As human beings, it is wired in our DNA to crave comfort. To subconsciously make things as easy as possible. But that’s not how you grow. If you want to maximize your potential as a leader, you must condition yourself to be comfortable… being uncomfortable.

ACL injuries are a common trend in sports. There are multiple ways to become more resilient to these types of injuries, such as teaching landing mechanics, jumps w/ perturbations, SL training, etc. An overlooked area is VMO strength. Here is our banded TKE progression.

Izzo ‘The weight room, strength and toughness is so important ‘. High school athletes take notice. If u want to achieve greatness in any sport u better be great in the weight room first.

Unfortunately, many athletes have experienced toxic teammates or bad team chemistry at one point or another. https://t.co/UsiAbSya9t

Here’s one of the most important lessons that young strength coaches can learn. You don’t need to constantly test strength as long as you’re training for it and monitoring progress along the way. https://t.co/JIg8km4sM5

[Simpson Strength @Strength_SC]

Moving the bar with maximum speed and intent each rep leads to greater strength. Don’t go through the motions, have intent with every rep

Geno Auriemma 💯⤵️

“If you go to class & you do average work - you get a C - that’s why it’s called average. If you want a B - you have to do more work & if you want an A you have to do even more work. You have to give up stuff - you have to sacrifice.”

[Brad Dixon @coachbdixon]

Speed-based football isn't about being soft. It's also not an absence of strength. It's recognizing there is more to building an athlete than their number in the squat rack. We had 19 guys squat 300+, 16 guys clean 205+, and 15 guys sub 5.00 this year. Athletes not powerlifters.
