Episode notes

In this episode, we explore the evolving landscape of high school strength and conditioning with Kyle Keese from Denton Guyer. We discuss how to balance efficiency and athlete accountability while managing high volumes of training, focusing on the practical application of movement systems and performance technology.

Episode Highlights

  • Efficiency through Systems: An in-depth look at "The Grid," a movement system designed to manage large athlete volumes while promoting student accountability and maximizing coaching time.
  • Technology Integration: Strategies for utilizing velocity-based training (VBT), Shredmill hardware, and AI tools to enhance performance monitoring and athlete safety across different training levels.
  • Cognitive Development: The importance of integrating cognitive load drills—such as the "Goat Drill"—to improve athlete adaptability and assist in early identification of potential injury symptoms.
  • Sport-Specific Conditioning: A breakdown of how to shift away from traditional conditioning toward patterns that mimic sport-specific demands, including retreat runs for hip mechanics and small-sided games for tactical development.
