Getting faster isn't just about running harder. It's about training smarter — with the right mechanics, strength, and mental focus to support it. And avoiding injury? That's just as strategic.

In today's episode, I sat down with Coach Stacey Iliff to break down how athletes can run faster, cut sharper, and stay healthy while doing it. From biomechanics to mental performance, we cover the full picture. Stacey brings not only her credentials in Strength & Conditioning, Exercise Physiology, and functional movement — but also her personal journey as a former D1 soccer player and gym owner.

Together, we talk through: ✔️ Why most athletes run with faulty mechanics ✔️ How to train true speed and multi-directional agility ✔️ The link between strength, reaction time, and injury prevention ✔️ Why training your mind is just as important as training your body

Whether you're coaching athletes or training to be one — this episode is packed with insights to help you train harder, move better, and stay in the game longer.
