A good youth sports performance coach understands the need for a foundation built on basic relative strength. A GREAT youth sports performance coach, like Cory Gilday, builds off of this foundation with expert level sport specific strength and conditioning.

Cory’s 14 years of experience training hundreds of athletes from youth to professionals like Shaquille O’Neal, Shaun Bodiford, and Slade Norris has led to his success on a local and national level. He specializes in movement training, injury prevention, linear and lateral speed development, foot speed and agility, explosive power development, proper strength training techniques, sport specific conditioning and recovery strategies.

In my conversation with Cory Gilday you’ll learn:

  • The differences between a sport coach and a performance coach… and how they can best work together
  • Why proper tissue quality is vital
  • The importance of in-season strength and conditioning
