What's Next: Week 1 "post show"
First week of training "post show"... getting caught up on lifting and life
If You Tell The Truth You Never Have To Remember Anything
Saturday is set aside for Hunter and I to train together. Because he's 10 years old, the set up is a bit different. We also need to consider the rest of his day which consists among other things a hockey game this evening. There is a lot of baloney about kids and resting before a […]
10/10- Back and Bis and surviving Hurricane Matthew
Other than losing a couple small limbs in one of our trees the power stayed on and we had no damage.
If The View Sucks, Change The Perception.
Today I brought into focus the "HOW to verbalize what you want". The moment I tell a person what NOT to do, they go and do it. (face palm) If only I tell a person what I WANT them to do, and leave the other stuff out, I get what I ask for. If I […]

Monday
Today our powerlifting squad hit their normal mobility work/warm up then headed to deadlifts. Goal today was to hit a PR single from the floor. Nothing was set in stone but didn't want anyone to fail and blow their load. Confidence is key at this point. After that heavy BB shrugs, glute ham raises, and […]

Be Tactical-What to Do at a Meet
As a Powerlifting coach you need to manage your lifters and do the thinking for them.
All they should need to do the day of the meet is lift.
Thursday Training: Deadlift/Bench
Tuesday: Bodyweight Circuit Push-ups/Dips: 60 reps Pull-ups/Inverted Rows: 60 reps DB Clean/DB Snatch: 25 each arm I played around with setting rep goals with different exercises. Bad idea. I spent more time (mental energy) figuring out how many reps I had to do to get to my goals. I'll stick with my normal Bodyweight Circuit. […]
Bonus SPRINTS
Bonus!!! My boy says to me after roller blading home from school..."Dad, we need to do a few 100 yard sprints". Boo YA! Out the door and onto the field. Warm up 100 yard sprints: 5x100 Cool down. Quivering hamstrings.

LMAO? I Hate It When I'm Laughing and My Ass Falls Off
Wednesday! Smack dab in the middle of the week. What things need addressed? What things are we lacking? Where are our weaknesses showing up? What things haven't we visited in a while? These are a few of the daily questions I remind myself of when I put together the objectives of the day all while […]
“DUDE, CAN YOU GIVE ME A SPOT?”
Know the difference between a powerlifting spot and a forced rep type spot. Not knowing could very well be the difference between a failed lift and a major injury.
