ANTHONY ADAMS - S&C COACH @ TCU #148

from PA CHALK UP · host Manny Silveira

We sit down with Anthony Adams — sports performance coach in Fort Worth, former TCU baseball and women's tennis coach, and one of the sharper young minds in the field — to talk about motor learning, why axial loading might be working against your rotational athletes, and how he sequences every session from fast to slow.In this Playbook:Stop Giving Athletes the Answer: If you always tell them where to go, they'll never figure it out themselves. Anthony breaks down what a real learning environment looks like — and why errors are the point.Your Spine Moves. Train It That Way: Hip-shoulder separation isn't just twisting. It's flexion, lateral flex, and rotation — and if all you do is heavy axial load, you're literally training against your rotational athletes.Fast to Slow, Always: Skill. Speed. Power. Strength. Accessories. In that order, every time. Anthony explains why the nervous system demands it — and what happens when you flip it.TeamBuildr⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠:Coaches, revolutionise your training programs with their cutting-edge platform.
