“The expert in anything was once a beginner”

The worst sin a coach can commit against their athlete: starting a beginner off on an experienced athlete program.

Power Athlete Block One Coach Carl Case joins John and Tex to discuss his coaching journey and how he applies the Bedrock training program to his high school athletes.

Bedrock is our foundational strength and conditioning program created to unleash unparalleled strength, speed, and power gains for athletes new to the barbell. Learn how to (and how not to) apply this program and common pitfalls coaches fall into when training beginners.
