Coach Glass Podcast

The Keto Diet is NOT ideal for competitive golfers! There, I said it! Now take your shots. “No way Jay! You don’t know what you are talking about! What about so and so and that athlete that won the so and so?” Everyone should use Intermittent Fasting 3 days a week! “What? Are you freaking kidding me? You miss breakfast and you will become a communist!” I believe clubbing baby seals will increase clubhead speed! “Whaaaaattttt????? Jay! YOU ARE A &%$#@…ohhh I see what you did there…” Nutrition is such a hot topic that people take so personally. Religion and politics have been replaced with what diet you are on. “I broke up with Suzy! Turned out she was eating carbs behind my back.” In this episode I go DEEP into the Keto and Intermittent Fasting fads and share why my athletes my use some of these tactics some of the time but switch it up come game time! Just listen. You can’t have an opinion if you haven’t heard the argument. Enjoy! “Hey hun! Can you order me a bulletproof vest from Amazon?” Go to http://k-

High Triplexity is a term I came up with to describe the style of training that I use to help my athletes perform at their maximal potential. I use to use the term High Threshold but the concept has evolved and become something much broader than a simple transition from Corrective Exercises to Strength and Power. The basic premise is that you can improve an athletes speed, movement efficiency and power outputs without using resistance. I use to take my athletes through a strength prep phase that was, as the name implies, a training period designed to prepare the body for the strength training in the next phase. What I was unaware of at the time was that my athletes were accomplishing the speed and power gains that they initially set forth to acquire before they even reached the strength phase. How is this possible? What we did was take the strength and speed that they already possessed and released it through movement based, multi plane, multi-segmental patterns that challenged the nervous system. Adding comp

Picture each stage of your life as a room that you enter. Each doorway is the transition from one stage of your life to the next. Be it the transition from high school to college, college to your career, single life to married life, or newlyweds to parents. The most important thing you can do when you pass through one of these doorways is to close the door behind you! If your married you can’t leave the door open behind you into the single life. When you enter the working world you need to close the door on the college frat life. I have seen far too many people fail to close the door behind them and the ramifications can be disastrous. To truly be present in the room or stage of life you have entered you need to have closure on the the past. This Week’s Task: First and foremost you need to acknowledge what stage of life you are currently living in. Then look back at your previous stage or room and make sure that you aren’t pulling habits, traits or other elements of life that no longer serve you in your curre

Doesn’t everyone love a GERD cup of coffee in the morning? Not if that coffee is causing GERD! Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease is no joke! In this episode we discuss GERD, the causes, the symptoms and the solution. I also share my experience with removing coffee from my diet for 14 days. WHAAAATTTTT! I know. @robertyang challenged me to 14 days without the black gold in my diet and I took that challenge face on. The idea was to reduce my GERD by removing the #1 culprit to my symptoms to see if they improve. To find out what happened… you need to listen to this week’s episode! If you want to take your training and results to the next level. If you want to benefit from working with me and a dedicated community of other athletes every week for 16 weeks.

How would I take an athlete from their first sprout to the Tour Championship? Well that is exactly (not exactly) what long time Glistener and PGA Coach, Jason Baile asked in this week’s #YOJAY! “ YOJAY! With your knowledge and experience... if you set out to create the best athlete you possibly could what pieces would you consider the most important from age 12 to 18? I think of this often from a skill standpoint but would love to hear your feedback given your area of expertise.” Basically, how do you train someone to go from Pubes to the Pros! I dove deep into the bushy depths of this topic in this week’s episode. Training the Pre/Post pubescent teenager, high school athlete, collegiate athlete and how we transition it into their pro career. Over the past 20 years I have worked as a performance coach to juniors, high school teams, college programs, Canadian National Team development, amateur and pro teams and finally my athletes in the pros. Each group has its own distinct training needs. require unique appr

There are certain guests that deliver such deep insight and tools that we can immediately implement into our lives to enhance our and our client’s performance that I have to go back and listen to the episode again and again with a notepad in hand. Dr. Emily Splichal @dremilydpm is one of these guests. This episode will create more than one of those light bulb "ahh ha" moments that triggers a pivotal shifts in your approach to performance and corrective coaching. It certainly did that for me! Barefoot Strong is a book that will have you questioning everything you have done up to this point in your coaching. I see a few refunds coming to clients that I thought I could help but later found that I was missing a key element. The foot is that element! After listening to this episode you will be sitting in your cubicle, car or empty gym doing foot shortening exercises wondering whether you are doing it right. If you or any of your clients need some advanced help please visit her website http://www.dremilysplichal.co

Intention is EVERYTHING! It sets the tone for your day, your workout, your nutritional choices, your sleep, your relationships and your business. Many of you don’t set intentions and let the day dictate your intentions for you! When you start a training session do you set an intention? "Yeah I want to lose 5lbs!" Thats a goal not an intention. An intention is I want to control my respirations throughout the session and be present during each rep. If this was your goal you would fail. Goals are black and white. Were you present for every exercises? "No, I was thinking about work for the last circuit.” Then yo failed at your goal! Was your intention for the session met? Yes! The fact you set it means you intended to be present which made you more present then you would have been if you had not set the intention. Now apply this to the rest of your life! Wanna set an intention for your personal growth, your success and maximize your potential? My 2018 Mentorship is for you and is being held Sept 12-14th 2018 at m

After Episode 235 there has been a ton of buzzzzz about speed training protocols. I thought what better way to continue the discussion than to have the 2 owners of SuperSpeedGolf.comm come on the show! Kyle Shay and Michael Napolean are 2 of the brightest minds when it comes to rotational speed training. Their speed products are revolutionizing the way we train our rotational athletes. The science developed in golf is now being applied to baseball, tennis, hockey and soon…wait for it….lacrosse! The guys at SuperSpeed were also very generous in offering any Glisteners who use the code “COACHGLASS” in the discount box at check out a 15% savings! Good guys great products!

