New Podcast Alert 🚨 Thank you to Lucas White for coming out to elitefts for Table Talk. This was a great conversation on what it actually takes to train athletes, not just make them better lifters. We got into why athletes in different sports need to be coached differently from powerlifters, how to apply conjugate principles without forcing athletes into a lifting-first mindset, and why onboarding matters when players come in with completely different training backgrounds. We also talked about NIL, the transfer portal, building trust in a college weight room, using max-effort work intelligently, in-season training, specialty bars, sprint work, and why coaches need to understand how to strain before they can teach athletes to do it safely. Lucas has spent time at multiple levels and programs, and you can tell he has paid attention, learned from the floor, and kept the athlete’s sport as the priority.
