GAIN – Day Five

Another outstanding day. Kicked off by Greg Thompson with a 6:30 AM session of Movement Progressions that looked suspiciously like an old fashioned gym class. Then Kelvin Giles summarized the Physical Competency Assessment and the implication for exercise selection and progression. I presented on the In's & Outs of In-Season Training. Joe P. presented his very practical approach to functional anatomy.  Then Tracy Fober did a excellent practical session on the Why's and How's of Olympic Lifting. The evening session was a panel discussion with Q & A of the faculty. We are starting the last day as I write this post. What an experience it has been for me. I want to thank my wife Melissa who did a fantastic job of organizing and administering, the outstanding instructors and most importantly the attendees. It is going to take a bit of time to digest all the information and the experiences, but I am looking forward to applying the lessons learned.

  1. What a great week. My 2nd GAIN and won’t be my last. Vern is one of the most generous people I know with his time, sharing of experiences and throwing in all kinds of goodies to take home. He also does a great job of reaching out to those in many parts of the world in athletics and getting them to come and participate. Thanks Vern and Melissa.
