Tom Schwartz, head coach of Tinman Elite shares what he’s learned from his 30 years of coaching experience with Brad, starting with what got him into athletics and developing an interest in coaching by studying the science and physiology that goes into good athletic performances.
Tom shares his philosophies as a coach with regards to the right amount of volume and using science to improve his track times despite fatigue and workload as an X-ray technician in the US Air Force. He defines in detail the term “critical velocity” with regards to an athlete’s aerobic capacity and the general outline of how the athletes under him train with an emphasis on time and effort as well as the common mistakes he sees.
In addition to his insights into developing better runners, Tom shares the origin of his famous mantra “Keep the ball rolling” and how he came about in starting Tinman Elite, what his vision in forming the culture around the club is, the media exposure it generates and how it can grow in its support structure, rounding out with looking towards the upcoming Olympic Trials and thoughts on the shoe debate.
