Something I wish I would've understood when I was younger: How much time coaches spend thinking about what's best for the team.

BUILD SOMEONE UP TODAY! The world already has enough people who “specialize” in tearing others down.

Before the workout - print last years marks. Have athletes compare themselves to THEMSELVES for the workout Sustained motivation comes from seeing your own progress. “There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.” -Ernest Hemmingway

If a 10–18 year old athlete came to me tomorrow and said: “I want my teammates to not recognize me in 12 months.” Faster. Stronger. More explosive. This is exactly what I would make them do. Save this. Use it. Change your career

As athletic development continues to evolve, Trainer's Companion aims to provide a framework closing the gap between data collection & actionable coaching decisions. It's a perfect addition to any library & pairs nicely with the Sprinter's Compendium. a.co/d/0cuCzGtV

More folks must be willing to share & truly pull back the curtain with honesty & humility. Also, the roadblocks that are hard to overcome
Had a conversation about Track coaching salaries. They said "$100k salary is probably equal to $75k 20 years ago." I went and looked, it's actually equal to $60k! Yet we still have schools offering $30-40k salaries. Criminal! YOU DESERVE MORE!

Francis dedicated his life to the development of athletics in Jamaica, helping to guide stars such as Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Asafa Powell and Shericka Jackson to multiple Olympic and world medals.
