  • VBT and Technology: When to use velocity-based training and when simpler approaches work better
  • Microdosing vs. Macrodosing: Why the pendulum has swung too far and when to actually load athletes hard
  • Game Speed vs. Training Speed: The drag racer vs. Fast & Furious analogy that perfectly explains athletic development
  • The Four P's Framework: Evaluating jobs based on Pay, Personal Life, Progression, and Purpose—and why Justin left Division 1 football
