Building better bodies is the overall goal of all strength coaching. Doc Kreis challenges strength coaches to think outside the box and always be on the alert for new and improved ways to strength their athletes. A big believer in hydration, Kreis discusses the multitude of options available today to keep athletes hydrated. The warm-up exercises at UCLA begin with abdominal exercises. Kreis also discusses the proper technique on the power clean exercise, which starts with coming off the floor and creating momentum. This will develop reaction and starting strength. The Bruins running program is a part of Kreis' overall plan for strength and conditioning, and he shares this entire program with you. Running hills can also provide a great avenue to strength and conditioning on running days. This presentation is very interactive as Coach Kreis fields questions from coaches and provides direct and informative answers.
