Coach Glass Podcast

Acquiring a new skill is one thing but mastery? What skill are you a true master of? Master chef, kung fu master, or a debate master? I know you practice often but to be a true master debater you need to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. I am a master coach, master at public speaking and master of my domain. Each of these skills took 20+ years of hard work and continually pushing myself to the brink of failure. What skill do you want to master? Are you willing to put in the time and dedication needed to be a true master? There are a ton of shortcuts and in this episode I share skills that I took short cuts on and quickly hit my ceiling of potential. Learn from my successes and failures. That is what this podcast is all about. Enjoy! Want to master your speaking skills or need guidance and mentorship to help you accomplish your DreamBIG, we have a group starting up this month.

So you want to be a professional public speaker? This is the podcast for you. Ohh you just want to be able to speak publicly without defecating in your trousers or throwing up on the front row of your audience? This podcast is for you. Im sorry, I miss heard you, you just want to be a better communicator and want to get a word in edgewise in your social circle? This podcast is for you. Being a world class presenter and holding court at a family dinner actually require the same fundamental skills. We have all been in seminars or conferences (remember those?) where the speaker was an industry leader on the topic but failed to deliver it in an entertaining manner. Or you were at a dinner party where a couple shared their story about their trip to New York, "No, no, no you tell this part honey. You tell it better." "Okay as long as you share the story about the subway guy!" "Okay Pumpkin Buns!" Come on people! Put some pizzazz in it. You have to learn the art of story telling. Even if you are presenting on the pr

Anything that is worth achieving requires sacrifice. It can be time, money, effort, security, or your sanity. The key is making the right goal and understanding the consequences and sacrifices it will take to acquire it. If you want to have a world class BBQ you need to marinate the meat first. Dry rub or vinegar based doesn't matter. It just needs the right ingredients for the right amount of time to get the desired outcome. Whiskey and wine aged in a barrel will yield the best results. Age them in your bathtub and you will have hobo hooch! So the environment matters. Once you test the outcome you need to make notes, adjust the recipe, time and setting and tweak the next batch. Life is the same. Anything you are passionate about requires the right ingredients, skill and time to marinate. Relationships, raising children, growing your business, mastering your golf game, sculpting you body or balancing your life, all take marinating to get it right. Problem is, nobody got time for dat! We want it now. "I want a

Hi, my name is Jason Glass and I go by the pronoun COACH! What does it mean to you to be called Coach? Everything. You cant give yourself the name Coach you have to earn it. Like George Costanza trying to give himself the nickname "T-Bone". It just wont s

What motivates you to get up each morning and do what you do? Something is driving you to push yourself out of bed. What is it? Do you even know? Motivation is a tricky subject. What motivates you is very personal and unique to you. Some of you have very clearly defined goals and each day you take focussed steps to acquire your goal. Some of you just do it because you are simply use to doing it and don't know any other way. A few of you have lost your way and no longer feel motivated to do anything. Is it in our DNA to be driven? Are some people just wired that way? I go through times when I am highly motivated and excited to get in the office each day. I also go through times where I feel lost and just going through the motions. Lucky for me I have been able to identify what drives me and how to get out of a rut if I happen to fall into one. For me its about purpose. If I have purpose I have motivation. In my Coach Glass Mentorship we explore through our lessons and assignments, each member's purpose and wha

Everyone wants more speed. I have lectured for over a decade on rotational power as it was the hot topic on the sport performance circuit. Now it is all about speed. These 2 topics are basically talking about the same thing. Where we focus the lens may change but it is still about hitting the ball farther. Kinematic sequencing, ground reaction force, rotational plyometrics, neuromuscular training or all out power. Pick your poison and then jump in the rabbit hole with both feet! In this episode I share my philosophy on speed training and the tools I use to activate the athlete and measure the speed they produce. I also debate the various training protocols that are quickly becoming the doctrine. The authors of these programs may not like what I have to say but if I can't stand on my soap box and put my 2 cents in...why do I have a microphone? All the protocols I share from each organization work. You can try them all and let me know which one works best for you! If you want to get in the speed game I have som

The Ying Yang of life states that with every positive there is a negative. If you want to achieve anything big, it will come with great sacrifice. I always talk about creating your DreamBIG. A dream so big that the thought of it coming true raises the hair on your arms. The question is...what are you willing to sacrifice to get it. There are countless stories of entrepreneurs who have a dream to be rich, famous and successful. Once they achieve this dream they are left lonely and unfulfilled. In their wake is divorce, isolation and broken relationships. Their sole focus was on the prize as they neglected to consider what it would take to get it. I find this phenomenon in the "GRIND" community. 'You have to get up at 4am and workout before the world wakes up. GRIND!!!'. Leaving your partner to wake up to an empty bed. 'You have to work 12 to 15 hour days. GRIND!!!' Leaving your family eating dinner every night without you. 'You have to cut people out of your life that are holding you back from achieving your g

Mental Health is one of the most important issues facing the human race today. Obesity, racism, violent crime, substance abuse and suicide can all be linked to mental health. Somehow all the aforementioned topics are open for conversation but mental health is still this topic we tend to shy away from. If anything, it should be THE topic as it is the source of all the other issues. Many people feel weak or ashamed to ask for help. I have always said that the strongest thing you can do is to acknowledge your weakness and work on them. In Canada we have Bell Lets Talk Day on Jan 26th to bring awareness to mental health. I think everyday is a Let's Talk Day. In this episode I share some thoughts on how to identify and reframe your life so that you can start the process of healing. Its like a workout for your soul!

