share

STRONG Life Podcast ep. 201 with my man, Jesse Ackerman who is currently the Strength Coach for The Atlanta Falcons.

We had a GREAT chat about training (both the physical and mental aspects) as well as life.

Jesse shares his early history as a high school athlete and the powerful lessons he learned from those coaches and how it has shaped his philosophy today.

We also get into Jesse's vast experience coaching at a variety of colleges and how those experiences shaped his coaching philosophy today.

Here's just some of the topics we cover in this episode:

- What podcasts does Jesse listen to?

- What was life like growing up in Ohio, a hotbed for sports and sports performance.

- Thoughts on various Squats being used at the NFL level.

- Has more knowledge and training guys in the NFL made Jesse more conservative with his approach?

- Recommended Strength & Conditioning Books for Strength Coaches

- Speed Training, Running Technique & Med Ball Training for Speed

- 3 Day vs 4 Day Training Split

- How psychology effects training and life

- Plus much more!
