Episode 19: This one is special! In this episode, I (@les7spellman) talk with one of my coaching mentors, Dan Pfaff (@Pfaffsc). Dan is one of the top coaches in speed development, and training Olympic/Professional athletes including Donovan Bailey, Christian McCaffrey, Greg Rutherford, and hundreds more.
We discuss his philosophy on resistance training, early acceleration, physical & technical attributes, proximal cueing with max velocity, and more.
One note: this podcast was originally recorded in 2022, so there are some details pertaining to that time period.
