Poetry in motion.

Slow it down and speed tells you a story.

What are we looking for?
What’s the goal?
More importantly, what do you see?

Posture. Projection. Front-side mechanics. Ground contact. Limb timing. Stiffness. Rhythm. Where force is applied and how quickly they get off the ground.

But here’s the nuance: there is no single picture of “perfect” sprint mechanics.

Five athletes. Different sports. Different positions. Different anthropometrics. Different solutions to the same problem.

Understand the model but don’t become a slave to it.

Know what to fix. Know what to leave alone. Know the difference.

You can find five things to change on almost any athlete. That doesn’t mean you should change all five.

Find the small key that opens the big door.

One thing at a time.

One cue. One constraint. One adjustment.

Maybe today we find 1%, a better strike, cleaner position, shorter contact, better rhythm.

Then we stack it.

These athletes are learning. Improving. Refining. So are we.

Different athletes. Different sports. Different positions.

One simple goal: SPEED.

Not “football speed.”
Not “volleyball speed.”
Not “baseball speed.”

Before we make it sport-specific, let’s make them fast. Before we get in the weeds of energy systems. Use the tools we currently have.

Then teach them how to use it.

Move Better. Perform Better. Find the edge.

Hot Take *2
Running hard is easy to prescribe. Developing speed takes more thought.

What’s limiting the athlete? How quickly they produce force? How they apply it? Their ability to brake and reposition? Or recognizing when and where to move?

Those questions should drive the training.

Distance changes the demand. Rest changes the demand. A planned cut and reacting to an opponent can look similar while asking very different things of the athlete.

That’s why I care about what a drill develops not just how impressive it looks.

If the goal is speed, give the athlete enough recovery to produce speed. Keep cutting the rest, and you’re increasingly challenging their ability to repeat efforts under fatigue. Useful? Absolutely. But know what you’re training.

And account for the work already being done. Practices, games, lifting, extra sessions it all adds up in the same body.

Anybody can pile on work. Coaching is knowing what to add, how much, and when to get out of the way.

Intent over intensity.

I could tell you what training with me is like… but I’d rather you hear it from them.

Different sports. Different ages. Different goals. Football. Volleyball. Golf. Tennis, track, wrestling, soccer, dance, baseball, the list goes on. And this is only a small piece of the athletes and clients I’ve been blessed to coach.

The common denominator is what we’re building.

Yes, we train hard. We get stronger, faster, more explosive and more durable. We compete. We laugh. We talk trash. We have fun.

But this has never been about just lifting weights and going home.

It’s about teaching athletes why we do what we do. Building confidence through competence. Holding them accountable. Challenging them when they need it. Meeting them where they are while refusing to let them stay there.

And most importantly, creating an environment where athletes genuinely enjoy showing up and putting in the work.

Coaching is more than what I do for a living. It’s what I love to do. There are few things that mean more to me than watching an athlete or client grow, not only in performance, but in confidence, discipline and belief in themselves.

I can tell parents and athletes all day what makes Next Level 360 Performance different.

But the proof was never supposed to come from me.

It’s in the athletes.

So… hear it from them. I know I’m missing a few, I got yall!

🚨Save for Later, Women’s Volleyball Full-Body Workout🚨
Build the base. Then express it.

This session with AK was simple by design: full-body strength + explosive intent.

SSB squats, step-ups and RDLs build lower-body strength through different positions and demands. Bench press, rotational single-arm rows and incline curls handled the upper body. Then we finished by taking that strength and asking her to express force quickly through loaded jumps, split jumps and static-start jumps.

Nothing fancy. Nothing random.

For a volleyball athlete, jumping higher matters but the foundation underneath the jump matters first. Strength gives us more force-producing capacity. Power is how quickly we can access it. And before we chase either at a high level, we need an athlete who owns positions, controls load and moves well.

This was a base-building session. Foundational work that gives us somewhere to build from.

Stability precedes strength. Strength precedes power.

Build the qualities. Then let the sport express them.

Two feet to create force. One leg to receive it. React off the ground. Finish on two.

The single-leg contact is the point of the drill. I want the athlete to absorb force, hold their position, and redirect that force into the next jump with a short amortization phase, the time between landing and taking off.

The goal isn’t just to get off the ground fast. It’s to get off the ground fast without losing control.

In season, a few high-quality reps let us keep training that ability to absorb and produce force while managing fatigue. When the contact gets slow or the landing breaks down, we’re done.

Force absorption before production. Intent over intensity.

There’s a part of coaching nobody prepares you for.

You start because you want to help people become better. Then, somewhere along the way, the people you’re pouring into start changing you too.

They remind you why you started. They challenge you to keep growing. They give purpose to days that otherwise might’ve felt heavy.

I may be the one with “Coach” in front of my name, but I’ve learned just as much as I’ve taught.

I was helping build them. Whole time, they were rebuilding parts of me they never knew were broken.

Sprinting is one of the highest-force, highest-velocity things we ask the human body to do.

That matters.

At high speeds, the nervous system has to recruit muscle quickly, the foot has to interact with the ground in fractions of a second, and the hamstrings, calves, tendons and connective tissues have to manage significant forces.

That’s why I look at sprinting as more than “speed work.” It’s an exposure the body needs to stay familiar with.

In-season programming is always a balancing act between stimulus, fatigue and recovery. The goal isn’t to see how much work an athlete can survive..it’s to provide enough of the right stimulus to maintain the qualities competition demands without interfering with performance.

Dose matters. Timing matters. Recovery matters.

After years of coaching, I’ve learned that sometimes the most effective programming isn’t adding more.

It’s knowing what you can’t afford to remove.

Speed is one of those things.

One thing coaching has taught me over the years is that age changes the conversation but it should never end it.

At some point, training stops being about what looks impressive and starts becoming about what allows you to keep showing up fully in your own life.

Can you still move with confidence?
Can you still respond when life asks something physical of you?
Can you still trust your body?

That matters to me.

I don’t want people afraid of effort just because they’re getting older. I want them educated enough to understand that the answer is rarely to do less…it’s to become more intentional with what you do.

Training should give you options.

More freedom. More confidence. More independence. More years where your body still feels like something you can rely on.

We don’t train to chase the past.

We train so the future doesn’t take more from us than it has to.

Getting older is part of life. Becoming less capable should never be the goal.
