The Smart Coaching Series on the Coach and Coordinator Podcast is designed to help coaches improve over the course of the season in the areas outside of the X&O’s. Coaches need to be able to take care of people and this podcast will give pause for reflection and well as generate ideas for the coach to be smart about how he improves his players and team.

This episode of the podcast takes a deeper look into strength and

conditioning especially during the season. The different styles of training that can work in season, and the importance of monitoring the workload incorporated throughout the year. Gearity and Kuklick express how having a plan to follow helps optimize the most of those opportunities to stay safe and healthy.
