Coaching Means Serving
This is not one of those corny messages where someone talks about how much they are a servant leader and they go on telling you about how much they serve. Chances are those people are the most selfish and least servant based leaders. This is a reminder to coaches that our job is to serve the athletes we get to work with. We have the ability to work with some great people and help them achieve their highest form of potential. This is something that cannot be taken for granted. _______________________________Be sure to hit the subscribe button to get more free content from us#education #learning #coaching #podcast___CONNECT: 🎥YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StrengthCoachNetwork/featured📱Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strengthcoachnetwork🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/StrCoachNetwork🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/coach_j_lima📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strength_coach_network/📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coach.j.lima/🌎Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/📝Blog: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/blog/🏫Education Course: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/fundamentals🛒 Shop Gear: https://my-store-cd9833.creator-spring.com/___From our sponsor TeamBuildr 🌎Site:https://www.teambuildr.com/enTeamBuildr is a platform for any coach in any setting.

How To Work With Difficult Sport Coaches
This week we have talked about strength coaches needing to make more money to live their life. Once you earn a certain amount of money - you need to shift your focus.Remember, this is a service based field where it is about the athletes and helping them achieve their potential. It is not only about how much money you can earn. Make enough money so that it is not a primary concern where your next meal will come from, or if you can afford rent. But once you are secure, pour into the kids. We talk about how to do this in this clip._______________________________Be sure to hit the subscribe button to get more free content from us#education #learning #coaching #podcast___CONNECT:🎥YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StrengthCoachNetwork/featured📱Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strengthcoachnetwork🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/StrCoachNetwork🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/coach_j_lima📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strength_coach_network/📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coach.j.lima/🌎Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/📝Blog: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/blog/🏫Education Course: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/fundamentals🛒 Shop Gear: https://my-store-cd9833.creator-spring.com/___From our sponsor TeamBuildr🌎Site:https://www.teambuildr.com/enTeamBuildr is a platform for any coach in any setting.

Arm Care For Throwing Athletes
If you work with a group of athletes who throw an object - baseball, football, softball, javelin, etc... you need to make sure your athlete's arm is healthy to throw. This requires them to handle the high speed demands of their delivery. It also means preparing their lower body and torso to help produce the forces needed. Learn from current New York Yankees Director of Player Health and Performance, Eric Cressey, on this topic. _______________________________Be sure to hit the subscribe button to get more free content from us #education #learning #coaching #podcast ___ CONNECT: 📱Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strengthcoachnetwork 🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/StrCoachNetwork 🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/coach_j_lima 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strength_coach_network/ 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coach.j.lima/ 🌎Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/ 📝Blog: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/blog/ 🏫Education Course: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/fundamentals 🛒 Shop Gear: https://my-store-cd9833.creator-spring.com/ ___ From our sponsor TeamBuildr 🌎Site:https://www.teambuildr.com/en TeamBuildr is a platform for any coach in any setting.

How Much Technology and Analytics Is Good For Baseball?
The movie MoneyBall changed baseball forever when it came out. So did technology. Now every team in baseball (and just about every other sport) has technology. It has almost got to the point where a team cannot do anything without looking at what the data tells them about their swing, pitch, etc... Is this a good thing? We talk about it with New York Yankees Director of Player Health and Performance Eric Cressey about this. _______________________________ Be sure to hit the subscribe button to get more free content from us ___ CONNECT: 🎥YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StrengthCoachNetwork/featured📱Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strengthcoachnetwork 🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/StrCoachNetwork 🐦Twitter: https://twitter.com/coach_j_lima 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strength_coach_network/ 📷Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coach.j.lima/ 🌎Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/ 📝Blog: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/blog/ 🏫Education Course: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/fundamentals 🛒 Shop Gear: https://my-store-cd9833.creator-spring.com/ ___ From our sponsor TeamBuildr 🌎Site:https://www.teambuildr.com/en TeamBuildr is a platform for any coach in any setting.
