In this episode of the Sprint Base Football Podcast presented by Titans Sensors, host Tony Holler speaks with Pedro Arruza, head coach at Randolph-Macon College, about adopting sprint-based football principles. Arruza discusses how the pandemic led to a shift toward low-volume, high-impact practices that prioritize player health and performance. They explore the challenges of changing traditional coaching mindsets, the importance of injury prevention, and strategies for building a positive team culture that attracts recruits. Arruza highlights the need for player responsibility and a fun, competitive training environment. The conversation also covers mental and physical health, effective communication, innovative practice methods, sprint training, recovery, and the role of sleep and mental health in performance.
