In my experience, I have found that many parents don’t actually know what a strength & conditioning coach does. So, let me share some thoughts.

S&C isn’t just about lifting weights, it’s about preparing athletes to dominate their sport, recover faster, and stay healthy.

💥 Speed.
💥 Power.
💥 Durability.

That’s what we build at Finish First.

Any “a-ah” moments?

Let me know in the comments. —Coach Hoy

Pressure doesn’t create greatness, it reveals it.

When the lights are on and the stakes are high, athletes don’t magically perform better…they perform exactly how they’ve trained.

That’s why every rep, every drill, and every detail matters.

We don’t “hope” our athletes rise to the moment.

We prepare them for it.

Question (parents and/or athletes): When pressure hits, do you rise or fall?

Parents: not every exercise needs to look flashy on Instagram to be effective. Some of the most powerful training tools are simple and overlooked.

✅ Depth Drops → Teach athletes to absorb force safely, protect joints, and build “ankle stiffness” (so every step wastes less energy).
✅ Depth Jumps → Build reactivity and explosiveness that carry directly to acceleration and top speed.

We’ve been using these with athletes for 25+ years and they’re foundational for building speed, reducing non-contact injuries, and making athletes more durable.

💡 They may not go viral… but you know what does? Being fast, explosive, and resilient.

📩 DM us or stop in to make sure your athlete is doing them correctly.
📌 Save this post so your athlete can add them to their routine.
