So you want to be prepared? Let’s talk about the key principles of athletic development.

Brett and Mike have both been coaching for over 20 years and have learned some valuable lessons about preparation, load management, blending skill, development, and strength and conditioning.

We discuss everything above and also cover topics such as:

  • conditioning based protocols
  • in-season programming
  • periodization
  • movement competency
  • and much more

To some, this episode may seem like common sense, but for others, it will be eye-opening. If you work with athletes, don’t miss this episode. Once you learn the key episodes of athletic development it will be much easier to be prepared for any sport.
