12 hours after the season was postponed we had 45 football guys at voluntary workouts this morning. They were being a team; pushing each other, laughing, supporting one another, signing to music, and just being around each other. It was a powerful morning and a reminder.

My advice to athletes when this is over. 1) Get on campus and train with your team or 2) find a good sport performance gym or 3) find a good training partner. Lifting weights and sprinting is the beginning. It’s about teams, teammates and coaches all in together. #SHUSTRENGTH

Things I wish I did earlier in coaching: ⁃Build a good warm up ⁃Add ploys to sprint days ⁃Cut volume down, 2-6 full speed works well ⁃Conditioning and speed work separate ⁃Best conditioning is playing sport hard ⁃Train all accel, top, curve, and COD speed.
