Coach Glass Podcast

I don't care what you like to geek out on as long as you geek out! Don't just dip a toe in. Go DEEEEP into your hobbies, passions and interests and find mastery in it. Dive straight down the rabbit hole till you hit the bottom, then drill down deeper. Never stop geeking out. It is the secret to happiness. I went to the mecca of geeking out last week. The PGA Show is full of lego haired, middle age...

Are you doing it for the work or the jacket? Are you here to progress, grow and evolve your skillset or just want to be seen? Are you wanting to put your best performance against the best in the world or just want the reward? This episode goes DEEEP into this topic. Its okay to wear the jacket if it represents the work you put toward the common goals of the team! Want a DEEEEEP dive into the WHY b...

How do you prepare for your best performance? Well I I can tell you that what you do and what the best players on the planet do is very different. Im not saying you need to quit your job, hire a full time swing coach, medical staff, trainer and get a manufacturer who tweaks your clubs to match the course. You can however learn a ton from the daily routines, warm up and range prep that the PGA star...

In today's episode we go DEEEEP into the concept of Hard Focus and Soft Focus and how they relate to your DreamBIG. Don't focus on acquiring the dream. Focus on being the type of person who accomplishes things like your DreamBIG. I learned this technique while meditating. Deep focus on one thing allows you to free your mind to creatively dream of things your conscious mind cannot create. Then you...

I hate New Year's Resolutions. If it was that important for you to make changes in your life you would have made them already. Don't get me wrong, I am 100% behind you changing habits or things in your life that your heart knows needs to be altered. The problem with changing habits is how we approach the process. We create pass or fail scenarios that are unrealistic. I will never, ever do "X" agai...

This week on the Coach Glass Podcast we are revisiting a conversation I had with the great Martin Rooney @themartinrooney. Martin is a coach, author, father, husband, athlete and all around badass. His Training for Warriors brand is one of the most respected and sought after gym franchises in the industry. On the @perform_better circuit he sells out shows and blows the doors off their hinges. His...

Every 5 years you need to throw out the old and bring in the new. From your fashion, business strategy, hobbies and way of thinking. Life is impermanent. It is always changing and so should you. It has been said that our fashion, music and everything else we think is cool stops evolving the year you get married. This means if your parents were married in 1970, they will listen to classic rock, say...

The off-season is a perfect time to switch up your training programs and work on elements that aren't being addressed during in-season play. During the competitive season, my athletes use neuromuscular training techniques which I call High TripleXity to maximize their speed, athleticism and efficiency of movement. In the off-season, we want to switch up the training stimulus and challenge the body...

You have the ability to reframe your mind. Not only choose what you want to focus your thoughts on but you can also control how you feel about them. In today's episode, we are exploring the way to control our thoughts and emotions. This is not about faking your way into thinking life is rainbows and unicorns. I am actually talking about the opposite. When you feel pain or suffering you need to run...

I believe there is an "I" in TEAM! The "I" is you and what you contribute to that team. The "I" is one part of the entire collaboration process that a team requires to execute its goals. This episode is different one. I lost my voice in Milwaukee like Q-Tip lost his wallet in El Segundo. Bare with me while I try to Barry White my way through this journey that took me from Vancouver to Alabama to W...

Put stress on the body and the body adapts to that stress. This may sound counterintuitive, but applying a negative stress yields greater adaptation than a positive. WHAAAT??? "Jay! I thought you were Mr. Positive!" I am talking about negative lifts in the gym! We break down the negative or eccentric training techniques that yield greater muscle development with less orthopedic cost to the body. D...

Applied pressure over a long duration of time yields massive change. I'm coming out of the orthodontic closet. I have braces! There I said it. 49 years old and wearing braces. I didn't just get them, ohh no! I have had Invisalign and now braces for almost 3 years! You didn't notice you say? Ohh that's because I haven't smiled properly since I got them. Hiding them from the world. Like I use to hid...

We are celebrating a massive DreamBIG. The Coach Glass Podcast has officially reached 1,000,000 downloads. I honestly couldn't even fathom the idea when I started the podcast on Feb 27th, 2014. It was just meant to be a fun project that would help me polish up my speaking skills. It turned into one of the most successful podcasts in our genre. I couldn't have done it without my Glisteners. Each we...

This is part 2 of my Vietnam experience. In this episode, we focus on the undeniability of the Vietnamese people. I am inspired by the resiliency of the human spirit when it stares directly into the eye of adversity. We spent some time in a home-stay in Tam Coc. This was our attempt at living like a local and experiencing daily life in this farming village. We got hit by a typhoon in Phu Quac and...

I just got home from Vietnam and want to share with my Glistener family all my stories and insight from this incredible journey. The plan was for my wife and me to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary in this magical country. What we saw and experienced far exceeded our expectations and opened our eyes to a way of life that everyone needs to experience. There is a strength and resiliency in the...

If the past 3 years have taught me anything it is that life is unpredictable. We can all agree that nothing in life is guaranteed or follows a script in nature. But somehow when you think about your career or personal development you map it out in a sequential and predictable format. "Once I get this then I will get that. That will allow me to accomplish this which will make me feel like that." Un...

Should you take the fastest route or the road less travelled? It doesn't matter, just hit the road Jack! Any destination worth the journey requires you to move your center of mass in the direction of your goal. Where you aim your compass at the start of your 5 year DreamBIG could have a dramatic change in direction 4 years in. The important thing is that you started. I went to college to be a high...

I want you to consider compartmentalizing your life. This is a technique I use in all aspects of my business and personal life to stay in the present. I picture each task, each client or each situation as a room. Once I enter the room I close the door to the room I just left. Once in that room I give 100% attention to that room and what is needed at that time. You can do this on a Macro or Micro l...

Ask me for $10 you get $20. Want 20 push ups I'll give 22. Want a ride to the bus stop I'll drive you all the way home. Overdelivering is a mindset. Always be looking for ways to sweeten the deal, go the extra mile, make someones day. Trust me it will pay you back in dividends. I go DEEEP into this concept in the 2nd part of my book DreamBIG OverDeliver BeUndeniable. Start small with the ones you...

What are you training for? What kind of body are you trying to develop through that training? Want to get bigger, smaller, shorter or taller? Stronger, faster or be a movement master? How you approach your training routine, daily routines, nutrition, and mindset will affect the outcome of the work you put in. What drives me crazy is that most people train just for the sake of training. No outcome...

This is a feel good episode. Just got home from Perform Better Providence and I am fired up! Back on the big stage sharing my training systems and DreamBIG philosophy gave me an incredible boost. But hanging with my fellow speakers and learning from my peers and mentors gave me a gift that will keep on giving for years to come. Kind of like the 'Jelly of the Month Club' " You are a lucky man Clark...

To be undeniable means you will not be denied. Being Undeniable is a mindset. This doesn't just happen. It is built on a foundation of always doing the hard thing first. Always stepping up when the shit hits the fan. Taking the tough road out so the ride home can be enjoyed. Everyone knows a person in their life who always takes the easy road, bails out when the going gets tough and never sees the...
