James is an experienced Ace Fitness and Pre-Script\u2122 L1 Coach. He owns Byproduct Performance and currently runs Campus Recreation at Washburn University.   Killian and James talk about all things strength training as related to sport. On the table for discussion is a feast of coaching and programming concepts: emphasizing the importance of proper exercise selection to bridge the gap between strength and stability in an athlete\u2019s training; what it means to train skill versus adaptation; breadth of knowledge and skilled application of exercise; the importance of having an open mind accompanied by the ability to be critical when analyzing exercise methodology. Shallow makes a highlight of the concept of inoculation - often overlooked as an important concept to help break athletes out of their own mental limitations. The importance of breadth of perspective, critical thinking, and gathering experience before approaching a goal is highlighted throughout the episode -- in Killian\u2019s terms, \u201cstart with a full page and erase down from there\u201d. We finish off with a surprise turn to The 5 Love Languages, touching on the importance of communication and understanding of one\u2019s self in order to better understand those around you.    James\u2019s Media: IG: @thayer2513 Email: byproductPerformance@gmail.com Website: Byproductperformance.com   Killian\u2019s Media: IG: @killian.hamilton Website k2Coaching.ca For other strength training, health, and injury prevention resources, check out our website, YouTube channel, and Instagram.  For more episodes, subscribe and tune in to our podcast.
