Most ACL rehab research focuses on one question: "Can the athlete safely begin running?" That's an important milestone. But it's very different from asking: "Can the athlete tolerate sprinting, cutting, jumping, decelerating, and the chaotic demands of sport?" In this article review, Carmen Bott breaks down a recent ACL study and explains why return-to-running criteria should be viewed as an early rehabilitation checkpoint—not a return-to-performance benchmark.

Board presses have been a staple in powerlifting. Problem is sometimes you don't have someone to hold the board. Problem solved when you wrap a band around your chest and the board. Now when they work together only 1 person has to spot.

"The NSCA told me they never want him back here again" Words from @NutromicSports in this week's Supertraining in a Year podcast. Yosef is talking about Vladimir Issurin in this clip. Watch the full episode to find out why.... youtube.com/watch?v=CX2FVlPF…

The smelling salts tho. Is your team really hitting max effort or heavy weight if there aren't smelling salts in the room? Bravo Coach Whitt

Coach Scott Caulfield made two great points: 1️⃣ Develop young coaches by exposing them to meetings with ADs, sport coaches, and administrators—not just weight room responsibilities. 2️⃣ A military-style workout weekend doesn't create mental toughness. Culture is built through standards and accountability reinforced every day. What's interesting is Coach Rusty Whitt (10th Special Forces Group veteran, Combat Infantryman's Badge recipient) has said similar things on the CMW: toughness is built through a system, not a single event. When coaches with real military experience and decades of leadership experience agree on this, it's worth paying attention.

The backwards running and backward zig zag tho 🤌🤌🤌

Option C (the not listed one) Make it like Louie did - have a different exercise each week that they can hit a new PR each week of the month when they beat the prior week's PR Example: Week 1 - 10 yard 2 point stance sprint Week 2 - 15 yard lateral half kneeling sprint Week 3 - 10 yard weighted 3 point stance sprint Week 4 - Build 20 Fly 10 sprint then go beat your PR in weeks 5-8 and now they set a standard and beat it and you have done both - monthly trends improve and you can tell kids they hit x number of PRs. Now they (and coaches, admin, parents, etc...) all can feel extra confident they are improving. The mind is a powerful muscle.

One of the most impressive parts of this video from Coach Rusty Whitt original videos of Woods hitting 495 for a triple is how calm and causal the weight room was. This was a casual 495x3 which makes it even more impressive! Click below to listen to both of Coach Whitt's Cheeky Mid Weeky's youtube.com/watch?v=1veI2fV7… youtube.com/watch?v=QZc7rTll…

Head Strength Coaches: Stop micromanaging your staff. Hire good people. Develop them. Then get out of their way. Will they struggle sometimes? Yes. Will they brush against the guardrails of failure? Yes. That's how coaches grow. The best leaders don't create followers—they create more leaders. Click below for our FREE Director of S&C course. strengthcoachnetwork.com/dir…

Welcome to the new home of Bulldog strength. 🦾 This facility is more than a weight room. It's an investment in every student who walks through these doors. We're grateful for our partnership with @vanmeterschools. Having equipped their previous weight room, it's especially rewarding to see how far the program has come. We're honored by their trust and proud to support the next generation of Bulldogs. @treywpowerlift ✗ @VanMeterDawgs #PowerLiftProud #PowerLiftBuilt

Thanks for sharing @ChadButcher692 I would say the foundation to success for any of these programs is starting with Dr. Yessis’s 1*20 and running it for years before going to this. Shout out to @NutromicSports for the resource that has Docs work.

Don't let lead times slow down your season.⏰ Athletes don't stop training while equipment is on backorder. That's why Dashr Silver systems are stocked, assembled in the USA, and ready when you need them. Need a system in the next Day or Two? We can make that happen. #DashrSilver #SpeedMatters #AthleteTesting #FootballTraining #TrackAndField

Most return-to-sprinting progressions are actually conditioning progressions. Short rest intervals, excessive volume, and accumulated fatigue can change sprint mechanics and movement strategies—especially in athletes returning from injury. Sprint rehab isn't about running harder. It's about restoring: • Force • Stiffness • Rhythm • Coordination • Confidence Read the article below: strengthcoachnetwork.com/blo…
