Buddy Morris Was RIGHT About These People
Here is another reaction clip. This time to another strength coach. But here is the catch. This coach (to my current knowledge) has and does not work in college athletics. Yet he is talking about why college S&C is wrong. To me, if you have not worked in it. You do not know what is going on and therefore should not talk about it. Check out the reaction and let us know your thoughts._______________________________ 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.

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.

The Jets Won The Game Last Night Because Of This
We know we have been talking about this a lot. That should show you how important we think this topic is.

If after taking the 9 minutes to hear, you can watch the video you still think we are wrong, that is fine. But at least hear us out. We are talking about this so much to help out athletes and better serve them.
