Inside a Team Speed coaching session - filmed live and unfiltered.

Last year in Grand Cayman, Stu McMillan, Les Spellman, Danny Foley, and Chris Guarin spent multiple days working with coaches through Team Speed sessions, both on the field and in the gym.

What you’re seeing in this snippet is fly-on-the-wall access to world-class coaching as it unfolds, with coaches on the floor and decisions made in real time.

The short clip is taken from a free three-part video series filmed during last year’s Team Speed Cayman event. The series opens a small window into that environment and how speed work is actually taught, connected, and progressed over time.

This footage serves as an entry point.

Launching this spring, the Team Speed Coach Certification takes the same coaching logic and develops it into a complete, structured professional pathway for coaches working in team sport.

When you register your interest, you’ll receive access to the free three-part Team Speed Cayman video series, where you’ll see:

• How warm-ups are organised around locomotion priorities
• Why hip extension, foot–ground interaction, and spinal coordination anchor acceleration preparation
• How change of direction is coached through braking, vector change, and reacceleration
• Why the first deceleration step shapes everything that follows
• How weight room work reinforces the same movement themes trained on the field

This is fly-on-the-wall footage of experienced coaches teaching, adjusting, and progressing work across multiple sessions, environments, and days.

The value sits in seeing how ideas carry across people and contexts over time.

The complete Team Speed Cayman video series is available as a free resource when you join the Team Speed Coach Certification interest list.

Man City will not win the Premier League this season, and it is Pep Guardiola’s fault.

🚨 First release from the ALTIS Living Lab — now live & free to download.

The ALTIS Living Lab is where performance meets practice. It’s a new initiative embedding research directly into the training environment—exploring real athletes, real constraints, and real coaching questions.

📊 Case Study 1, authored by Stuart McMillan, Patrick Wilson, Dan Pfaff, and Dr. Matt Jordan, dives into how constraint-based sprint drills—specifically Activator Belt dribbles—affect gait asymmetry, movement variability, and control in an elite sprinter returning from injury.

Built on in-shoe sensor data from Plantiga, this applied study shows how task design can shape motor strategies, guide recovery, and inform better decision-making in return-to-play.

🔍 “Plan B should resemble Plan A as closely as possible.”
🔁 Variability is valuable information—not distraction.
📈 And asymmetry? It’s not always a problem—but it’s always worth understanding.

[Shawn Myszka @MovementMiyagi]

If you’re at the @ALTIS Speed Summit today, be sure to check in for @thecoachjav’s presentation this morning where he will explore how the ideas @StuartMcMillan1 began to unpack here live & breathe in practice & training environments to facilitate an athlete’s skill development!

[Shawn Myszka @MovementMiyagi]

Props to my buddy @StuartMcMillan1 (& the entire cast of @ALTIS of course) for the continued steps taken to impact the field in their authentic way this weekend at the Speed Summit!

Your passion, expertise, & energy for changing the way that the world thinks about a topic (speed in sport) is inspires me & many others!

[John Griffin @_CoachGriffin]

"We are what we repeatedly do, therefore, excellence is not an act, but a habit"

Grateful to the Altis community for having me at their inaugural conference. It was an incredible honor to learn from the brilliant minds who spoke and attended. Huge thanks to @StuartMcMillan1 and Dan Pfaff for welcoming me into your world!

You don’t need to be a sprint biomechanist to help your athletes get faster.

As speed becomes the buzzword in every team sport environment, many S&C coaches feel pressure to overcomplicate it, chasing techniques, drills, and biomechanical rabbit holes that may not serve the athlete in front of them.

In this clip, @StuartMcMillan1 makes the case for simplicity. Drawing from 25+ years working with the world’s fastest athletes, he breaks down the core principles that matter most and how coaches can apply them without needing to be a track coach.

[Shea W Fitness @FitnessShea]

Just listened to @StuartMcMillan1 on the Huberman podcast, these points really stand out for me

– “Skipping” isn’t fluff — it builds self-organization
– Eccentric > concentric for movement
– Coach the athlete’s solution, not your cue
– Weight room = split, staggered, elevated

[Shawn Myszka @MovementMiyagi]

“Keep it simple, stupid…is stupid.”

My friend @StuartMcMillan1 is starting things off right at the @ALTIS Speed Summit!

Simple or complex…

Gold.

Really enjoyed this chat with @StuartMcMillan1 ahead of the @ALTIS summit!

Looking forward to Chicago!

Take the time to pay attention to how you're moving.

Lifted from my convo with the legendary @stuartmcmillan1, which might transform how you think about movement.

Episode 910. Don't miss it.

[richroll @richroll]

What if the key to peak performance wasn’t found in the weight room but in a game you played as a kid?

Tomorrow, I’m joined by legendary sprint coach Stuart McMillan (@stuartmcmillan1), a man who’s helped over 70 Olympians earn more than 30 medals on the world’s biggest stage.

His approach? Less about grinding, more about grace. Less rigidity, more flow.

It’s a radical rethinking of how we move–one that just might reconnect you with your body in a way you’ve forgotten.

Episode 910 drops tomorrow.

✌🏼🌱 – Rich
