Eric Klein on the Real World of University Strength Coaches – The Barbell Life 197

We’ve talked with Eric Klein previously on our podcast, and it was one of our most popular episodes ever. This one was just as great.

Coach Klein has recently moved to the University of Connecticut to be the Football Strength and Conditioning Coach. So we get into what the industry is really like for strength coaches, his approach to getting athletes strong, and how he goes about getting buy-in from the athletes and staff that he now has to establish relationships with.

Even if you’re not a strength coach, this one still has some awesome nuggets of wisdom from Coach Klein – he explains in the simplest ways why mobility and strength matter to any sport… and how you can maximize them.
