This summer marks my 19th year preparing college athletes for their competitive season. This week I took some time to reflect on that. Below are 19 lessons learned from 19 teams.

Moving sub-maximal loads (40-70% of 1RM) with maximal speed and intent is a great way to train motor recruitment efficiency and maintain strength gains in the in-season portion of your program.

This smile is everything. Jamir Watkins spoke about 9 words to me all last summer. I spent the year trying to gain his trust. I told him numerous times about the jump he would take between his freshman and sophomore seasons. This smile speaks volumes. Watch out A10!

VCU Hoops 24-7. Won the A10 by 3 games. Won 8 straight road games to end season. Won 19 out of last 22 games. Makes total sense that an 18 loss team is rated five spots higher in the NET.

We crawl everyday. Why? It is a terrific cross lateral movement that makes strong connections between the left and right side of the brain and their respective innervation patterns. This makes you more efficient at organizing how your body moves.

Not bad for a hooper. During Mo’s first fall on campus at VCU I asked him if he ever played football. His response: freshman year of high school, it was too hot, and I was allergic to grass.

We have a rolling or tumbling variation everyday as part of our warm up. Why? Rolling and tumbling is terrific for body and spatial awareness. It is also a great baseline for understanding how to fall. Use it or lose it.

No Hands Get-Ups are a calm contrast from traditional performance training. They involve both linear and rotary stability as well as the comprehension of linking movements of the body together.

This is the best news of my day!!!
ESPN Sources: Memphis Grizzlies G/F Vince Williams Jr. is expected to sign a new three-year, $7.9M guaranteed contract. Williams — 47th overall pick out of VCU in 2022 — is believed to be getting the most guaranteed money coming off of a two-way deal.

We have a loaded carry variation every day as part of our pre practice session. Why? Works nearly every muscle in the body. Great for stability. Think of it as a moving plank hold.

A message to athletes, parents, and sport coaches: Anyone can exercise randomly without REAL purpose or intent. Actual TRAINING takes time, intent, and sacrifice. Results don’t show up in a day or a week. Stacking days on top of days and weeks on top of weeks!

When you arrive to early workouts and the weight room looks like this, you probably have a great assistant.

I’ve been blessed with some terrific assistant’s in my career. Seamus Glennon ranks near the top of the list. His feel for what the athlete needs, who they are, and what buttons to push are way beyond his years!

As our season begins tomorrow I will be going silent on social media. This is my example to my team as we talk about sleep hygiene and screen time. It is also time away from the feedback, both good and bad, and the dangers that come from that. See you guys in April.

95% of college athletes think they have the best strength coach in the world. A)They know no better B) they never had another one. I am fine with either of these options. The “buy in” of the student athlete is the most important factor in training.

The goblet squat is one of our favorite late season variations. It shifts the load away from the spine while still engaging the muscles in your core.
