Velocity Is Not Linear

In this episode Bill Miller, Kip Steingart and I pick up where we left off with the discussion on in-season training. These two answer the following questions:   1. How do we balance strength and power in-season? 2. How can we determine when we need to pick up intensity vs dial it back a bit? 3. What are some of the different recovery modalities we like to use with our players? 4. What does a mock in-season program look like?   Remember, do not hesitate to reach out to us with questions.

Our goal is to help our athletes perform at their highest levels especially during game play. Players work incredibly hard during the off season to increase their overall skillset and improve their measurables. The question at hand becomes what should we do for training when we are in season. In this episode, we ask Bill Miller and Kip Steingart a handful of questions pertaining to in-season training including: Why is in-season training Important? How do we train athletes with a busy schedule? What can we track to ensure our athletes are maintaining their strength and power? 

It is getting close to the time of year where players will be playing in major tournaments and attending various showcases put on by companies such as PBR and Perfect Game. Special Guest Bill Miller joins us to discuss everything showcases: What is a Showcase? How do we properly train athletes to excel at these events? When is the best time for a player to attend a showcase? Showcase vs Development: where should we spend our money?

In this short episode, we discuss the importance of helping teammates or players younger than yourself achieve their goals.

In this episode, we talk players through a process of determining their values, creating a vision set 3 years from now and breaking down annual goals. 

This episode discusses a brief overview of how to design a daily training program. We discuss the importance of setting your program in a specific order to maximize performance and minimize the risk of injury. 

In this episode we take a look at the assessment process in it's entirety. What is an assessment, why do we do a series of assessments and how do the assessments compare or differ when looking at things from a skill side versus the strength side? 

Every player wants to improve their overall performance metrics but needs to understand that performance and velocity is not linear. We will have highs and lows along the path to our end goal. Our job is to help you understand the most efficient path towards that goal.
