh, just signed one to be a part of our Sports Career Game Plan curriculum and in the next month we'll be rolling out your program. Farmingdale joins the University of Dubuque, University of Florida, University of Findlay, Wilmington College, Middle Georgia State, Ball State, East Carolina and a handful of other colleges and universities around the country.If you are listening and you are a college professor, or know a college professor, or are a student who would like your college program to implement our program -- which is awesome, and teaches you how to become a Master at Getting Hired in Sports, and includes a screaming deal for WorkInSports.com premium memberships -- reach out to me. bclapp at workinsports.com -- that's two p's.If you are an individual who wants to learn how to become a master at getting hired in sports - check out workinsports.com/academyAlright, welcome Farmingdale State -- let's get into today's show.The question comes in today and it kind of calls me out. Which I love. I seriously love it when people call me on my sh!t. Well, when they do it productively. For example -- emailing me and saying “you are the biggest moron I've ever listened to” I don't love that. But if someone says ...hey, you talk a lot about this, but not enough about that”I love it because you are telling me what you want to know. I want that, I want to hear from you all. I don't want to make up what I think is relevant, I want you all to ask!So hit me up on LinkedIN, ask questions, email me, bclapp@workinsports.com -- that's my legit email. I want to hear from you all.OK, let's get to the question from Ben in Alabama “Hey Brian, I love the podcast but I am a little bored with the Monday podcasts lately. I feel like you are spending so much time preparing people to work in sports, but not helping those of us in the industry advance.I started in the business a year ago, and I'm anxious to grow. I don't want to hear as much about internships or resume building, I want to hear about other topics that will push me forward.”Ben thank you. I'll be honest, I read this at first and felt defensive… like wait, are you for real? My immediate gut reaction was to send you a list of podcast episodes you should listen to, and to explain to you the expert interviews that are all about advancement… but really,. When I took a deep breath, waited a second and thought about it… there is some good learning in here for me too.I guess that is your first tip for today. Take a breath before responding. I used to be the most emotional person in the newsroom. Someone challenged my work, I'd be ready to rumble. Someone asked a question about why I made a certain decision, I'd be on the cusp of war. I look back at how I performed in my earlier years and wonder how I survived. I had talent, I worked hard...but I was so confrontational and defensive. I was probably impossible to work with. Take a deep breath before responding, don't immediately feel like your honor is on the line. Don't assume people are out to get you. Be willing to constructively improve. Alright, that's a freebie -- didn't even expect to talk about that.Ok, let's get into some year one things you can be doing to improve your chances of being promoted and growing.1: Improve your Communication skills - this is not the old man saying “twitter has ruined grammar!”Quite the opposite. In some ways young people today communicate with more confidence that in my time. I would attribute that to social media. YOu arent afraid to say and share what you feel -- and that is good. BUT - there has to be an emphasis on quality. I receive emails almost daily from students and young professionals asking...

Today’s episode features your host, Joel Smith, talking on various elements of optimizing the manner by which an athlete experiences a workout. You could have similar workouts on paper, say 5x3 cleans or 10 jumps over a high jump bar, but the subtleties and nuances by which those repetitions are executed mean everything in how well an athlete will adapt to the movement, as well as move into the next workout with maximal freshness of the central nervous system. When you understand how to stimulate dopamine release, how to frame a workout to tap into the experiential brain, how to utilize sensory information to coach technique rather than internal cues (or even external), as well as how to make training fun and exciting when needed, you have the tools to turn an average program into an outstanding one. This isn’t to say meat and potatoes training isn’t important, because it certainly is, but having the tool-set by which to really optimize the way the athlete experiences the training process, both the fun and the repetitive, can really improve our effectiveness as coaches. 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 How to get into the experiential mode network while training, and not the default mode network and why it matters Training Gate Golf Long Jump Golf Low Rim Dunking/Playing Jump Games 5x200m Hurdles “Tricking” athletes into doing work (team sport principles) How the Easy Strength principles apply to speed and power training Ideas on making basic lifts more “experiential”, Olympic lift examples Olympic lifting Various ways to experience the bar and the second pull/sensory Some athletes just twitch different; when you do an Olympic lift well, it’s a harmony Various ways to approach the catch, etc. Keiser Jumper or anything else with a quantitative output Impulse in Keiser jumper is what matters/step up jumps Thoughts on VBT stuff How to structure a workout to maximize the manner in which the athlete processes and responds to the work Warmup/Meat and Potatoes/ISOS and super slow About Joel Smith Joel Smith, MS, CSCS is a NCAA Division I Strength Coach working in the PAC12 conference.

