Scott Thom: Optimizing the Psychology and Cultural Aspects of the Weightroom

June 19, 2016

The Just Fly Performance Podcast #3 is one that covers a route that many coaching resources tend to downplay, which is the relational aspects between athlete and coach, and how to optimize the psychology and cultural aspects of the weightroom.

For this podcast, we have on the show, Scott Thom, who is currently the lead strength and conditioning coach for Washington State University, and was formerly in the same role for the University of California Berkeley.

Scott is a good friend of mine, who I learned a lot from, not only in terms of programming and workouts, but also, how to create a powerful team culture and build effective relationships with athletes. I’m excited to have him on this episode, as we can all learn a lot from him on managing an exciting and effective team environment that not only makes the process more enjoyable for coach and athlete, but also gets great training results.
