This Summer I had the privilege of taking the girls to @sargeforry for some speed development work. This was a full-circle moment for me as Coach worked with me from 97-03 through college fb and various pro pursuits. He and my college oline coach were the most influential coaches in my life and I’m super grateful he could coach my kids. I only regret that my girls didn’t get to experience ski round top agilities or sand pit sprints with the flac jacket. As good as it gets. by @drgarymac

Coaches -

We are hosting a HS, LTAD & HPE focused conference in South Eastern PA on 2/8/25. The speaker lineup is national-level and it’s very affordable. We are in the process for NSCA CEU approval. If you are in the Mid-Atlantic region, I believe it will be worth your time. If interested, we ask that you register promptly so we can accurately plan for shirts and lunches.

Registration can be done via the QR code on the flyers. Address is also on the flyer. Accommodations can be made at the Hampton Inn in Shrewsbury PA.

Hope to see you there! by @drgarymac

Team @nscaofficial is on-site at the NFHS-NIAAA National Athletic Director Conference in Austin, Texas!

Kudos to the NSCA High School Coaches Professional Development Group and volunteer, Dr. Gary McChalicher (@drgarymac) for providing an impactful session this morning on the value of a qualified strength and conditioning coach at K-12!

If you’re at the event, come visit the NSCA, Gary, and @coachgregorystrength in the expo hall! 💪

Coaches.. Find wins, create wins.🔥

It’s not always about getting first or being the best.

The true win is in those moments where we try new things, fail, learn, & grow through that process.

Create wins in your athletes’ lives 🙏🏼

Totaled 251 at age 45. I wanted to shoot for 271 for the US Men’s 45-49 National record but didn’t have it. I missed attempts with shaky arms and, as expected, the shoulder popped out early during my 2nd snatch attempt. But, I’m pleased since I’ve been training for this comp while training Bjj concurrently pretty hard. I missed the best part of my comp, Arnold visited my session and apparently my daughter snuck up behind him and said “I’ll be back.” by @drgarymac

Never stop learning 🔥 There’s always ways we as coaches and leaders can also improve to give our athletes the best experience possible. Here are 5 Things ALL Coaches should be doing in their Weight Room:

1️⃣ Create and build relationships
2️⃣ Challenge and push your athletes
3️⃣ Create and celebrate the small wins
4️⃣ Have empathy for everyone
5️⃣ Be intentional with all of these things

Great conversation with Coach Justin Loudon of Ezell-Harding Christian School and NSCA Coach Gary McChalicer 🙌🏼 @coach_loudon @ezellharding @ezell_harding_football @drgarymac @nscaofficial

One of the greatest priviliges coaches have, is the ability to create wins in athlete’s lives 🙏🏼 Not just first place medals, but little moments that show growth, resiliency, strength, and so much more. It’s up to the coach to create that opportunity 💪🏼

Does your behavior match your goal? 🔥

Sports have an incredible impact on the #social nature of youth because of constant interactions and how often you are performing in front of your peers👏🏼

You’re always getting feedback in one form or another, so we need to make sure it’s done positively, correctly, and most importantly, safely 💪🏼

With NSCA Professional Development for High School Coaches, Coach Gary McChalicher 🏋🏼‍♀️ @drgarymac @nscaofficial @coach_loudon

Only 6% of kids move on to high levels of sports. What about the other 94%? Coaching just for performance will leave kids behind. But if we teach sports the right way, we hit that 94% and performance will also come along with it 💪🏼  What do you coach for? Does your behavior match your goal?🔥  Great conversation with Coach Justin Loudon - Head Strength & Conditioning Coach at Ezell-Harding Christian School 🦅 @coach_loudon @ezellharding @ezell_harding_football @drgarymac

Athletics can be one of the most powerful platforms to teach #lifeskills and #lifelessons.. when done correctly! Getting the right people with real-life experiences and appropriate credentials is a huge step in the right direction 💪🏼🔥

If you were part of a meaningful experience, wouldn’t you also want to pass it forward?? 🤔
