On this episode I interviewed Khaleel Waqar who runs and is the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for Rise Athletic Development.

This episode’s topic focused on athletic development within the community level/sub elite athlete in the private sector.

Topics discussed…

• The importance of athletic development even within local/community or sub elite athletes.
• How Khaleel conveys the importance to the athletes.
• What principles and goals he focuses on when training this level of athlete.
• What myths or misconceptions he usually has to dispel.
• How he goes about educating athletes on these topics.
• What “issues” or deficits he commonly sees at this level.
• What he does for lifting during season and how he tries to convince athletes the importance of it.
• How time and money affect training and his ways to work around this.
