The answer is NOT always so cut & dry. Coaches who insist that a certain exercise is the best way or the only way, that is unfortunately not the truth…. Some Coaches post content for more likes and views, here’s the truth, even if nobody likes it .

Love !!🤝🏾💕but not satisfied.

You should stay In Relentless pursuit of getting better. Can’t talk it, if you’re not willing to walk it

The ultimate definition of a Cowboy. His storytelling was legendary and one of the kindest people I’ve met. RIP Walt Garrison 🙏🏻

Don't be that guy lol

I know a lot of coaches who work long days 12 months a year. However, many coaches are notorious for accumulating non-productive hours at work, or “junk hours.” Who gets more done? 1) The athlete who goes to the gym for 90 minutes of focused, productive, work. 2) The athlete who goes to the gym for three hours without a plan and goes half speed while checking their phone constantly. Every coach will say athlete #1 despite athlete #2 putting in twice as much time. But would the coach say the same about their own work schedule? Is it more productive to work for seven hours a day while being focused or are many coaches stretching seven hours of production into 12 hour days and calling it a “grind?” I’ve been a head men’s college basketball coach for 11 years. When I hear of 80 hour work weeks I cringe at the inefficiency, and to be honest, I also think the “hour-counters” struggle with their math. Each sport season has busy times, slow times, and down times irregardless of level. You can’t be afraid of a hard day’s work, a hard month’s work, or a hard season’s work. There will be some 14 hour days. There will be road trips where you’re gone for days at a time. However, if you value efficiency and do it right there will also be flex days of 5-7 hours of work, short days of 3-4 hours of work, and off days. If we are being honest with ourselves we can all do a better job of being efficient with our time and that of our staff. We can also focus on doing the things that produce results and trimming the “junk hours” off each day. Do a 360° analysis of your program. What produces results? What is just spinning wheels and getting nowhere? Ultimately, coaches who eliminate the waste love the freedom it provides everyone, including the student-athletes, while at the same time not compromising on success.

Thank You. It’s kind of sad if you really want to know 😐😐😐

Woke up at 1:52 AM & could not fall asleep for over an hour. Woke up wondering why certain kids are NOT showing up to train with their team??? My entire life would have changed if I had this opportunity when I was a teen athlete. Hard to shut it off when you care so much!

Next tail whooping headed your way. SMS 7th grade looking for 2-0 #Bearcats

I love these kids and the game more than anyone could know.

What parents want their child to do for “sport specific,” training
