This week’s episode builds directly off Wednesday's conversation with former NFL first-round draft pick Adam Archuleta, where we discussed intent-based training, speed development, and the training methods that helped shape his rise to becoming one of the most explosive athletes in football.That conversation sparked an interesting follow-up discussion around long-term speed development, efficiency of training, and what actually separates good combine preparation from truly elite results. While Adam discussed the years of work that helped improve his speed profile, this episode shifts toward the modern world of combine preparation and the coaches who have consistently produced high-level testing performances in a shorter time frame.Enter Tony Villani.Tony is one of the most respected names in elite athlete development and NFL Combine preparation. As the founder of XPE Sports he has trained multiple first-round draft picks across the NFL, MLB, and NBA, helping athletes maximize their testing numbers and dramatically improve their draft stock. His work has helped shape the modern combine preparation landscape, particularly in speed development and explosive performance.Tony earned his Master’s Degree in Exercise Physiology from George Washington University, where his graduate research on exhaustive interval training was published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology. His career path included stops with the Washington Capitals, Orlando Magic, and Cris Carter’s FAST Program before launching XPE in 2002.This episode dives into the realities of speed development, combine prep, and what actually moves the needle when athletes are trying to separate themselves at the highest level.XPE: https://tonyvillani.com/SHREDmill: https://tonyvillani.com/shredmill/

Today on the podcast we’re joined by Dr. Lance Brooks, a biomechanist and physiologist whose work focuses on how force is actually produced and expressed in sport. Dr. Brooks serves as a faculty member at Bridgewater State University—which is also my alma mater—and he brings a rare combination of high-level research and real-world performance application.In this episode, we talk about sprint mechanics, acceleration, stretch–shortening cycle performance, and why some of the metrics coaches rely on may not mean what we think they mean. We dig into his critique of the Reactive Strength Index, the development of the Dynamic Rebound Index, and what it really means to evaluate force production in a mechanically sound way.$1 Trial Membership to SCN🏫CEUs: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/TrialSave on your re-certification to the NSCA and CSCCa with best price CEUs🏫CEUs: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/CEUCONNECT:🌎Site: https://strengthcoachnetwork.com/From our sponsors:Hawkin DynamicsSite: https://www.hawkindynamics.com/Hawkin Dynamics is the world leader in force plate solutions.
