Shane Rye is a Vice-President and Co-Founder of Cressey Sports Performance – Florida. Prior to joining the CSP team, he co-founded Athletic Development Performance, a Jupiter-based sports performance facility.

In this show, Shane and I talk a ton about lacrosse training – specifically, the qualities it takes to be successful, the mistakes he’s made training lacrosse players, and why we’re seeing such massive growth in the game.

Here's a brief overview of what we covered in this show:

* How Shane got started in the world of physical preparation

* An overview of lacrosse, and what specific skills or traits are necessary to be successful.

* Why we're seeing massive growth in the game of lacrosse across the United States.

* If Shane could build the perfect lacrosse player, what skills or traits would he have?

* His overarching training philosophy when it comes to developing young lacrosse players.

* Conditioning is a huge component of lacrosse, so how does Shane go about developing the aerobic engine necessary to be successful? We discuss.

* What the "strength" section looks like of his training programs, and areas you need to look at and address.

* The advice Shane would give to a young coach who wants to get started training lacrosse players.

* The BIG Question.

* Our always engaging lightning round, where we discuss his partnership with Eric Cressey (and I dig for some dirt!), the books he's reading right now, his favorite movie of all time, and the mixing of baseball and lacrosse culture at CSP.
