James LaValle, Mike Potenza and I sought to create a learning environment that we simply didn’t see anywhere else in the industry.

We wanted to show practitioners how different components of a comprehensive health and performance plan can be integrated to deliver optimal results.

Program design and delivery, sports science, and nutrition/supplementation shouldn’t live in their own silos. They should be orchestrated together to identify the athletes’ primary limiting factor to success and to help find the best possible solution.

A more diverse knowledge base and skill set allows you to help more people, and deliver better results, faster.

Mike Potenza (San Jose Sharks) recently shared an article on 3 powerful strategies he’s used to successfully return his players from injury.

Unfortunately, it’s still extremely common for athletes to be told to rest for several weeks until the injury “heals”, and then receive a green light to fully return to sport.

While time may allow for the injury to heal, the inactivity associated with rest will cause the athlete to significantly detrain.

Just as we wouldn’t recommend that an athlete sits on the couch all off-season and then transitions into competition, the recommendation of simply resting sets the athlete up for failure.

Simply, the athlete returns slower, weaker, and with less endurance.

The methods and progressions Mike outlines have been key to his success in helping his athletes, not just return to sport, but return to the same level of elite performance they achieved prior to the injury. 

The goal is never to just have the athlete in the line-up; the goal is to have the athlete prepared to make an impact.

And while Mike has spent the last 14 years working in the NHL, the methods he discusses apply to athletes in all sports, including “tactical” athletes.

In the article, Mike discusses:

  1. An often overlooked, but extremely effective method for preserving and developing muscle mass around an injured area
  2. An essential strategy to develop and guide program design and motivate the athlete throughout the reconditioning process
  3. How to “program” sport participation as part of the rehabilitation process to allow the athlete to make an immediate impact upon returning

On Friday, Eric Cressey published an article I wrote on the biggest mistake people make when designing training programs.

With Halloween in the middle of the week, and articles (like the one I’m sharing today) going up late in the week, Mike, James, and I wanted to make sure you didn’t miss an opportunity to save some loot.

The Biggest Mistake in Program Design

This article shares the largest driving factors in the evolution of how I’ve designed training programs over the last 10 years.

Specifically, there was one question that completely changed how I look at program design.

Designing maximally effective training programs involves more than just picking “good” exercises.

The best prescription starts with an accurate diagnosis.

When I changed how I was analyzing testing data, it became clear that I needed to change how I designed programs.

Today I’m excited to share another guest article from Mike Potenza, which he wrote for Mike Robertson’s site this week.

How athletes address their in-season training can have a profound impact on their speed, power, strength, and overall energy throughout the season.

This is particularly important as a failed in-season plan will lead to maximal detraining late in the season, when athletes are expected to perform at their best.

In this article, Mike shares:

  • The challenges he faced when designing programs in the NHL compared to college
  • The physical and mental harm caused by a “maintenance” mentality
  • A simple chart to better understand how often you need to train certain qualities
  • The importance of having a system for tracking workload and training progress

This is a quick read, but has a lot of important information. Check it out at the link below!
