Decoding Excellence

In this Cardio Talk edition of the Decoding Excellence Show, I hit on three big topics for strength & conditioning coaches:1️⃣ Building Trust with Sport Coaches — How we can better align with head coaches by speaking their language, framing data around outcomes, and respecting practice priorities.2️⃣ Rethinking Recovery in College Athletics — Why recovery is more than ice baths and Normatecs, and how sleep, stress, and academics all play a critical role in athlete performance.3️⃣ The Future of Tech in S&C — From VBT to wearables, I break down where technology is headed, what’s actually useful, and how to separate game-changers from distractions.This 45-minute ruck walk conversation is raw, unedited, and unscripted—just me, sharing what’s on my mind in the world of performance and coaching.
