If you came up in a Division 1 S&C setting, chances are you spent at least some time around football.

At Ball State, we have a team of 4-5 coaches who all worked with different sports – baseball, basketball, soccer, gymnastics, volleyball, you name it – but when football came in, it was all hands on deck.

And here’s the thing – football has arguably the strongest S&C culture of all the sports, but does that mean we should be dogmatic about how we think about S&C for the actual sport?

Does that mean we can’t evolve?

Or get better at how we prepare our athletes for sport?

I don’t think so…and I feel like today’s guest would agree!

Cam Josse is currently working with the Detroit Lions as an Assistant Strength and Conditioning coach. Prior to joining the lions he worked at Auburn, IU and DeFranco’s Strength.

And today, we’re going to challenge a lot of the old-school thoughts when it comes to football strength and conditioning!

Everything you do is just a fractal piece of organization of the entire system. So if you’re not ultimately training for what you do as an athlete, then your training could potentially be misguided.
