Coach Glass Podcast

I use to like @bmarcello13 until he ambushed me and took over my podcast! In this episode the table is turned and it is Brandon Marcello asking the tough questions. Where did the concept of High Threshold Training come from? How do you train rotational athletes that don’t have the ability to impart force into the ground? Is there a heirachy or rules to the progression and regression in my training? How do I use technology? My thoughts on eccentric training devices? Plus we chat about why Brandon likes to bake and why I like to cook and what it says about our minds and how we approach training. By the way..my full LoadXplode follow along training program is included for a limited time in my Next Level monthly membership. Sign up and follow along on my 16 week Speed program for only $39/month! I know…insane!

If I had a dollar for overtime someone came in my gym wanting to hit the ball shorter I would be broke! Everyone, and I mean everyone wants to hit the ball farther, everyone wants more power. In this episode we go DEEP into the debate of strength vs speed training. I have dedicated my career to making rotational athletes load and explode. Developing training techniques and coaching philosophies to squeeze out another 5 yards is no easy task. Lucky for you, we have boiled down the science of rotational power and reduced it to one simple question. Do you need strength, speed or both? So many athletes think that simply getting stronger will create more power. So they set off to the gym with their pre workout shake and a handful of traditional strength exercises and wait for the squat rack and bench press to free up. “Mind if I work in a few sets?” Rarely does this approach actually yield more distance. The odd time that it does is often due to the fact that the gym goer is either detrained or lacks the adequate

The #DreamBIG series is a quick motivational kick in the keister! The #DreamBIG episodes are just the 4-10 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 tackle life at the highest level. A personal performance roadmap! In this episode we dive DEEP into what currency is driving you in your daily actions. So many of us assume that money is what we work for. You all say money isn’t everything but your actions tell me otherwise. We get caught up in the rat trap of make more, spend more, build more, acquire more. But when I ask you what really matters in life you tell me “Friends, family and freedom!” So why doesn’t your daily checklist reflect that drive for the currency of time, connections and freedom? Your homework this week? Take an hour out of your day to go somewhere special and reflect on what currency in your life REALLY matters and then build a checklist that reflects that currency. #DBODBU

In this episode we get the opportunity to pick the brain of the World’s longest hitter! Justin James @justinjamesgolf is the newly crowned 2017 World Drive Champion. What you might not know is that Justin is also a Strength & Conditioning Coach. This allows us to go DEEP into rotational power training and the secrets behind his success in one of the most raw expressions of rotary power, the @worldlongdrive Championships. We also discuss the process he uses to prepare mentally for such an event. As a professional baseball pitcher, Justin developed the ability to stay calm under pressure and execute when the game is on the line.

In this episode my mentor Liam Hennessy and I sit down in front of 60 Irish coaches and talk about the pillars of strength and conditioning. In the first part of this conversation we chat about his work with 3 time Major Champion Padraig Harrington and legendary coach Bob Torrance. We go deep and I mean DEEP into the values that make up great coaches and what you can do to define your systems, philosophy and coaching style to maximize your effectiveness as a coach. Other topics like following your gut, the more you know the simpler your coaching gets, social media and shock headlines in fitness, principles should guide the message and so much more. We also talk about how to be an old school coach with new school athletes and the perils of trying to be your athletes best friend. We also open up the floor for questions from the crowd after the Coach Glass Explosive Rotational Power Workshop at Setanta College in Ireland.

We all do it but do you really know what its doing for you? In this episode we go DEEP into Bodyweight Training. The ins and outs of training using nothing but your own body as a form of resistance. When you add resistance or stress to the body in the form of exercises your body has to adapt. Your body matches the stress applied to it. Continue to do the same exercises the same way for the same amount of reps and over time the training effect is lost and you normalize. The problem with bodyweight exercises is you can’t really add more weight unless you add external resistance which then moves you out of true bodyweight training. So you have to increase volume, intensity, time under tension. Wanna go deep on this concept? Well this is your episode!

If you think recovery from exercise involves simply taking the day off and sitting on the couch you need to listen to this! The things we do outside the gym can be just as important as the work you do in the gym. I am so tired of seeing the hashtag #NoDaysOff! More isn’t always better and in fact training too much will result in the exact opposite results you were training for. On your off day you can still be active, just avoid loading the muscle in a similar fashion to the loads you were applying during your training sessions. Off day activities can include, jogging, cycling, hiking, yoga, and hopefully GOLFING! Post workout recovery can be enhanced by taking BCAAs (Branch Chain Amino Acids) which are used to rebuild and replenish the muscle tissue to enhance recovery. Epsom salt baths are great for relaxing after a hard session. The salts convert to magnesium once they are absorbed by the skin promoting hydration of the muscle tissues and relaxing the nervous system to help you sleep. Follow the bath with

Mentorship is so important in the development of oneself. Finding a mentor who is willing to guide you through the challenges you face in your career, sport, relationships or personal growth can be a life changer! In this episode I draw some parallels from the teaching of Mr. Miyagi in the Karate Kid movie with your career and development of self. If you want to truly maximize your potential you need to live through the eyes of a trusted mentor. Daniel San thought he was the king of the castle back in his hometown. It wasn’t until he hit the streets of the Valley that he realized he was over his head and needed guidance. So many of us live in our business, surrounded by others who think the same, and we climb to the top of our circle. Its comfy! You need to put yourself in situations that make you feel scared, skin your knee and be vulnerable to truly grow. I have been hosting my Coach Glass Mentorship for the past 5 years. I take 10 attendees each year and help them take their brand, skill set, business and

In this episode we go DEEP into whether or not you should lift before your event or not. Should we go heavy or have a light dynamic warm up? Can we stimulate or activate the nervous system without adding a toxic load to the musculoskeletal system? What should we do to prepare our bodies for the best potential performance? This is coming off the heels of Brooks Koepka @BKoepka winning the US Open in golf. Since Brook’s historic win I have been hit with countless #YOJAYs, DMs, emails and FB Messages asking for my thoughts on an Instagram post from Brook’s great coach and friend of mine Claude Harmon III @CH3golf who had a picture of Brook’s strength coach Joey D @CoachJoeyD with Brooks lifting “heavy” bench press before he played his Sunday final round at the Open. The quote from the post was “For those who still don’t believe golfers are athletes, Sunday morning at a major” Why are people making this a a Joey D vs Coach Glass issue? I have publicly said that I don’t believe in the bench press and think strengt

Warning! This is not an official Coach Glass Podcast Episode. This is a MotiTation (MotiTation= Motivation + Meditation) This recording is to be listened to at the end of your training session. Lie on your back in the pool of sweat you created from your hardwork. Now find your breathe and relax. Press play and listen to the MotiTation. Its that simple. There are elements that may inspire you, challenge you, force you to look yourself in the mirror and motivate you to be your best! This Episode is about removing the tags that society puts on you and getting back to what makes you YOU! Listen to CGP Ep189 The Great Outdoors for more on this week’s MotiTation topic! Enjoy.
