We see a shakeup in the Div. 3 girls lacrosse power rankings rankings, as Foxboro (@CoachKFoxGlax) now leads all schools with a rating of 6.7739. Medfield (@MedGlax) is now second at 6.3959.

This is perfect. Three total body workouts a week followed by three relatively intense conditioning sessions will change your life. You don’t need to obsessively exercise two hours every day.

[Colin McCullough @ColinMcCullo]

@BjjTip Henry’s favorite move!

[Michael Boyle @mboyle1959]

Do you really want to help your teams conditioning? Do 3-4 short sprints early in practice( ideally timed). For hockey go goal to blue, basketball, end line to half court. Raise the ceiling, not the floor. Trust me,you’ll get plenty of low intensity in practice. @pntrack

[Colin McCullough @ColinMcCullo]

@mboyle1959 @pntrack Simple and effective. We implemented this 2-3x a week last spring with the girls lacrosse team I help coach. Fastest team we have had, no time lost due to soft tissue injuries and a final 4 appearance. This year we are looking to get timers.

Group exercise classes (Peloton, Soul cycle, orange theory) tend to have the everyday person train too hard.

Why? People judge the value of the workout based on their effort. Sweat and work hard= good workout

Most training should be pretty comfortable, but easy doesn't sell.

[Michael Boyle @mboyle1959]

I think this is important if you work with kids. Let practice be the primary filler for the endurance bucket. Prioritize speed and power as that is the “underfilled bucket”.

@mboyle1959 Just got my copy delivered. Look forward to reading.

[Michael Boyle @mboyle1959]

Spring high school sport coaches- the dumbest thing you can do is run sprints to “get in shape”. Sprints are to get fast and the volume of general running is already drastically increased. In week 1, less is more unless your goal is getting kids hurt. Practice IS conditioning.

@nathanbarry Our company did last month from constant contact. Great decision! Saving so much time. Your team was great to work with.

A great opportunity to develop speed 🏃‍♀️ agility and strength 💪 🏋️‍♀️! Options for both in and out-of-season athletes! See flyer below for details! ⬇️ #wintheoffseason @ColinMcCullo @DrewCurran8

[Patrick Cummings @PCHPerformance]

Don’t you need to condition your athletes?

Yes, but not too much.

Athlete A = max speed 20mph; 4th quarter has 80% left
80% of 20mph = 16mph

Athlete B = max speed 17mph; 4th quarter has 90% left
90% of 17 mph = 15.3mph

Athlete A still wins

Speed is king 👑

A common mistake we see with inseason training is athletes thinking that a session isn’t productive if it’s not as long as an offseason one. Many great inseason approaches feature 20min sessions, often trained 3-4x/week. Stimulate multiple systems/qualities without much fatigue.

[Colin McCullough @ColinMcCullo]

@stevemagness Really enjoying this book. Sport and performance add this one to your reading list.

[Dr. Spencer Nadolsky @DrNadolsky]

One reason people don’t start exercising is because they think they have to beat themselves up and spend hours in the gym to get results.

That’s not true!

Even just once or twice a week in the gym for 20-30 minutes at a time is a great place to start plus walking more.

[FOXBORO GIRLS LACROSSE @CoachKFoxGlax]

@mboyle1959 Just sent out emails today to all the parents of athletes in our summer session about this. Got a few replies “I was wondering why she wasn’t that sore.” Not the goal day 1.

[FOXBORO GIRLS LACROSSE @CoachKFoxGlax]

Get after it this summer 💪 🏋️‍♀️ with @ColinMcCullo and the ADK Sports Performance Training Crew. If you’re not already signed up for a S&C program- here’s another great opportunity. Reach out to: [email protected] for questions/availability. #wintheoffseason
