Today we are joined by Denver Pioneer Director of Sports Performance Matt Shaw. Matt has built their facility and their “sports science” together to provide better for their student athletes. This includes a step by step look at how they have selected technology and how they share that information and where they are looking to make improvements. This is a sensational view into each step of building and implementing a very successful program. He also shares with us some of his influences from different coaches and different fields, and how going “outside of our scope” to learn has helped him become a better coach and manager. We finish off discussing his role in travel and nutrition with his athletes, and how they have been moving forward in that realm.

Chris Hays joins us this week to discuss how we, as coaches, can take a bit of what we talk about with progressing training and flip it over to us and our education. Chris compares the idea of building the base in strength to our educational backgrounds, and when/where we can look to specialize in our learning. In the world on one sport only roles, Chris shares with us his thoughts on being a coach working with a board array of teams and coaches, and how that can make you a better coach in a leadership/director role.

This week, I discuss some issues with subjective questionnaires that we have seen with coaches trying to coax certain answers out of their athlete’s. This obviously has many consequences to utilizing these as a measurement of readiness or training load, so I share thoughts on how we can use this tool better.

This week, I share my thoughts on the whole Chelsea not lifting weights because they don’t have weights on them when they play. I think we, as coaches, are missing the forest though the trees when we start to have arguments on this and need to focus less on what these great athletes are doing now, and more on what they were doing to become what they are today.

We, as coaches, like to talk about how we can control volumes and look to apply the most effective dose of training, but how does that change in season for your developmental kids? Most of them are practicing a ton, but are you killing them in the weight room? In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I discuss this and some things we do for those kids to keep them engaged during a long season where they will get no “reward” for their work, that’s all done behind the scenes.
