You haven’t trained local qualities like this!
Tune in to see fly wheels being applied in a whole new way, supported with biofeedback, to give us more details on how to apply this potent stimulus, safely.

We are a just matter of weeks away.

Comment 'CHALLENGE' for ticket information.

@‌schlesstrength's session explores how non-traditional training methods shape athlete buy-in, which then drives performance outcomes. Understanding what genuinely engages your athletes is the starting point. The programme design follows from there.
ㅤ
Tickets are almost gone. Last year's conference sold out and this one is tracking the same way, with a 2-3 week window left before it does.
ㅤ
10 CEU contact hours are available.

Comment 'Micro' for the free micro dosing toolkit and the link to the full premium presentation.
ㅤ
Six or seven 20-minute sessions a week is what Schlesinger runs in season, not the two or three most coaches default to.
ㅤ
That redistribution is the whole microdosing framework, a high-frequency training model @schlesstrength built over 10 years across NCAA Division I and the NBA. A typical NBA month gives him 17 games, nine of them on the road, and four back-to-backs, so two or three moderate sessions a week cannot land cleanly against the calendar.
ㅤ
He spreads the load across six or seven shorter blocks instead, sandwiched around practice, film, shoot-around and game day. Each block carries a single stressor type, so concentric, eccentric, tendon and capacity work each get placed against the technical schedule on their own terms.
ㅤ
The other half of the design is keeping high days high and low days low, because sitting in the grey middle is where chronic problems pile up. The athlete buy-in is the kicker. Tell them they have two exercises to chase and you get real intent, while an over-volumized session can cause the intensity to bleed out before you're done.

Schlesinger presents live at Sportsmith Strength & Power Conference 2026, Intuit Dome LA, 26-28 June.
