As fall sports come to an end---are you planning your off season training?

If your in a fall sport, you're currently racing towards the end or are already at the end of your season. Of course you wanna rest up and take a little time to mentally and physically recover. But don't sit around too long!

I am a thorough believer that games are won or last in preparation and/or practice sessions (thanks Phil Jackson!). So as your recovering, begin to plan out your off season training for next season in your head.



Take time to reflect on the outcome of this past season, and consider your training goals this off season as you consider these things:
  • Did you meet certain team and personal goals this past season?
  • How was your conditioning at the mid-point and end of the season on a scale of 1-10?
  • In thinking about these three skills: speed, agility/quickness, and power, in what order do they rank in terms of where you need improvement?
  • How well did your last off season program prepare you for this season?
Those are just some factors to consider when mulling over your idea of what to do this off season! If you need some help shoot me an email at PerformanceSport21@gmail.com. Ill help you out!

Readers are leaders!

I have always believed that leaders were also readers! To increase your ability to perform in "the zone", that level where your effort is at its maximum yet the game comes to you with ease, I have always recommended the book "Mind Gym" to my athletes.

Not your typical sports psychology book, this book is packed full of useful types on performing at your best no matter what.

Never before seen footage of Michael Jordan training Video


Michael Jordan is physically one of the best athletes ever to play sports. But what separated Jordan from others was his undying will and the training he performed that made him get better and better.

We've seen the dunks, the shots and the defensive moves of this Hall of Famer. but few realize the work ethic that he had which made him one of the top players---top athletes---of all time.

In this video, you'll see Michael in training mode as he prepares to play for his sport with the mental and physical aptitude of a Champion.

Always Compete

Pete Carroll is a coach who not only knows how to win, but he knows what it takes to maximize what you to do win over the long haul.

Pete created a national following based on the philosophy of always competing to "Win Forever." I believe we are on the cutting edge of a new way of training to play sports and actually to perform on the field. I can't say it enough that potential in athletes is unlimited, and it is only limited by imagination. Watch this video below on the "Win Forever" philosophy, and remember---ALWAYS COMPETE!

Training Mask---training your breathing capacity to excel in sports!

A buddy of mine named Jimmy Skodak told me about this awesome new training device he was using for athletes to train their ability to use oxygen better and to become more conditioned. He gave me a mask to try out for myself---and I was sold on it! I will be uploading video of athletes using this fantastic new device, but in the meantime, check out the Training Mask in the video below.
