More than Just Strength and Conditioning

Just a quick thought today.

I find myself more and more involved with what my athletes have going on in their lives outside of the gym. Usually as soon as guys enter the gym I start firing questions at them about grades, school in general, about college and the recruiting process, whether or not they are staying out of trouble, etc. I have noticed a trend. Kids are coming in with the best report cards in their lives, noticeably more confident, not to mention playing the best they have ever played in their chosen sport. I think strengthening the body transfers to all aspects of life. I also think I am involved in more than just strength and conditioning.
