If you’re a parent, you how much having a child changes your life.  Every part of it. My wife and I have four kids. Our house is full of love, stress, joy, chaos, laughter, cries, hugs, and conflicts, all at once, all the time.  This morning I realized that many of the lessons I’ve learned as a […]

You know what’s worse than working really hard, trying your best, putting your heart and soul into something, and then getting absolutely nowhere with it?  The only thing worse than that is to work really hard, try your best, invest your heart and soul, and then getting WORSE. Unfortunately, athletes shoot themselves in the foot […]

I believe every athlete–and I do mean EVERY athlete–should train speed.  This includes athletes who don’t have to sprint (or even run at all) in their sport.

Take a look at the pictures above. Both […]

Most athletes make one of two huge mistakes when they are in-season: They stop lifting altogether They lift the same exact way they did in the offseason In-season, the goal is to maintain and make small, incremental gains. Training hard makes the body tired, and tired bodies aren’t good for gameday. So, the goal of […]

I’m going to assume I don’t need to convince you why speed training for football players is important.

In fact, being strong is an important part of being […]
