Episode 135: Tennis S&C Deepdive with Matt Kuzdub



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome a special guest onto the show – Matt Kuzdub.  Matt is a tennis coach and a tennis strength & conditioning coach – and I’ll even frame that differently, that’s he’s just an awesome sport and S&C coach and the sport and athletes that he works with happen to be tennis players. He’s also Zak’s tennis and S&C coach and Matt is currently finishing up going through the Clinical Athlete Provider certification — which has been awesome for all of us because he’s already such a wealth of knowledge. So, we’re really excited to share this conversion with you — we discussed what shaped Matt’s current training philosophy, how he balances needing to help his athletes develop multiple qualities simultaneously in a sport without much of an off season, some myth busting and misconceptions in training tennis athletes, and much more.  It was an awesome conversation. We hope you enjoy

Episode 134: Busting The Mystique of ExRx



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor attempt to bust down the unnecessary mystique of exercise prescription. Have you ever felt like a topic is just out of reach or that you just don’t feel comfortable discussing or implementing with your athletes? Whether it be energy system development, plyometrics, change of direction – well, improving your confidence with any topic doesn’t have to be so daunting and intimidating – and hopefully after this episode you have some actionable takeaway to be able to start tackling your exrx bugaboos in a productive and fun way.

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 130: Hooper’s Delight w/ Ramsey Nijem



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor welcome a special guest onto the show – Ramsey Nijem who is the Director of Performance for the men’s basketball team at the University of Kansas. And before that, Ramsey worked for years in the NBA as a head strength & conditioning coach, so needless to say, he knows a thing or two about working with basketball players and teams at the highest levels. 

We go into so much on this show – what it’s like working within a high performance staff and how all the different hats of S&C, rehab, sport coaches all work together, differences in how he planned and programmed training in the NBA vs. college; how his training programs are structured from off season to in season, how he manages training when injuries or fatigue are present within the team or individual athletes to still help them get some kind of training effect in season, 

All of this AND more

We hope you enjoy!

Episode 129: A Better Perspective on Injury & Rehab



On this show, Quinn Henoch and Zak Gabor riff on a few topics that all have to do with how we as providers, and how athletes view injury, rehab, and training as a whole. Have you ever had someone say to you – aren’t you a PT, shouldn’t you be able to fix yourself? Which is funny because Zak talks about how he literally just strained his hamstring 3 days ago, and goes into how he’s managing it for an upcoming tennis tournament. Or, do you ever get the sense that athletes and clients expect rehab to work in the same way that a mechanic fixes a car or an electrician fixes a light switch? A lot of times it just ain’t that straightforward.  Or take something like Plyometrics – we often associate that word with end stage rehab or for high level athletes, but is that the best way to think about it?   

All of this AND more

We hope you enjoy!
