In this candid chat with Colton Razo from Ohio State University, we dive deep into the strength and conditioning profession. Coach Razo shares invaluable advice for young coaches on networking professionally (using LinkedIn and respectful outreach) and discusses the unexpected administrative challenges of a full-time role, including their successful experience with writing grants. We also cover their systematic approach to track and field workout design, the use of Velocity-Based Training (VBT) devices for program evaluation, and a coaching philosophy that prioritizes internal feedback over filming. Plus, get their top book recommendation, Science and Practice of Strength Training by Mel Siff.
