In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I have the pleasure in speaking to Teacher & Coach at Parkway Central High School, Ryan Banta. Ryan has written extensively on sprinting, acceleration and plyometrics on various websites including elitetrack.com, just-fly-sports.com, speedendurance.com, scienceofrunning.com & simplifaster.com. But as well as being a writer, Ryan is coaching high school athletes daily as well as teaching in the same school. Moving away from the elite coaching space, I felt Ryan was a fantastic example to get on the podcast to showcase the great work that is going on on the youth amateur level.

In this episode, you will learn -
