Hosted by Dr. Justin Lima, the show brings you conversations with strength and conditioning coaches, sport scientists, athletic trainers, researchers, and athletes working across professional, collegiate, tactical, high school, and private-sector performance. Each week, we dig into training, programming, sport science, leadership, career development, and the lessons learned from actually doing the job. Different coaches have different experiences, philosophies, and ways of solving problems — and that is exactly what makes the profession worth talking about. Dr. Lima has worked in strength and conditioning since 2009, including stops in the Big Ten, ACC, Ivy League, and private sector. Today, he serves as President and CEO of Strength Coach Network, a CEU-approved education platform serving strength coaches around the world. Real coaches. Real conversations. Education you can take back to the weight room. New episodes of Cheeky Mid Weeky drop every Wednesday.