This week I want you to look yourself in the mirror and see what others see. We all have greatness inside us. The people around you see it. I can see it! Why can’t you? This week a long time client of mine saw himself through the eyes of his closest friends, family and competitors. Andrew Putnam won his first PGATour event. Validation for all the handwork he has put into becoming the golfer he is today. We all knew he was one of the best in the world. But it was’t until he saw it in himself that he got his first win! I want this lesson to be your lesson. See in yourself what we all see in you. Attack the world with your greatness!

What is your arena and how do you prepare to dominate once you step up in the arena? The arena or filed of play is where you get to express your greatness. The problem is that most of you show up to the arena without properly preparing to play your best! This episode comes off the heels of last week’s trip to the @pgatour RBC Canadian Open where I was there helping my athletes prepare to play their best. The elements that the pros use to play there best can also be applied by the amateur athlete with incredible success. Listen to this week’s episode and step in the arena like a pro!

This is a topic I have been wanting to share with you for months now. I never recommend any training technique, exercise or performance enhancer without testing it first. I have been using CBD for the past 5 months and researching the benefits of this controversial wonder plant for over a year. THC’s nerdy healthy cousin reduces inflammation, relieves pain, enhances endurance, reduces anxiety, helps you sleep and reduces adipose tissue to name only a few of its amazing skills! How can one plant offer so many diverse benefits with little to no side effects? Maybe because its natural? I decided to experiment with CBD oil after meeting Steve Patterson from Functional Remedies who supports many pro golfers with his products. I then spoke with friend and colleague Victor Trasoff-Jilg from WAAYB who agreed to come on the show and share his passion for this amazing plant extract. Victor was also generous enough to provide amazing discounts on his products at http://waayb.com when you put "COACHGLASS” in the coupon s

I have to plan the travel strategies for my pro athletes. They have tight travel schedules that take them all around the globe and they need to perform at the highest level once the rubber hits the runway! Its no different than a business executive who lands in a foreign country and needs to ink the deal of the century! Wanna travel like a BOSS? Want to avoid wasting the first 2 days of your trip acclimatizing to your new time zone? Of course your answer is yes. We all try to cram in so much into our travel plans to ensure we optimize every second of the trip and we don’t miss a thing. Or even worse, just so you could squeeze in one more day abroad, you convinced yourself that you could work the day after you return. If you listen to this week’s podcast you will have all the tools you need to travel like a BOSS! Tips on what to do the day you depart, what to take on the plane, strategies for staying a wake or sleeping the entire flight, first thing you do when you arrive, and how to return home and hit the gr

Being vulnerable is viewed as being weak. Vulnerability is not a trait that our society values. I disagree! I think vulnerability show strength. If you are willing to open yourself up to failure and loss you are living. The opposite side of the coin is never showing vulnerability and living in a false world of impenetrable control. I always say that true learning can only occur when you are at the brink of failure. You never learn from playing it safe and driving the speed limit. Sometimes you need to let the back end slide out so you can learn how to steer into the slide and correct your course. I also believe in creating controlled and safe environments to experiment with your vulnerability. That is what this weeks task and #DreamBIG episode is all about. FYI: The #DreamBIG series is a quick motivational kick in the keister! The #DreamBIG episodes are 6-12 minute dream big segments that are bite sized and easy to digest. If you follow them from week to week you will have a game plan that will help you tackl

There are 2 camps. One says train with perfect form, stay in the sagittal, frontal and transverse plane and stay in control. The other camp says train in vulnerable positions so the athlete can handle it when they get stuck in those positions in their sport. Which camp do I pitch my tent in? As always I am somewhere in the middle. I feel the detrained or novice athlete needs to live in Camp 1 and graduate to Camp 2 once they earn the right. In this episode i go into these concepts and so much more. Both physical and mental aspects of training in vulnerability. Listen and learn!

My Daughter just graduated from high school and is off to college in the fall. It makes me reflect on her life and question whether I have provided her with the skills she will need to make it in today’s competitive world. Of course I did…right?

Stability, mobility, stability , mobility, strombiwidy? I get it, everyone needs more stability and more mobility. But what happens when you apply the wrong correction to the right problem? Or you go after the wrong problem and apply the right approach for that problem but don’t get the results your looking for?

Have you ever climbed the Great Wall of China? After this episode you will feel like you did! I just got home from Beijing China and had to share my experiences with my Glisteners. I share stories about my trip to the Great Wall, teaching @mytpi seminars with a translator, and what we can learn from the Chinese fitness culture. What is like telling jokes to people who don’t speak english? Same as telling my jokes to an english audience…silence. It is always eye opening to visit a country where you are the minority.

My mentors shaped my life. They help me grow and call bullshit on me when I am fooling myself. They lead by example and shine light on what is possible. As much as I have learnt form my mentors I have learned incredible lessons from those who I mentor. Dr. Mike Voight once told me “Instead of looking for the next peak to climb, why don’t you help someone else get to your peak!” That is why my yearly Coach Glass Mentorship is my favourite event of the year. An opportunity for me to help others climb to new peaks and maximize their potential. The quality of friendships I have made through the process of mentoring and being mentored cannot be measured. This episode is my way of saying thank you to some of the people who impacted me and helped me become the Coach I am today.
