Erik Hansen from Cate school Rams located in Carpintaria, California. Coach Hansen is in a little bit different situation than most high school strength coaches since he works at a prep school , is the swimming coach, and lives on campus too. Cate school is a top 50 school in the nation for prep schools and focuses on academics for their students but with coach Hansen and the other sport coaches there, they have a great athletic program as well. They may have a small school population but they excel in their sports and extracurricular activities too.
In 2014 Hansen had the privilege of renovating the Harcourt Fitness Center to accommodate team practices. The first team to participate in the program was the girls’ volleyball, the second was football. Girl’s volleyball won a CIF title that year and, for the first time in Cate’s history, the football team did not lose any practice time in the pre-season due to injury and went on to be ranked first in the state. Prior to being the head strength and conditioning coach at Cate School, Hansen was the Director of Strength and Conditioning at Buenaventura Swim Club, assisting many swimmers to the division one level, the strength and conditioning coach for the Boys’ Varsity Basketball Team at Santa Barbara High School and a volunteer assistant for UCSB’s strength and conditioning program from 2006-2008 where he worked with men and women’s soccer, men and women’s volleyball, softball, men’s baseball, men’s and women’s swimming and track and field. He is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) from the National Strength and Conditioning Association, a Performance Enhancement Specialist (PES) from the National Academy of Sports Medicine and has his Master’s in Physical Education from Azusa Pacific University.

Tony stewart from North Scott high school in Iowa. Coach stewart has been coaching for while now and knows how to get that energy and drive out of his athletes to do big things. He really takes it slow when he starts to train 6-8th graders to ensure success later on. He also has a great program he uses when they first enter into Lancer strength. He also gives some great tips and techniques on how to test athletes without having to use expensive tech like Omega Wave. Coach Stewart has an awesome program and its about to get even aweseomer, yes aweseomer.. because we talk about his new strength facility that is currently being built that he had a major part in when it came down to the blueprints. Lots of cool stuff to talk to coach Stewart about. Some great takeaways for sure!

Cal Dietz, Jeff Nichols, Brandon Lilly, Ron Mckeefery, Adam Nelson, Aaron Ausmus and Daniel McKim talk about training the high school athlete. What exercises should they be doing, what should they be competent at when entering college, what are mobility drills to perform, how to fix the deadlift, bench, and squat and many more. I got some pretty great answers and every coach had differing opinions on training which is always good so that you can gain a new perspective on training. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think of it.

Coach Brian Lutter from Johnston High school located in Johnston Iowa talks Dragon Strength & Conditioning. Coach Lutter has been with Johnston high for 11 years now and has really built the strength program to what it is today. The program has come a long way and it shows in the athletes there. Every athlete is getting better and improving athletic performance while decreasing injuries. Coach Lutter takes nothing for granted and just wants to train athletes and just do something to get them better everyday. He also has great relationships with the sport coaches he works with and is able to get help from them when training the athletes during the school year or even during the summer sessions. And this is one aspect as to why the program is such a success.
Besides being the director of strength and conditioning for all dragon athletes, he is also an assistant varsity football coach and physical education teacher. He has also coached varsity wrestling and varsity girls track.
Brian received his Bachelor's Degree in Health and Human Performance from Iowa State University where he was also a member of the Cyclone Football team. He is a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist with the National Strength & Conditioning Association and holds a Master’s of Science Degree in Education from Drake University.
Brian is also competitive powerlifter and a member of the 22nd Street Barbell powerlifting team. So he not only talks the talk of strength and conditioning he walks it too. Brian Lutter has a ton of info and knowledge to share and I think there is something that you will be able to takeaway from this episode. Thank you Coach Lutter for your time!

Coach Kyle Keese from Denton Guyer High school located in Denton Texas trains the Wildcasts to get better everyday. If you know anything about the combination of Texas and football then you know that it is big business and this also includes the strength and conditioning programs there too. At Denton Guyer they take this very seriously and have had great success in the 10 years they have been open as a high school. Coach Keese has done a great job of getting all athletes involved and also keeping them highly motivated with goal setting for each player and building those personal relationships. Coach Keese is going to talk about some agility and movement drills called GRID and it is something that I think would be great to add to any athletic program. And notice how I said athletic program, because this really applies to all athletes and all sports. Kids need more movement these days and coach Keese has a great solution for it.
Coach Keese holds a BS in exercise and sports studies from Tarleton State university where he played football as well. He Coached at Crownover middle school which is a feeder school for Guyer and then moved to the high school the following year. In previous years he has also coached linebackers along with his duties as a strength coach. He holds his CSCS certification as well as his RSCC, and is also level 1 certified sports performance coach for USA weightlifting.
