March 26, 2024 Strategic Efforts and Sports Performance w/ Lee Taft
Welcome to the Influence to Perform podcast, where we engage in meaningful conversations and mentorship talks with top strength coaches, leaders, and professionals in their respective fields. Our guests have been carefully selected to inspire and empower you and those around you.
While many strength coaches may be caught up in following social media trends, some remain dedicated to honing their skills and achieving true success. These individuals have gone on to create impactful platforms that motivate and educate those who find themselves overwhelmed in the fast-paced world of bigger, faster, and stronger.
In this episode, we have the privilege of speaking with Lee Taft about the importance of adopting a revamped bottoms-up approach to training models when it comes to the development of young athletes. Lee shares insights on his certification, training methods, the role of AAU, mentorship, and strategic modeling. These valuable discussions aim to guide parents, athletes, and coaches toward a more effective and fulfilling path. We also delve into other invaluable gems that are highlighted throughout this episode.
