Coach Glass Podcast

These 2 topics are basically talking about the same thing. Where we focus the lens may change but it is still about hitting the ball farther. Kinematic sequencing, ground reaction force, rotational plyometrics, neuromuscular training...

The Ying Yang of life states that with every positive there is a negative. If you want to achieve anything big, it will come with great sacrifice. I always talk about creating your DreamBIG. A dream so big that the thought of it coming true raises the hair on your arms. The question is...what are you willing to sacrifice to get it. There are countless stories of entrepreneurs who have a dream to b...

Mental Health is one of the most important issues facing the human race today. Obesity, racism, violent crime, substance abuse and suicide can all be linked to mental health. Somehow all the aforementioned topics are open for conversation but mental health is still this topic we tend to shy away from.

Adaptation occurs when you are at the brink of failure but find a way to succeed. This phenomenon occurs in physical training and mental development. You need to get uncomfortable. In strength training there are 2 camps. One says train with perfect form, stay in the sagittal, frontal and transverse plane and stay in control. The other camp says train in vulnerable positions so the athlete can hand...

In today's fast paced, sound bite while walking out the door, world we live in, you make some huge presumption. We presume that we only need to know the quote, see the video or hear just the gist to create an opinion. It is an Instagram thread of stories and images fire hosed to the back of the dome each and every day! What is the back story? Nobody got time for that! What context was it created a...

Fitness pros! Have you ever had someone walk in your gym and say," I am looking for some mental fortitude, grit and self belief!"? I thought not. It is a complete opposite. "I want to lose 10lbs, get stronger and improve my overall health!" They say they want physiological change but the most valuable thing they can leave with is psychological growth. Many of them don't consciously realize the cha...

Getting cut can be the best thing that ever happens to you. Making the team may feel good but in the long run it teaches you nothing. If you have never been cut you have never pushed your potential.

When was the last time you challenged yourself with something that made y...

18 months of coaching my athletes over Zoom came to an end last week and I finally got to see my players again in person! Man ohhh man I needed it.
