Coach has a Question…..do you have an answer?
At some point in the season, your head coach will come to you with a performance-related question. The question could be regarding an individual or the team. When this moment happens, will you response with “your opinion” or will you have the “facts” to answer their question? Your answer may very well decide what type of impact you have on the program. What kind of impact do you want to make?

Benefits of Sports Psychology in Athletics
Sports Psychology has multiple benefits toward athletic performance and mental fortitude. With a collective amount of resources, as well as a dialed in approach toward each individual athlete's intrinsic process, I believe we are able to achieve improved athletic performance while increasing the likelihood of those athletes becoming better all-around humans outside of sport.

A History of Learning
We started Hammer Strength Clinics over 30 years ago so that the coaching
community could share training philosophies and learn from each other.
The first clinic was held in Cincinnati, the birthplace of Hammer Strength. In 1992,
strength and conditioning coaches were finding their footing in professional and
college athletics. Strength and conditioning professionals are now an essential part of
athletic programs at any level and in personal training facilities.
