WHAT ARE THE TOPICS COVERED?:

DAN JOHN
The Quadrants: Finally, clarity in the world of weights
The Role of Hypertrophy and Armor Building
The “Four Knots:” It’s not what you think about core any more.
How do YOU measure up? Do “I” need an “INTERVENTION?”
What is the impact of the strength coach to sport? Shouldn't it be obvious? Then, why doesn't the team with the best gym numbers ALWAYS win?
Should a 1,000 pound deadlifter jog, swim and bicycle? Play in a local basketball league? Should a 12 year old boy rest five minutes between his sets of 92% max on his squat?
What's a quality, anyway?
Why do the lousy guys do so much more work than the great guys?
"Do you want to be stronger or lift more weight?"
Have you earned the right to train "sport specific"?
Why does it need to be "Strength & conditioning,” not "conditioning & more conditioning"?
Do you really need plyometrics? Or, any other new hot idea?
If a training principle was considered backwards and nonproductive in the early 1960s, why would you model your career after it?
The Incredible Hulk, Sir Galahad and Bobby Fisher get into a contest. Who wins? How does armor help an athlete and when does it hurt?
The goal is to keep the goal...what? Why does everybody miss this point?
Where is Peggy Lee? Is that really "all there is?" Why does five minutes of work on a piece of paper with a few lines radically increase the chances of success?
Five Moves. Three Points. Why do I feel like maybe those zeroes are a bad thing?
Why is my favorite sports diet Frogs, Elephants and Alpo Dog Food?
Losers get more out of losing than winners get out of winning. Strong statement...but true?

Presenter Bio: Jay Ashman

Jay Ashman is the owner of Invictus Strength and Conditioning in North Ridgeville, OH.

He has trained athletes of all types and skill levels since 2003, starting his career off at Gold's Gym in Reading PA, moving to NY to work at Bally's and Equinox and then being named Director of Special Programs at Big Al's in Amityville, NY.  He moved to Ohio in 2010 to work with the area's athletes as Ohio has an excellent tradition of high school and college sports excellence.

In his own career he has played most major sports and many minor ones.  His notable achievements are having a professional football workout in 1998 for the now defunct RFL, playing rugby for ten years, most notably as a starter at tighthead prop for the national qualifier Long Island Rugby Football Club.  He also competed in many strongman contests recently finishing 3rd as a heavyweight at the Steel Valley Strongman Classic, a NAS event.  He also has recently started to compete as a powerlifter, finishing 2nd in his class at the ICG push/pull meet.

He has a two year degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant and learned his craft from years of being in the gyms, talking with those in this industry and constant learning.  He believes that education in this field doesn't start and end with a college degree, it is something you hone, craft and you are always learning.

Currently he works with area athletes to help them prepare for their sports season(s).
