High Intensity Strength Training Volume 3: Organization and Implementation

with Michael Bradley,
Florida State University Men's Basketball Strength and Conditioning Coach

In this DVD, Coach Bradley builds upon the philosophical details of high intensity strength training presented in Volume 1 and the training protocols presented in Volume 2 to present ideas and the "nuts and bolts" of how to implement a successful strength and condition program.

Supervision and motivation are the biggest factors in the success of a training program. Florida State basketball players are coached on every repetition of each exercise. In addition, Coach Bradley teaches the athletes the art of strength coaching and the science of strength training, so that they can further grasp expectations and apply it later in life.

It is the responsibility of the strength coach to create an environment that makes the players want to train. An effective coach addresses the mental component of strength training by having players in a positive state of mind as soon as they step in the weight room.

The driving factor behind all training at Florida State basketball is the tracking and recording of progression. This close monitoring ensures that the players are getting stronger each day. It also minimizes overtraining, allowing the players to adapt and grow stronger while preventing injuries and avoiding unnecessary extra fatigue.

Progression is not the only topic discussed in this video. Coach Bradley gives in depth analysis of the following topics:

• Intensity
• Effort
• Technique
• Program Organization
• Equipment
• The Art of Strength Coaching

For any team needing a stellar set up for their strength training program this DVD is guaranteed to give you the foundation necessary for success.
