Vigor Life Podcast · EP104: Principles of Coaching & Career Success, Skillsets You Need for the Future w/ Eric Cressey

Eric Cressey is the world’s leading expert on sports performance, especially in the baseball realm. He is one of the most trusted and recognized strength coaches in the industry. He also recently became the New York Yankees Director of Player Health and Performance. I met Eric Cressey close to 15 years ago when I traveled to Birmingham, England to attend a seminar he was speaking at. That talk inspired me devour every article he wrote for T-Nation, and elsewhere. I also bought every product he created, studying it countless times over, and travelled to his first CSP location to learn from the best: him.

Over the last decade and a half Eric has become a close friends. He is someone I continue to learn from. He is also someone I believe all coaches should look to as a role model when it comes to setting the highest standards of operating in this industry.
