How do I get Football fast?
The question Iāve been asked a lot over recent years!
So it was my pleasure to share my ideas on the top at this years national conference.
Itās no secret that I love playing and being apart of American football.
The passion and dedication that the British coaches have is admirable to which all are volunteers. This makes it extra special when you are in front of a room full of technical coaches and not speed junkies.
So I came ready to rock! Challenge, ask questions and give as much as I could in the 60mins I had.
Speaking for me is a passion. I love it and in these situations I see it as my responsibility to move the needle.
Not with ādo this and do thatā but closing the gap between what people do well and how they can use it to help their athletes.
Big thanks to British American Football Association for letting me rock the mic!
A massive thank you to those who came to my slot and asked questions.
I hope I helped you.

Iām unapologetic when I say this. Something the British culture might not like. But here it is.
Iām a winner.
I find a way to win.
I find a way to improve and I find away to come out on top.
At the moment in my life Iām trying to redefine a few things.
First of all Iām publishing a book. The identity of a dyslexic kid who had to take āspecial needs classesā is whole life is literally being rewritten.
Secondly Iām hosting a massive industry shifting event in august and itās really hard. Iām finding it hard. And in that Iām realising that Iām ahead of the curve and the gap between myself and the S&C space is getting bigger and bigger.
SO IM GOING TO DRAG IT WITH ME!!!
Lastly moving into sole business owner with multiple staff and verticals (some I canāt wait to share with you) that improve our industry. IS REALLY HARD!
And thenā¦Iām rehabbing this knee and hamstring!
But I am a winner!
I do find a way.
Why because I donāt judge myself on my results.
I judge myself on my intention.
So I always win. Because Iām not playing the game others play.
So just a reminder to you and myself that intention breeds superior confidence and you must double and triple down on it when ālifeās hardā.
Because when itās all said and done. We donāt want the result. We want the journey.
Winning a game is better than having just won a game. Why? Because the winning is over.

We were in a cold gym in london.
Alex on the treatment table getting prepped for a session.
The conversation always lead to us talking about life and our futures.
Its crazy now to think that literally MOST OF WHAT WE SPOKE OF CAME TRUE.
Even the real tough stuff as there has been some challenges along the way.
But for me I always go back to those times when two blokes who both at the same time and I was telling Emma over breakfast.
Who had something to prove and needed someone to help them do it and believe in the things normal people donāt.
But most of all believe in each other.
Why I respect Alex so much is that when he says heās going to do something he does it.

HOW TO USE LOAD IN SPEED TRAINING!
Hit a few squats, do a few wall drills and then run fast with sleds.
In short, the common poorly constructed speed training program.
To build real speed YOU HAVE TO GO DEEP!!!
You have to understand motor learning and conjugated training.
Itās so important.
Why?
Because you must create variation and sequencing to your program.
This allows adaptation to take place but also be nurtured.
Drills and movements without overload are STILL LOAD BARING!
This can be a silent killer for a program. As lots of athletes arenāt adapted to the density of this type of work.
Therefore DRILLS WITH LOAD exponentially increase the cost of the training stimulus.
So use this template wisely and use it well!

Itās finally got meā¦.itās that time!
Yesterday I sat up and tried to get my self out of bed, dug my heel in and WHAM!
Shooting pain up the back of my leg, behind the knee.
And it hit me.
Iām human and right now Iām broken!
This was just before I had to go to the gym to do my rehab session.
I hurt like f*%k.
I was flying high and optimistic and honestly progressing really well.
But the injury is a nasty one. You hamstring isnāt designed to go in the way mine did. I wish i blew it out running. Thatās an easy fix.
Then it happened, the first dip in the road, disappointment and anger as to how I canāt do what I want.
A familiar feeling but the one that I dread the most in rehab.
When the dust settles and you realise again. The road ahead.
I went straight to my go to!
Face how I feel and hit the basics to keep the body moving forward.
And my mind.
In order to play the long game.
This is a reminder to myself.
Stay on plan and play the long game!
