Here’s a quick message to high school parents and athletes who want to play in college…
Hit the weights 🙂
These are pro guys who make their livelihood from their sport and even at their level they don’t neglect the weight room. They know it’s a game changer.
If you REALLY want to see your kids development sky rocket FAST…. Hit the weight room multiple times/wk for Months/Years. Ya it’s not flashy… but it works!
Week 1 of Summer Pride in the books! We had 200+ kids across multiple sports show up daily and worked their tail off! It takes a village to get that many kids through, so HUGE thanks to all the coaches that helped pour into these young athletes. The Noble Bears got better this week!! 💪
Athletes are getting longer rest periods. This is crucial for sports needing event-to-event recovery and for those with intense practice schedules. Smarter recovery leads to better performance. #AthleteTraining#Performance
Coaches & parents: Stop cutting weights in-season “to save the athletes.”
You’re actually increasing their injury risk.
A 2018 study showed that continuing
strength training in-season is one of the single best ways to reduce injuries

Here’s why it matters and exactly how to do it right👇
Hey Coaches!

Your summer season is fast approaching.
Don't forget about these three things:
1) Strength training
2) Sleep
3) Nutrition / Hydration
As an AD, one of the biggest challenges is understanding what athletes and parents truly want. Everyone says they want to win, but too often the communication I receive is centered around why practice is being missed, why workouts can’t happen, or why the commitment isn’t possible.
Winning is rarely about what happens on game day, it’s built in the unseen hours of preparation, consistency, and sacrifice. You cannot claim to want success while consistently avoiding the work required to achieve it.
Too often, “we want to win” really means “we want the rewards of winning without the discomfort of earning it.” When that gap exists, the blame often shifts to the coach instead of the habits.
Great programs are built when athletes, parents, and coaches all align in understanding that commitment comes before results. Wanting to win and being willing to do what it takes to win are two very different things.

All executed with mastery
Yet the average 13 year old thinks they need constant “new,” or “fancy,” exercises
Simple ≠ easy, kids
