His resume and list of accomplishments are too long to list here, although I will tell you that he is the Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Boston University Terrier's Ice Hockey Team and they raised the banner for being the 2009 NCAA Champions!!  Well he just did an interview with another Strength Coach Podcast regular, Alwyn Cosgrove, that he's calling the 'State of the Strength and Conditioning Industry'. In the interview he gives his take on everything from: How to spot good trainers and bad trainers The role kettlebells, bands and equipment should play in your coaching Why the best trainers are the ones who change their programs more often  The good,the bad and the ugly side of marketing. You might not agree with everything he says, but if you're a coach or trainer this is  something you simply have to hear.
