Coach Glass Podcast

It started with the 8 minute abs, then Harland Williams came up with the 7 minute abs because 6 minutes would be too ridiculous. So where do we go from here? How do we get the chiseled 8 pack with the lines that run into your pube trail? These aren't your usual run of the mill planks and crunches either. Ohhh no! We are stepping outside the box and going DEEP into the Abstract Absolutely Ab Ablite...

If you have been listening to the Coach Glass Podcast or saw me present at a @performbetter Summit you would know how I feel about the importance of developing your back for more speed and power. In particular I focus my attention on the "V inside the V" The 'V' refers to the shape that the lats make which athletes desire their backs to resemble. But it is actually the V inside that V that makes a...

How is it possible that you can be on top of the world one day and feel like throwing in the towel the next? Somedays the hole looks like a hula hoop and the next it has clingfilm on it. You hit 3 pointers like they are free throws and the next day you are tossing up bricks! Self confidence is a fickle thing. Your self belief however is something completely different. It is cast in stone! Let's go...

We need a major redefinition of what it means to be fit! Its not all Instagrams fault either. Fitness professionals are to blame as much as modern media. We are creating an image which is unreachable and unrealistic for most people (the people we are trying to inspire to be fit). I know you are rolling your eyes and thinking "Thats what fat people say!" Fitness should not be about a look. It's abo...

Did Tiger win the Masters or did he just have a midlife crisis? Mike Weir is training harder now at 48 years old than he ever has in his career. Is he getting ready for the Seniors Tour? Nope! Like Tiger he has a hunger to compete against the world's best week in and week out. The difference for both these athletes is that they know something the 20 and 30 year olds don't know. In this week's epis...

Cognitive Dissonance is where your conscious and subconscious mind are at odds. Your subliminal self talk says you always quit, come up short and fail at the last minute while your conscious mind is tired of losing! You will never develop a winners attitude until you break the belief cycle that is perpetuated in the subconscious. This episode comes from a #YOJAY question I received from a Glistene...

In this episode I take my minor in psychology and make a major impact on the way you think about your fitness. Liminal thinking is a method of creating change in a persons behaviour by attacking a habit or action on a conscious, subconscious and unconscious level. Why do you train the way you do? Why do you train at all? Why do you believe that your system is going to give you the results you are...

Exercises can feel great at times and other days it can feel like a grind. Same workout, same intensity but different result? You need to pay attention to the state your body is in and what you are trying to accomplish in your session. A perfect program means nothing if it is applied to the right body at the wrong time. Your exercises can be a stress to the body that illicit change in a positive m...

Every year I take the time to stop everything and "Sharpen the Blade." Im sure you are familiar with this concept. If you take the time to sharpen your knife you will be more effective at cutting your desired object. Be it a tomato or your business, the key is to look at it from the outside looking in and create a fresh sharp perspective. Every now and then you need to disconnect and look at your...

Compound exercises with 3 types of contractions, one of 3 mental states, involving 3 or more joints, 3 planes of motion, with 3 or more layers of complexity equals High Triplexity! You want to build efficient athleticism you need to challenge the athlete with these elements. High Triplexity is a term and type of training I developed to describe the style of training I do with my athletes. It is th...

What is the difference between a champion's brain and a novice? Can we train the novice to think move and react like a champ? Can we enhance performance in competition using drills and coaching in the gym? These questions and so much more in this week's episode. I have included my numero-muscular training techniques in my online LoadXplode follow along training program as well as teach coaches how...

Without a life mission statement you are wandering through life without a map. You may be going in the right direction but you are inevitably going to run into a few pitfalls along the way! My mission in life is to "Inspire others to greatness." How do you strip down your entire life into 4 words? You might need more words or many sentences to describe how you plan to approach all the different as...

CGP Ep270 Hot Yogaversary 1 year ago this week I tried hot yoga and have been doing it 3-5 days a week ever since! Adding this element to my routine has changed my life. Coming from a strength coach, this is a dangerous thing to admit! We use to make fun of these "fringe" fitness fads like Zoomba, Pilates, Aerobics, CrossFit, and Jazzercise. Well guess what Coaches… these are not fads and they are...