We have talked extensively about off season training on this podcast. In this episode we go DEEP into what I think is the most important part of off season training. Coming out of it! You started the off season with clear goals and expectations. You focus on the recipe that will help you create the desired outcomes after you bake it in the gym for 6-8 weeks. The problem is, during the later part of your off season you forget what brought you to this recipe in the first place. You were hungry! Hungry for change. Many of you neglect to take the time to taste the results at the end of the off season. Without re-testing, how will you ever know if your recipe stands up to your performance palate standards? Some of you do re-test but moved the goal posts or change what you are measuring. I just got home from the @pgatour @theamexgolf where we got to do exactly that. Re-test to see the fruits of our labour. What was the result you ask? An average of 4 mph club head speed. Recipe is tasting pretty good. Now we go bac

Kumbayaaahhhhhh! Ommmmmm! Okay we just weeded out the non meditators. Now we can get into the Nitty Gritty! In this episode we go DEEEP into the seemingly endless different types of meditation. Each has their own unique feeling, flavour and technique. But in the end they all do the same thing. Bring you closer to being a better version of you. Shall we list the various styles of meditation shared in this episode? No? Well I already wrote them out, pressed "copy" and about to press "paste" so too bad....Enjoy! Breathing, Body Scan, Mindfulness, Meta-Love for Others, Mantra, Spiritual- Prayer, Visualization, Present Moment, TM- 20min x 2, Chakrah, Yoga, and Open Eye. These are just a few common ones and a couple I made up the name of because I didn't have time to look them up... you know...with all the meditating I am doing! Just assume the position, close your eyes and listen. Then share, rate and review! Thank you to our sponsors. @mytpi @perform_better Register for all your MyTPI classes here: http://www.myt

Adaptation occurs when you are at the brink of failure but find a way to succeed. This phenomenon occurs in physical training and mental development. You need to get uncomfortable. In strength training 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 any challenge that comes their way. Which camp do I pitch my tent in? I feel the detrained or novice athlete needs to live in Camp 1 where load and physiological stress illicit adaptation in the nervous system and musculo-tendon-ligamentus tissues. At some point you load just wont cut it or the benefits start to move away from the intended adaptation. Same can be said mentally. You need to get uncomfortable. In this episode I go into these concepts and so much more. Both physical and mental aspects of training in vulnerability. Listen and learn!

In this episode I want to look back at 2021 and see what lessons I have learnt that I would like to carry forward into 2022. This is a great exercise for you to try yourself! It is is like the opposite of a New Years Resolution, which by now you should know I hate. Instead of looking at what we don't want to do, we focus our energy on the positive elements we brought into our lives and carry them forward. It reminds me of my lawn care. I was told that to create a perfect lawn you should avoid using products that kill the weeds. If you focus more on making the grass healthy, the weeds will have nowhere to grow. If you focus on the positive elements in your life from 2021 and carry them forward you will limit the space for negative habits to appear in 2022. So what are the five things I will take from 2021 and incorporate them in my coming year? You will have to listen to learn!

"Did you see that exercise the Coach had on his Instagram?" Stop focussing on the exercise! Focus on the elements that make up the exercise. What are the physiological demands applied to the body during the movement? Are these the ingredients that will take your performance to the next level? Are you wanting strength, power, function???? Does this exercise accomplish the change you are looking for? "A lot of questions Jay and not a lot of answers!" The answers are in this episode! Ohh we also go DEEP into how to develop your Coach's Eye so you can accelerate your ability to refine your athlete's form and technique with 1 cue. 30min punch to the DOME! Enjoy it!

In today's fast paced, sound bite while walking out the door, world we live in, you make some huge presumption. We presume that we only need to know the quote, see the video or hear just the gist to create an opinion. It is an Instagram thread of stories and images fire hosed to the back of the dome each and every day! What is the back story? Nobody got time for that! What context was it created and what was the intention behind its creation? If you walked past the open door of my gym and saw 3 reps of 1 exercise that I was doing with a specific athlete with unique needs, could you make an opinion on me as a coach? Now that sounds ridiculous doesn't it? But you can make assumptions about my age, gender, education, social status and how I like my coffee by scrolling through my social media? I heard a great mathematical equation that explains the value of the things we consume. A Instagram post takes 1 to 3minutes to create and 1-30seconds to absorb. A blog post takes 5 hours to research and write and 15-30 min

Fitness pros! Have you ever had someone walk in your gym and say," I am looking for some mental fortitude, grit and self belief!"? I thought not. It is a complete opposite. "I want to lose 10lbs, get stronger and improve my overall health!" They say they want physiological change but the most valuable thing they can leave with is psychological growth. Many of them don't consciously realize the change that has taken place, and unfortunately neither do their trainers. Wake up people! Its not about the body. If you change the mind the body will follow. If you only change the body it will try to return to its original form as the mind seeks homeostasis. This is why the focus for this episode is on the psychological aspect of coaching. Some of you are great at this and don't know why, others think you are mental masters and massively miss the mark. There is an art to quality coaching communication skills that you can develop. It starts with an intention to improve your abilities to communicate and understanding ho

The classic golf coaching model is inherently broken. This episode is a working coaching model the modern golf professional. It will redefine the way they coach their athletes. The modern golf professional needs a different approach to coaching. The new model needs to provide the golfer with the tools to adjust and adapt to the ever changing environment, conditions and competitive situations that arise in a round of golf. It is not about fixing them. It is about empowering them to meet the challenge that is presented for each shot. Coaching is about giving the athlete the ingredients that expand the options available to them to overcome each challenge they are faced with. The more ingredients they have, the more creative they can be at executing them.
