This is one interview you are going to want to listen to again and again because Coach Cates has so many great ideas on training. Tons of great stuff that can be implemented with your athletes. Another great topic we talk about is the seniors role in being a leader for the rest of the team and other athletic teams in the weightroom.   Coach Cates Graduated from Portage High School in 2001, went on to play football at Manchester College where he was a 3 year letter winner.  Graduated in 2006 with a B.S. in Health and Physical Education for K-12.  He has coached sports and strength coached at the middle and high school levels and multiple schools at the same time too.

I created this podcast for strength coaches at any level but more specifically for High School Strength Coaches. I want strength coaches to be able to connect to each other and learn more about the growing field of full time high school strength coaching.  Thanks for checking out the website.  It would be great to connect with other strength coaches and talk about what works and what doesn’t work when training high school athletes.  This is why I created this podcast.
