Our podcast covers strength and conditioning, health and wellness, nutrition, and a variety of other performance related topics. While our main audience is the tactical population, athletes of various sports and age levels as well as adults will find value in our podcast.
One of my athletes gave me a list of interview questions to help him better understand what things look like from a coaches perspective. These questions range from nutrition, to periodization, and more.
It was a great critical thinking exercise and I believe that other coaches and athletes may benefit from hearing these questions as well as my responses. If you're eager to share your feedback, feel free to write into david@franzfitness.com.

Long Term Athletic Development (LTAD)
I've coached athletes as young as 9 years old and adult clients well into their 60's and 70's and they all have something in common. Performance matters. Whether its competing for sport or handling situations in their life with more ease, everyone trains for something.
In this episode I discuss how training varies across one's lifespan and how we as coaches need to adapt, pivot, and prepare to lead clients in the weight room at every stage of their life. As fitness professionals, our job isn't always about PRs and flashy lifts. It's about helping clients perform well, reach their goals, and teach them to have a healthy relationship with exercise beyond their career.
Whether you're a coach, parent, athlete, or a health and fitness enthusiast, this episode will speak to you.