Today’s episode is a question and answer show where I take user questions off of social media and give my best answers. It’s always good to see what people want to know. Questions on today’s show came in clusters often focused on similar topics, many asking about patellar tendonitis prevention, weightlifting and squatting in relation to sprinting, as well as the training methods of Marv Marinovich and Jay Schoeder and what I’ve done in my own programs having that knowledge. Commonly asked as well is what I am doing with all the info I gain from the guests on this show, and what has been a big game changer for me. I covered this a lot in my last solo show, but there have been training ideas even since then that continue to spur me on towards giving my athletes the best training I can. Doing enough of these Q&A’s I’ve felt like eventually I might run out of topics but after 50+ questions, you all have given me plenty to talk about. I hope you enjoy today’s show, there is a lot of things I was really excited to cover. 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 What the biggest programming game changer in the last few years has been for me An over-rated training intervention in the world of sport performance How I address patellar tendonitis and knee issues in training, and how to prevent it Similarities and differences of the Marv Marinovich and Jay Scheoder training systems and styles (a big question!) How to make the weight room more environmentally similar to sport Lifting and its impact on sprint performance Heavy squatting and its impact on reactive strength How I approach neurological testing and training on athletes given my background in Z-health, NKT, Be Activated, and other systems The biggest change I’ve made to my resistance training programs recently About Joel Smith Joel Smith, MS, CSCS is a NCAA Division I Strength Coach working in the PAC12 conference.

Today’s episode is a solo show, where unlike the question and answer shows I’ve done in the past, I wanted to speak at length on a single topic that I felt could offer value to coaches and the opportunity to sit and reflect on how each of us arrived at how we see the coaching of athletes. Today’s show is all about my own development as a coach, and the evolution of viewpoints I have on various aspects of sports performance training. These viewpoints include ideas on cueing, maximal strength training, periodization, plyometrics, special strength, and mental training. The coaching of athletes is not a robotic venture; athletes need to optimize their own machinery in a manner that reflects with own body-type, biochemistry and environmental preferences. In the same way as coaches, I don’t believe we should all hold the exact same slant of coaching athletes, and each of us how individual aspects of our system that can deliver a unique experience to athletes in line with our personal philosophy. 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: Reflections on how my own development as an athlete shaped my views as a coach My journey in terms of viewpoints on maximal strength development, periodization and planning, plyometric training, and mental training Joel Smith, MS, CSCS is a NCAA Division I Strength Coach working in the PAC12 conference.

The Ohio Ag Net Podcast, brought to you by AgriGold, brings a wide variety of topics for episode 53. We start off with a parody song written and performed by our own Ty Higgins called "I just want to plant." Ty also recently caught up with a farm that's already planted a bit in Ohio for a test of how early soybeans may actually do. We hear his conversation with Jakob Wilson of JCW Farms. Joel Penhorwood brings some audio from the press conference last week with House Ag Chairman Mike Conaway with the announcement of the first draft of the 2018 Farm Bill. The big question now is whether or not we'll see it advancing in 2018. A big topic addressed in the Farm Bill is conservation titles. Matt Reese talks with Jim Hoorman from USDA NRCS about conservation tips during the recent Dave Brandt Field Day. Dale Minyo was at Wilmington College this past week and caught up with student Sara Pope about her path in agriculture. All that and much more in this week's podcast, courtesy of AgriGold.
Today’s episode is a question and answer session where I take user questions from Instagram. It’s always good to settle back and see what people are interested in, and things often tend to run in themes. For this episode, themes revolved largely around lifting in positions of large ankle dorsiflexion and knee bend, training setups and concepts for jumps, as well as questions about Christian Thibaudeau’s neuro-typing system. You can likely see throughout my answers that the different types of athletes in terms of nervous system strength, novelty need and the ability to utilize the stretch shortening cycle has made a big impact in how I create workouts. 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: Plyometric programming either within a strength program or separate block The role of biarticular muscles in training and performance How I’m using neurotyping to improve my training and workout writing My take on split squat variations with the knee passing as far in front of the toes as possible and some aggressive angle decline squats with load. The best training split for jumpers in track and field. How to improve ankle mobility for better vertical jumping Training for a high-rep lifting competition Variation in vertical jump training Vertical jump training for 30+ year old athletes Trail running and steady cardio for explosive athletes My use of the power jumper How I’m setting up my own training these days Concepts for overthinking athletes About Joel Smith Joel Smith, MS, CSCS is a NCAA Division I Strength Coach working in the PAC12 conference.

Today’s episode is yet another question and answer episode, which is the fulfillment of a call for questions I put out on Instagram. The themes of this question and answer series revolve around the feet and fascia, speed and vertical jump training, as well as general coaching questions of the strength and conditioning/human performance/track and field arenas. As the host of the show, it’s always fun to offer my thoughts on important questions in the industry. 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: Thoughts on Mike Boyle’s take on single leg training Building the fascia and tendons through plyometric training Hiring practices in strength and conditioning, and can it be based on ability rather than network? Ideas on micro-dosing of training My take on the hyperarch system and applicability to athletes Best practices in recovery and regeneration Building speed and power in martial arts Sprinting with a light weighted vest for top end speed How often per week to practice dunking in context of being on a traditional strength and power program About Joel Smith Joel Smith, MS, CSCS is a NCAA Division I Strength Coach working in the PAC12 conference.

