- [Come to Train, Leave with Dinner Handled: The Case for Nutritional Community](https://strikesportsblog.com/the-case-for-nutritional-community/): Most athletes don't get nutritional support until they reach elite collegiate programs\. Meanwhile, their whole families are running on fast food and borrowed time just to make it to practice\. This post is about what it would look like to build something different: a facility where training and nourishment happen in the same place, in community, without adding another thing to the list\.
- [Your Practices Need Purpose If You Want to Maximize Player Growth](https://strikesportsblog.com/your-practices-need-purpose-if-you-want-to-maximize-player-growth/): If your practice starts with a full\-field warmup and ends with a scrimmage and you're not sure what to do in between, this post is for you\. The secret to a great practice is keeping every player moving with purpose from the first minute to the last\. Here's a framework to get you started\.

Games are not the answer, here's what real player development looks like\.
- [Coach, You Need to Condition Yourself Too](https://strikesportsblog.com/you-need-conditioning-too-coach/): Coaches spend the season telling players to warm up, stretch, and listen to their bodies, then show up stiff and under\-conditioned themselves\. This post comes from a hip injury and a hard lesson: coaching asks real physical labor of your body, and good intentions don't count as mobility work\.
