In this third voiceover episode, we dig into the major scheduling and programming headaches that often derail Strength & Speed plans in busy schools—from cramped facilities and multi-sport conflicts to random half-days and last-minute schedule changes. You’ll hear practical fixes and mindset shifts to keep your classes on track, no matter how wild your calendar gets.
Main Takeaways
Cramped Facilities
Key Fix: Station-based rotations or “rack station” setups to reduce crowding and minimize movement.
Balancing Multi-Sport Athletes
Key Fix: Treat the in-school session as their main lift time; use after-school workouts as extras or skill-specific.
Scheduling & Time Constraints
Key Fix: Break training into “micro-sessions” and map out a weekly overview to stay flexible on half-days or assembly schedules.
Quick Bonus: Data Tracking
Key Fix: Use simple daily/weekly readiness surveys. Pivot to mobility or lighter technique if fatigue levels are high.