Today’s episode is the fulfillment of the last call for questions I put out on social media. In episode, I’ll be covering topics ranging from speed training biomechanics to trunk and core training, to periodization, so this is somewhat of an eclectic episode, which is great, as it managed to tie into many of my thoughts and beliefs that I’ve done a lot of critical work on in the last few years. There are at least a half-dozen questions revolving around vertical jumping in some form as well. As always, the theme revolves around current trends in speed and power development, so if you want to hear my 2-cents with trends in modern sports performance, then I hope this proves an interesting listen. I’m glad somebody “set me up” because I finally get to offer some of my thoughts on the single leg Olympic lift trend that everyone was discussing on social media a while ago. Feedback on these question and answer episodes is always welcome, and I enjoy hearing what you have to say. 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 Questions The worst cues and myths in speed training and why Are elite athletes often good in spite of poor coaching? Bodyfat levels and vertical jump How to approach training when double leg jumping goes up, but single leg goes down Improving jumping when your standing vertical jump is the same as running jumps Thoughts on anti-rotation and core work Thoughts on Frans Bosch exercises The ankle as a weak link, and training it properly Dunking vs. Plyometrics: Which is better? Transferring speed from the weightroom to field event arenas Ideas on plyometrics for sprinting About Joel Smith Joel Smith, MS, CSCS is a NCAA Division I Strength Coach working in the PAC12 conference.

This Friedman Seminar features Daniel Maxwell, professor, Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, and acting director, Feinstein International Center, presenting “The 2011 Famine in Somalia: Beyond a Food Security Crisis." Abstract This presentation will be based on Professor Maxwell’s retrospective research on the 2011 famine in South Central Somalia, that resulted in the recent book, Famine in Somalia: Competing Imperatives, Collective Failures (Oxford University Press, 2016). The presentation will trace the causes and consequences of the food security, malnutrition and mortality crisis, but then address the complicating factors that made this such a deadly crisis. Some 258,000 people lost their lives in the famine, and hundreds of thousands more were displaced or had their livelihoods severely disrupted. These complications include the history and political economy of three-plus decades of continuous humanitarian assistance in Southern Somalia, the rule of Al Shabaab and the war between Al Shabaab and the fledgling Somali Transitional Federal Government, its Africa Union partners, and expeditionary forces from Kenya and Ethiopia, donor counter terrorism policies that put a significant constraint on external humanitarian assistance, the engagement of non-western humanitarian actors, the role of the diaspora and urban-based lineage and kin groups in responding to the crisis, and the way in which internal social dynamics shaped both the crisis itself and brutal abuses that people faced when displaced. Bio Daniel Maxwell is a Professor and the Acting Director of the Feinstein International Center at Tufts’ Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy. He leads the research program on food security and livelihoods in complex emergencies. He served as the Chair of the Department of Food and Nutrition Policy at the Friedman School from 2008 to 2011. Through his research, Dan works with governments, agencies, and affected communities to build the evidence base for improved humanitarian and resilience programming and policy. He recently published Famine in Somalia: Competing Imperatives, Collective Failures (Oxford University Press, 2016) with Nisar Majid. He is the co-author, with Chris Barrett of Cornell University, of Food Aid After Fifty Years: Recasting Its Role (Routledge, 2005), and co-author with Peter Walker, of Shaping the Humanitarian World (Routledge, 2009). Prior to academia, Dan spent twenty years in leadership positions with international NGOs and research institutes. He was Deputy Regional Director for CARE International in Eastern and Central Africa, Rockefeller Post-Doctoral Fellow the International Food Policy Research Institute, and worked for Mennonite Central Committee for ten years in Tanzania and Uganda. He holds a B.Sc. from Wilmington College, a Master’s degree from Cornell, and a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin. About the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy: The Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University is the only independent school of nutrition in the United States.

For many years the designation of an American Byway meant the recognition of a very special route and a very special history of the American Road. In the Spring 2012 issue of American Road Magazine, we caught a quick glimpse of a brand new byway in the birthing, The Quaker Heritage Scenic Byway in southern Ohio. On this TripTalk our guest Ruth Dobyns, curator of the Quaker Heritage Center on the campus of Wilmington College of Ohio shares the fascinating history of the Quakers, a group of American founders who were not only pioneer but also dedicated warriors in the battle against slavery. She then outlines the path the byway will take and the history it will visit. (You can get trip information, brochures and maps of the coming Quaker Byway by visiting http://www.wilmington.edu/qhc .) Thanks to Springfield, Illinois for sponsoring this American Road Trip Talk.
