“What do you do when what you do well isn’t going well for ya?”
“When your career is your hobby, sometimes you don’t need an escape.”
What’s up everybody and welcome the 25h episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by the Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach at the University of Alabama in charge of Men’s Basketball, Mike Snowden. Mike, thanks for being with us.
Before we start, who is Mike Snowden?
I’m a guy from Fredrick Maryland who went to the Navy and found strength and conditioning. A coach who deeply cares for his athletes and the progression of the profession.
1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
“Be you”, people have different coaching styles and such, but you need to be true to you and who you are, and be adaptable. “What do you do when what you do well isn’t working for you.”
2) If you could ask one questions and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
“What are we here for?”
3) What’s your escape?
My family, communication with them is always a refresher. Going to the range, I was a marksmen in the Navy, but “when your career is your hobby sometimes you don’t need an escape.”
We are hoping to provide the best possible content for strength coaches with each of our shows. If feel this could provide value for anyone else in the strength and conditioning field please feel free to share.
