Athletes will lose 8-12% of their speed over the course of a season. That is a massive decline. Unless you train speed during the season. The choice is yours

My NOT so hot take:
As a coach, I shouldn’t be able to tell what sport your programming for when I see your athlete in the weight room

Meaning, no fancy “sport specific” exercises, no ball or sticks attached to bands

Just:
1. Sprint FAST
2. Jump HIGH & FAR
3. Lift HEAVY

[Brendan Thompson, PT, DPT @BrendanThompsn]

Speed is not just about running faster.

It can also improve other aspects of performance such as:
- Jumps
- Explosiveness
- Quickness
- Speed reserve

This gives you a better idea of how hard it is to play at the next level.

That’s not meant to discourage anybody. If that’s the goal for you or your athlete, go chase it.

But the value isn’t just in the outcome. It’s in what that pursuit demands of you…

Better practice or

What if I told you getting faster improved your conditioning?

It can… here’s how:

Gains do not occur in the weight room

Gains happen during your RECOVERY from the weight room

No recovery means no gains

Congrats Blakely on joining the 17mph club? @LHSBlueJays

[Fred Duncan @Fred__Duncan]

One of the biggest misconceptions in training is that hard equals effective.

It doesn’t.

Someone with zero experience could create a workout that leaves you exhausted in minutes. Push a prowler until you collapse. Run until you throw up. Making someone tired is easy.

A lot

Point less.
Own more.

That’s leadership.

31’5” truly is absurd.

The standing triple jump is an exercise for all athletes. And, it ain’t easy!

Keep up the good work Brian!

Advice for 2026

Don’t stress over criticism from people you wouldn’t seek advice from

Surround yourself with people who talk good about you behind your back

Be practical when considering advice from people who won’t live with the outcome

We know that all movement originates in the brain.

Our goal is to ignite that system. To train not just force output, but the rate at which that force is produced. The faster the signal, the faster the movement.

This is where rate of force development (RFD) becomes everything
