  • Ep #12 - Michael Boyle
    In this episode of Speed Talks with Les Spellman, I sit down with Michael Boyle to discuss his methodology when it comes to testing. With combine season coming up soon, I thought it'd be a good time to bring on an expert with over 30+ years of training athletes for the combine.

Prior to co-founding MBSC, Mike served as the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach at Boston University for 15 years. He also served as the Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Boston Bruins from 1991-1999, the US Women’s Olympic Ice Hockey Team (Gold in 1998, Silver in 2014, Gold in 2018), and for the World Champion Boston Red Sox.
