In this episode of the PT Profit Podcast, I'm talking to coach Ryan Patrick, a seasoned facility owner and performance expert, to discuss the science and strategies behind building faster, more resilient athletes. Ryan shares his insights on strength and speed protocols that help athletes reach their full potential, whether they are preparing for competitive sports or simply want to improve their overall fitness.

Throughout the episode, Ryan explains how his facility, Peak Fitness and Sports Training, evolved over 15 years to focus on semi-private training with a particular emphasis on athletes. He also touches on how COVID impacted his business model and led him to pivot towards training more high-level athletes.

Key takeaways from this episode include:

* How to effectively assess and program for athletes

* The importance of balancing strength, speed, and resilience

* Managing athlete performance and recovery during the competitive season

* The differences between training male and female athletes, especially during puberty

* The unique challenges of working with underdog athletes and those returning from injury

This episode is packed with actionable advice for coaches, clinicians, and fitness professionals looking to take their clients' performance to the next level. Ryan also shares details about his upcoming training event, "Speed Simplified: Build Fast Athletes Faster," which takes place on October 1st, where he will walk participants through a step-by-step protocol to build resilient and high-performing athletes.
