Back to EpisodesCameron Josse on Sprint Training, Neural Outputs, and Football Specific-Speed
Description
Cameron Josse is an Assistant Strength & Conditioning Coach for football at Auburn University.
Before joining the Auburn Tigers, Cameron served as an Athletic Performance Coach for football at Indiana University. And his journey in sports performance began with a 7-year stint at DeFranco’s Training Systems, where he held the position of Director of Sports Performance from 2014-2020.
In this episode of the show, we dive into a bunch of fun topics, but they all revolve around a central theme – SPEED!
For instance, how has Cam’s speed training philosophy evolved over the years?
How is he maximizing speed development with his football players?
And in one of my favorite parts of the show, how can we prevent hamstring pulls in high-speed running?
Do I have control over that position and that range of motion? And to me, that’s neurally driven – and it comes back to coordination. – Cameron Josse
