RE-EVAL LI: Administrative Leadership
2w ago00:12:18Tap to summarizeBeing in administration doesn’t automatically make you a leader. Being a leader doesn’t always mean you’re in administration. An administrative position doesn’t necessarily mean a position of leadership and this can be key in how you communicate with your team and those who report to you. Being able to remain humble and continue to focus on your team and developing their human capital will be a game changer in how you interact with staff and the people you serve.We discuss some of the ideas around how you refer to yourself and your interaction with your team.

Ep. 94: Dr. Deb Sazama-All Things Volleyball
4w ago00:39:00Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Clinically Pressed, we sit down with Coach Deb Sazama, head volleyball coach at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse, to unpack a wide-ranging conversation on coaching philosophy, athlete development, and the rapidly evolving landscape of volleyball at both the collegiate and youth levels.Coach Sazama shares her unique journey into collegiate coaching and reflects on how her philosophy has evolved over time, highlighting the importance of intentional culture-building, adaptability, and focusing on the important things for athletes. The discussion dives into how she balances technical skill development with physical preparation, and how her staff approaches workload management to optimize performance while mitigating injury risk in a sport characterized by high repetitive demands.We also explore recruiting beyond the stat sheet, including the intangible qualities that separate athletes at the next level, and what it’s like coaching at the Division III level.The conversation then transitions into youth volleyball, where Coach Sazama offers valuable perspective on early specialization, year-round participation, and the increasing pressure placed on young athletes. She addresses key concerns around injury risk, physical preparedness, and whether current developmental models are truly setting athletes up for long-term success.For athletes and parents navigating the path to collegiate volleyball, this episode delivers practical guidance on multi-sport participation, club vs. school volleyball decisions, and what an “ideal” developmental pathway might look like.Whether you’re a coach, clinician, athlete, or parent, this episode provides an evidence-informed and experience-driven look at how to better develop volleyball players, both on and off the court.#complicatedsimple #resultsthatgiveback #heartbeatbarbell #volleyball

Ep. 93: Pelvic Floor Health and Athletic Performance in Female Athletes with Dr. Lisa VanWiel
Apr 900:38:49Tap to summarizePelvic floor health is an often overlooked, but critically important aspect of female athlete health and performance. Despite increasing awareness, many athletes, coaches, and practitioners remain unaware of how common pelvic floor dysfunction is among female athletes and how significantly it can impact both performance and quality of life.In this episode of Clinically Pressed, Andrew Jagim sits down with Dr. Lisa VanWiel (University of Wisconsin–La Crosse) to discuss pelvic floor health in female athletes, with a particular focus on urinary incontinence, one of the most common symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction. Research suggests that 60–70% of female athletes experience some degree of urinary incontinence, particularly in sports that involve running, jumping, and high-impact movements. Despite its high prevalence, many athletes are reluctant to discuss these issues or may assume it is simply a normal consequence of sport participation.Dr. VanWiel helps break down why pelvic floor health matters for athletes, how dysfunction can influence performance and injury risk, and what athletes and practitioners should be aware of when identifying potential issues.Topics discussed in this episode include:• The role of the pelvic floor in athletic performance and core stability• Why urinary incontinence is so prevalent in female athletes (60–70%)• Common warning signs and symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction athletes and coaches should recognize• How pelvic floor dysfunction can impact performance, comfort, and confidence in sport• Practical strategies athletes can use to support pelvic floor health• The role of pelvic floor physical therapy and rehabilitation, and the high success rates seen with targeted interventionsImportantly, this conversation highlights that urinary leakage during sport is not normal and should not be ignored. With proper evaluation and treatment, particularly through specialized physical therapy, many athletes experience substantial improvements and can continue training and competing without limitations.Whether you’re a strength coach, athletic trainer, sports medicine clinician, or athlete, this episode provides practical insight into an often under-discussed topic that has major implications for the health and performance of female athletes.#complicatedsimple #resultsthatgiveback #heartbeatbarbell
