4.27 ⚡️👀 @lorenzostyles_ THANK YOU GOD 🤞🏽
27 Feb 2026
27 Drafted. 27 lives forever changed. 27 families impacted. So happy for these guys. So grateful for an incredible TEAM. So many stories here i wish we could tell. We always wanted to do this to make an impact… we’ve had 1st rounders before.. but never had an IMPACT like this. Seeing these guys get drafted made me incredibly emotional. I saw how hard they worked for this and I can only imagine as a father what the parents perspective was. Appreciate the agents & families for trusting us and giving us the opportunity.

Go to Orange Theory or a Pilates studio and you will find coaches that are way more talented than a lot of people working in the pro space. @les7spellman wouldn't try to start working with pros without understanding how to work with general population first. You don't get better by working with pros. You get better by working with gen pop, teaching classes, and coaching youth athletes. That's where you can test things out and start to build your systems and how you communicate.
Is coaching gen pop harder than coaching pro athletes? Let us know in the comments!

Athlete profiling has historically been a marketing tool to get people to buy products they never use. @les7spellman explains why so many coaches get archetyping wrong. If you're testing and profiling your athletes but doing nothing when it comes to their programming, then you're just wasting your time. On the other hand, just because you put your athlete into a certain bucket doesn't mean they shouldn't get a comprehensive program that covers all their qualities. If you do it right, it can be a good tool, but too many coaches don't know how to utilize their data correctly.
Is athlete profiling overrated? Let us know in the comments!

Stop overthinking your recovery.
@les7spellman has coached and tracked recovery in hundreds of athletes who have access to the most expensive recovery tools. What keeps showing up isn't glamorous: sleep a lot, eat pretty well, hydrate, do some low-level work, get sunlight early.
The two biggest levers he names to support recovery are early sunlight and consistent bedtimes. The second one is hard. In professional sport you have travel, practice and late starts that put an athlete's schedule all over the place. This is why having a plan B is important. Les and his team circle the late games and the long flights in advance and build the game plan to optimize recovery in unfavorable conditions:
- Eye mask on the plane
- Earbuds in with no music to block out the noise
- Magnesium timed right
- Get to sleep
What surprised Les was how deeply the players bought in. As one of them put it, in college he was doing the light bed every week, and he feels better now than he did then.
If a consistent bedtime can out-recover a six-figure machine, you probably don't have a tools problem.
Full episode with Les Spellman on building speed and agility is on my YouTube channel.

If it’s important, do it often. But the catch is that usually the more specific, the more fatiguing it is
@les7spellman demonstrates a 2-Step Push: the first two steps of a sprint against medium resistance. An easy way to work on the start without crushing the athlete
It’s more specific than a slow exercise like a march, but it stops before full sprinting so it doesn’t create excessive fatigue
Because speed is built over time, the best drills are specific and allow for frequent exposure

Just because you're strong doesn't mean you can produce a lot of force. @les7spellman speaks on getting stronger in the weightroom while preserving speed. At the end of the day, you gotta put some reactive components in your program. You do need some level of strength and capacity to be able to run fast, but a lot of it is driven by coordination, kinematics, and elastic qualities. Sprinting is not just a muscular activity. If you balance your program out by deemphazing the concentric phase and finding other creative ways to produce a lot of force in the weightroom, you'll end up with a more balanced athlete who's better prepared to express the available force that they have in a faster setting.
How do you preserve speed in the weightroom? Let us know in the comments!

Getting a chance to sit down with @les7spellman to hear how he is implementing The Force System was a surreal experience 🙏
What started as a system that I developed to help with my internal programming process, has grown into something that coaches at the top of the field utilize with their athletes. Continue to enjoy the process of education and refinement ✍️
Stay tuned for more to come!
