Strategies YOU Can Use to Help Athletes Perform at Their Best and Win at Life
High School Strength.com equips strength and conditioning coaches with proven leadership and training strategies to help athletes perform at their best and win at life.
As a young strength coach at NC State I remember calling Coach Gentry when my young family was visiting Blacksburg, VA. He not only welcomed me in, which exemplifies his Christian character to serve others but offered an assistant coach to show my wife (a true Hokie) and young son around the facility. I took some pictures of his Strength Index Board (which I still have today) and talked shop with the assistant coach. This was another step on my journey of becoming a High School Strength and Conditioning Coach, which I have dedicated my life to. Like Coach Gentry I was made to motivate my students and athletes to perform at their best, and to win on the field and at life.
High School Strength.com offers online education in the form of articles, clinics and programs as well as in-person coaching clinics. Founded by Mike Gentry, a former Associate Athletics Director for Athletic Performance at Virginia Tech, who brings his expertise, innovation and leadership to build out and grow collegiate athletic programs.
“Mike Gentry’s strength and conditioning program was the foundation upon which we built so much success at Virginia Tech,” Beamer said. “Mike poured his heart and soul into our student-athletes for 29 years. He pushed them as athletes and helped make them better people in the process. He sure inspired me, and I know how much he inspired our team. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better in Mike’s capacity.” Coach Frank Beamer, Hall of Fame Football Coach
