For long snapper @ChrisStoll18, itâs all about the repetition.
Tune in to The Specialists, out now on Seahawks YouTube.
Elite performance isnât built on effort alone.
Itâs built on aligned systems: nutrition for fuel, sleep for recovery, training for adaptation.
Stack them right and the results compound.

Average is the default. Excellence is earned. Commit to getting better, or youâll stay exactly where you are.
Voluntary private training is exactly that; VOLUNTARY. But the outcomes tied to it arenât.
Playing time and scholarships are scarce resources, and coaches allocate them to athletes who consistently show extra commitment.
Coaches always know whoâs putting in the extra work.

SHOCKING đš: A growing number of middle school athletes â mostly boys â are intentionally repeating 8th grade to delay their start in high school, giving themselves another full year to get bigger, stronger, and faster, which in turn dramatically boosts their chances at elite high school spots, college scholarships, and massive NIL deals potentially worth millions.
William La Jeunesse: âOf 8M high school students in sports only 7% will play in college.â
âšâOn the other hand, the [likely] number one pick in this yearâs NBA draft, [AJ Dybantsa], did 8th grade twice.â
CRAZY IDEA: How about we let more kids be kids!
Max strength and muscle arenât built by maxing out every session.âšSmart, submaximal training with smart volume beats constant heavy singles or failure. Sustainable gains come from percentages, not ego lifts. đȘ
But what you probably didnât know is that I also coach regular people through major transformations, just like these photos.
No elite genetics required. Just consistency, smart programming, accountability, and the right mindset.
Proper lifting for speed requires specific programming (e.g., heavy squats, power cleans, plyometrics) focused on rate of force development and horizontal power, not just general hypertrophy or bodybuilding routines.
Built-in variety prevents stagnation, allows recovery, and ensures steady gains in strength, power, and speed by rotating intensities and exercises while tracking personal records.
A 154 lb athlete at 8% body fat has ~142 lbs lean mass. Adding 11 lbs of fat increases total mass to 165 lbs (~14% body fat).
