Last Wednesday, Calvert High School in Prince Frederick, Maryland returned to strength and conditioning within COVID-19 protocols. Their director of strength and performance, Rick Sneade, speaks about his initial reactions, lessons learned and the preparation that made it possible.
Sneade believes in the power of transformational coaching instead of the smaller-picture, transactional mindset, and it has been a guiding principle through this period of reset and uncertainty. His staff stays ready so they don't have to get ready, and strives to treasure each day as a chance to help their athletes become uncommonly great.
