Weight Room Wisdom: Lessons in Leadership from 99 Strength Coaches - Paperback

by Ron McKeefery (Author)

As Strength and Conditioning Coaches we all know that writing the workout is the easy part. Getting athletes to buy into the workout, the culture, and to you as a coach is what's hard. Through my years of coaching my favorite moments are those with the athletes before our after a lift, when we get the chance to talk with them about being a better human. Using stories to teach them life lessons that will help them to be the best athlete they can be, but more importantly lessons that will stick with them long after athletics. Stories that will inspire them to be the best version of themselves. Weight Room Wisdom is a collection of inspirational stories used by 99 of the top Strength and Conditioning Coaches in the world. A combination of metaphorical, experiential, and personal stories they have used to inspire their athletes for years. This book is for any coach that aspires to make an impact in their athletes life. Those that strive to break up the monotony of typical coaching cliches with skilled storytelling.
