Stu McMillan and Loren Landow discuss the evolution of coaching, the importance of service, and avoiding common industry pitfalls.

🎙️ "N of One is Not Research, It’s a Good Story" | ALTIS Speed Summit Podcast w/ Loren Landow "What do I do? I serve." In this episode of the ALTIS Speed Summit Podcast, Stu McMillan sits down with Loren Landow (Director of Football Performance, Notre Dame, former Denver Broncos S&C Director) to explore the evolution of coaching, the importance of service, and how young coaches can avoid common pitfalls in the industry. What You’ll Learn: ✅ Why coaching is about service, not ego – "I used to want to be known for something. Now, I realize my job is to serve—serve my athletes, my staff, and my head coach." ✅ How coaching at the highest level is about connection, not just performance – "It’s not just about sprint technique or bar speed. It’s about real conversations, good or bad." ✅ Why young coaches struggle early on – "When I was younger, I wanted to be taken seriously. I wanted to be somebody in the industry. But once I stopped making it about me, things started to happen better." ✅ The biggest surprise when entering the NFL – "People don’t realize the intensity and volume of an NFL practice. The speed at which these guys repeat each and every day blew my mind." ✅ What makes a great S&C staff – "A great strength coach puts away their biases and asks: what is the priority adaptation right now?" ✅ The role of rhythm in movement – "If I see a rhythmic cadence or tempo, I know it’s elastic. If I see something arrhythmic, I look deeper—injury history, movement pattern issues, etc." ✅ How to filter out misinformation in coaching – "N of one isn’t research—it’s a good story." 🔑 "To be an athlete, you have to be selfish. To be a coach, you have to be selfless." 🚀 Want more conversations like this?
