These blog posts are contrived, and designed first and foremost to drive eyeballs to the website of the seller of said goods. This guy has no truly new or unique ideas. He takes ideas from successful coaches and packages them nicely by using words like “Secrets Of…” and “The Top 7 Things…” that internet sales gurus tell you are effective. In reality of course, there are no secrets.
In this case, he’s likely going to tell you “agility ladders are a waste of time.” Thanks, but Charlie said that years ago for free, and I didn’t have to jump through a bunch of hoops first either. Is it useful material? To the beginner coach, or the high school coach with a poor grasp of speed development, sure.
I’ve had his stuff for two years. When’s the last time I took it off the shelf? I can’t remember.
