CVASPS The Podcast

“Learning situations to me are every time I realize I don’t know shit.”

What’s up everybody and welcome the 64th 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 Performance Trainer at AFC Ajax and 3x3 Dutch Men’s National Basketball Team, Yoeri Pegel. Yoeri, thanks for being with us today.

Before we start, who is Yoeri Pegel?
A performance trainer working in basketball and soccer, but have worked in fighting as well.

1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Investing in what made him want to get up in the morning, and moving from the business world into training athletes.

2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?  
How do I ask better questions?

3) What’s your escape?
Playing sports is the best way for me to escape because I have to be in the moment and I have fun doing it.

This week I have the absolute pleasure to sit down and discuss speed development with Dr. Ken Clark. After a quick rundown of how he got up to West Chester we get right into discussing speed. We discuss how it’s become more “en vogue” of late, and bridge being connected between research and training. Dr. Clark then shares with us how they bring the research to the track and how the answer to how to connect the practical with the research tends to be, keep it simple. This leads us right into the horizontal vs vertical forces when it comes to speed, and how at the end of the day the answer is some place in the middle. He then discusses top end speed, its role in training, and where it can be utilized in sports that don’t sprint or have time to hit Max V can still benefit from hitting high speeds in training. We finish off discussing the future of research, and how the next step is involving teams and higher-level athletes. Dr. Clark puts out some great info on twitter and Instagram at @kenclarkspeed and his website kenclarkspeed.com so make sure to check those out!

Fear is a real thing that drives people to decisions daily. We, as people, all to often are afraid of what others think. In this weeks My Thoughts Monday we join Candice Walls on her second Walk With Walls and hear how she has recently looked fear in the eye and took a huge professional step. This is one that she knew, in her gut, was the right move, and a great example to all of us as to how we really need to trust our gut and do what’s best for us, even in this crazy year we are rolling through.

“The more that I feel like I’ve learned the more I realize I’m clueless.”

What’s up everybody and welcome the 63rd 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 Mississippi State University’s Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach, Aaron Duvall. Aaron, thanks for being with us today.

Before we start, who is Aaron Duvall?
Personally I am a below average weight lifter, and a pretty laid back guy.

1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
The first one was summer working with a new team and communicating with the sport coaches to understand what’s going on. The second is with our internship program and utilizing different programs across campus within it.

2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?  
The first, progressional, is “what else are we missing that could really help us give our athletes the tools necessary to be the best they can be?”
The second, personally, is “what else is really out there?”

3) What’s your escape?
My big one, yearly, is to go snow boarding.
