For Coaches

A program build, in five parts.

Most coaches are running a program they inherited, or one they stitched together on a Sunday night. You don't need a bigger budget to fix that. You need the plan written correctly and somebody to check your work while you run it.

  1. 01

    The annual plan

    Your full calendar laid out in phases, off-season through in-season, built around your competition schedule instead of a generic twelve-week block somebody sold you. I work backwards from the dates that matter to you.

    What your staff can do with it · Your staff can see what any given week is for without asking you.

  2. 02

    Setting the zones

    How to test, when to test, and what every percentage resolves to for each athlete on your roster. This is the piece most programs skip, and it's the reason their loads drift into guesswork by the second phase.

    What your staff can do with it · Nobody on your floor is estimating what heavy means for a given kid.

  3. 03

    Speed work

    The sprint and change-of-direction plan written into the week, with the progressions and the volume caps in place. Not bolted onto the end of a lift on the days somebody remembers.

    What your staff can do with it · Your speed work stops competing with your lifting for the same tired legs.

  4. 04

    The standards around it

    Warm-up, prehab, and testing days written out in full, so the parts that keep athletes available are scheduled rather than improvised by whoever has the group that day.

    What your staff can do with it · Your staff can run the whole session without calling anyone.

  5. 05

    A monthly check-in

    A call every month while you're running it. Programs meet reality somewhere around week three: a kid gets hurt, the schedule moves, a phase isn't taking. That's when a coach needs somebody to think with, not a document to re-read.

    What your staff can do with it · You get to change something mid-season with a second set of eyes on it.

Roster size, how many sports, how much of the year you want covered, and how much your staff can run without me. Those change the job enough that a number posted on a website would be wrong for almost everybody reading it. Tell me what you're running now and I'll tell you what it takes, including when the answer is that you don't need me.

Every build is scoped before it's priced.

The Rest of the Work

01

Performance Program Consulting

Build or audit a performance system: periodization models, testing and KPI frameworks, return-to-play and load-management protocols, and the sport-science stack to run them (Catapult, force plates, NordBord, Vald, VBT, timing gates). Principle-first systems your staff can actually operate.

02

Speaking & Education

Talks and clinics on principle-based programming, quarterback development, and keeping athletes on the field. Real coaching truth from inside the profession, not a motivational keynote.

03

Weight-Room Design & Outfitting

Years of rack designs, layouts, footprints, sourcing-to-budget, and color-matching, including multi-million-dollar collegiate room builds. From a single high-school platform to a full facility, designed by somebody who coaches in these rooms every day rather than a catalog rep.
