Coach has to lead by example; don’t ask for sacrifice, loyalty, hard work, and integrity if you don’t model it.

Perhaps I am cynical but when I see social media profile pics where it is the practitioner training or competing (especially with shirt off) it gives me an unpleasant insight into the person & their motives in the industry.Can’t help but think is it about them or the athlete/team

[John Cissik, MS, MBA, CSCS @jcissik]

As a coach, it’s not about you. It’s about teaching the sport, instilling values, and helping to mold young men and women into the kind that you would be proud to know.

[dr_duncan_french @DuncanFrench]

It's ALL about the athletes! Selfless, egoless professionals working tirelessly to arrogate progressive marginal gains on a bespoke individual level. Cookie cutter approaches only take you so far, and it's not to the top. @UFCPI. #servants

A study of the brains of 111 NFL players showed 110 had chronic degenerative injuries.

Strength.. The biggest injury prevention tool you can provide a player with #bestrong

[John Cissik, MS, MBA, CSCS @jcissik]

Strength coach probably spends the most time with athletes in some of the most difficult situations. If they have an opinion about the athlete, you should probably listen.

[Brett Bartholomew @Coach_BrettB]

Great coaches/leaders don’t spoon-feed. So many people want a path laid out for them step-by-step but don’t realize true learning comes from having to fight certain battles on your own. Especially those that occur in your own head.

My goal is to coach and teach myself out of a job. As coaches and teachers our goal should be to make our athletes and students independent. Don’t fear growth, embrace it.

[Brett Bartholomew @Coach_BrettB]

Represent the field responsibly. The value of a S&C coach expands far beyond the walls of the weight-room. Let’s act like it.

[Brett Bartholomew @Coach_BrettB]

And cue the angry mob upset because they don’t like to see others in “their” space succeed.

Shelf your insecurities. Seeing the value of S&C coaches rise helps all of us.
