Rich is the director of Strength & Conditioning at Trois Training in St. Cloud, MN. At Trois, Rich focuses on training High School & College athletes from various sports like football, hockey, swimming, volleyball, and track & field. He has developed an incredible program at Trois, and created a great training environment. We talk about how he's grown the Trois program and many of the nuances of coaching in the private sector. 
We also talk about how he structures is training programs for athletes in-season vs off-season, and some of his though processes behind his training philosophies. 
This is a great episode and it was great to pick-up ideas from Rich, plus Rich is originally from Wisconsin, so that's always a bonus!


Quotes:

  • "Everybody loves the coaching part, but you have to get people in the door. Be aware that you'll always be recruiting and selling, it's a necessary evil"
  • "Our social media is about celebrating our athletes - it's not for hard sales or our latest deals - it's to highlight our athletes"
  • "We always end our warm-up with either a sprint, jump, throw - I call it warm-up then wake-up"
  • "When working speed and acceleration with team sport athletes compared to my sprint group is working 360-degrees of movement"
  • "I've noticed when we really started implementing loaded carries with our hockey athletes, they stayed on their feet and absorbed checks better"
  • "I can't say enough about the performance gains we've had from split squat"
