2024 National Strength Coach of the Year
According to Clemson FB teams sleep data per player. An increase of 30-55 minutes of sleep per day will increase 40 yard dash speed and big play potential! VITAL INFO FOR ALL SPORTS NOT JUST FB! Train + Eat + Sleep + Consistency = SUCCESS! RECOVER is as IMPORTANT as U WORK.
THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE HONOR. I can’t explain how this feels but I will say thank you to the

No the weightroom is not under construction 🤦🏻♂️. LOVE being at a school with such tremendous kids, coaches, admin, and FRIENDS. No place like it…and yes I’m now 40. 😂.

The calm before the storm!Also if you walk in YOUR weightroom&it’s not setup or put away by the standards,then that’s a you problem that speaks louder then just leaving a plate out.Players, coaches, anyone: attention to detail in all aspects of EVERYTHING.

Progress….💪👍. Also great job at workouts today, it’s not about having just a great June, in my opinion it’s having a great July, August, September, October, Nov. …..you get it. Be consistent, be year round, be a GREAT TEAMMATE!
3 YEARS APART. OVER 1200 kids per week, practically year round. Teach them to take pride in THEIR facilities and it will last! It takes a culture! Cleanup is the same after every session. No change in expectations.
We are excited to announce our 2023 Regional Coach of the Year winners! We congratulate these coaches for this recognition and thank them for being passionate about the HS S&C profession
THANKS TO PENN ADMINISTRATION, ATHLETICS, THE WHOLE COMMUNITY, EXERCISE SOLUTIONS & CHAD BOTHUN FOR providing the Penn Students with a weightroom they can have great pride in and a relentless pursuit of excellence in everyday!!!

1st thought extremely sad about announcement...BUT the thought that I can’t stop coming back too is how proud I am of the seniors and how honored I am to have been around such a great group of young men and women. The school year is not over,
Thursday am fly ins. Wickets and Freelap 10yard times. Full speed warmup, over 200 athletes all in 35 minutes. Yes, plenty of rest time in between the timed runs. Thanks to the coaches for all the help and the athletes for their focus and leadership! Every Thursday, COMPETE!
YES!!! So proud of these girls. Oh my! Hard work and dedication!
