In this weeks My Thoughts Monday I share my thoughts on this recent uptick in Twitter wars over coaches questioning some traditional “methods” when it comes to football. These recent battles are over the implementation and utilization of mat drills, 300 yard shuttles, and 110’s. In each of these, if there is a practical reason behind the why then I’m all for it. Where I do see a problem is the lack of communicating the why’s to these and it just being, as was said on Twitter “give us our game back.” It’s impossible for us to grow and evolve if we do not discuss our reasoning, look at research, and have conversations about those two to help us ALL make better decisions and help push ourselves forward. All these internet fights are doing, in reality, is holding us, as a profession, back and keeping us from having a seat at the table.

“When I really try to impose my idea of what it is to be right on them, big clash, but when I lower my level and I learn from them, or I coach with them vs. coaching them, I became so much better as a professional.”

What’s up everybody and welcome the 67th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by The Denver Nuggets Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach, Claus Souza. Claus, thanks for being with us today.

Before we start, who is Claus Souza?
I’m just a kid who grew up in Brazil who had a dream to work in sports.

1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Jujitsu and he realized to every issue in the weight room there’s always an answer.

2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
Why do people act violently or selfishly? What drives people to commit violent acts?

3) What’s your escape?
My resets are good coffee, a good steak, my girlfriend, and jujitsu.

“We don’t have to guard the weight room the whole day, you should spend time working yourself.”

“If we want a certain thing, we have to set ourselves up for success. So, if you want a certain guy to jump higher he needs to jump more. If you want a certain guy to shoot better he needs to shoot more. And trying to make it more complex than it actually needs to be is just setting everyone up for failure.”

In this week’s episode of The Podcast I get the opportunity to talk about taking care of ourselves off the court and using those lessons to connect with athletes, with ODU’s Eric Potter. After a quick run-down of how Eric got down to Norfolk we get into what financial literacy is to him, why it’s important, and how we both got into looking into this subject. This leads us into the discussion of being more time efficient and looking at doing better with the time we have and scheduling for what we really do, not just guarding the weight room. We finish off talking about how important it is to keep things simple and moving towards the specific goals of the moment both in training and in life.

As we progress through the college basketball season I have had the ability to look at how we are trying to continue to progress our training within this world of restrictions. In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share where the ideas for these plans came from, what they consist of, and why we are adding these “extra” sessions for our athletes.

Today we are joined by The Assistant Football Strength and Conditioning Coach at the University of South Carolina, Scott Salwasser. Scott, thanks for being with us today.

Before we start, who is Scott Salwasser?
Number one I’m a father of two beautiful daughters, after that I’m somebody who wants to help people get better.

1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
The first time was why I’m even in this business. After graduating college I stumbled upon AA running a workout at USC before I knew what S and C was.

2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?  
Where should I be? Five years from now, 10 years from now, what is the right choice?

3) What’s your escape?
First and foremost my two daughters, a second would be the river and fishing to just unplug, the third, being a California guy, would be the beach and surfing.
