STRONG Life Podcast ep 333

This is a throwback interview I did with Louie Simmons, back in 2008.

Back then, there were NO podcasts. I was using a landline to record these audio interviews for https://UndergroundStrengthCoach.com

This was done after Louie released his book, The Westside Barbell Book of Methods. I devoured that book in NO time and could NOT put it down.

Topics covered in this episode:

Special Strength Training for Track Athletes
Special Strength Training for MMA Fighters
Implementing GPP training for youth athletes, especially Football players

For years I've been hopping on the phone with Louie Simmons to talk training methods. He understands the role of a QUALIFIED Strength Coach training athletes vs an ex Football player becoming the Football Strength Coach and bringing to the table the "same old" training that "We always did it this way" which does NOT deliver elite results.

A Strength Coach requires an understanding of MUCH MORE than the game / sport itself.

The Strength Coach must realize his influence on the life of the athlete, understanding special strengths, understanding how to manipulate volume, intensity and individualizing workouts.... Plus MUCH more as we discuss in this interview with Louie Simmons.

Resources for Strength Coaches:

Listen as Louie talks about training for athletes, special strengths, his new book & much more.
