South Carolina WBB Performance Director Molly Binetti on the ASAP PODCAST

In her five seasons as Director of Sports Performance-Women's Basketball at The University of South Carolina, Molly Binetti, has seen the Gamecocks lose but only 19 games. And, she's been on board to witness 152 wins that include NCAA Sweet Sixteen, NCAA Final Four twice and an NCAA National Championship! (The Covid fiasco eliminated a run for another championship opportunity when the Final Four was canceled). All this in just five years at USC. What an experience!!

    So, it comes as no surprise that HAMMER STRENGTH Clinics sought out this championship caliber performance coach as one of their top notch presenters at the Spooky Nook Sports Center complex in Hamilton, Ohio. Ted Lambrinides, Tommy Moffitt, Niko Palazeti. Al Johnson Molly Binetti to name a few. All experienced, detailed and highly motivated coaches that HAMMER STRENGTH brought in to provide a learning experience and environment to help coaches who have a strong desire for personal advancement. 
It also comes as no surprise that this is Molly's second appearance on the ASAP PODCAST. Kindof a BIG deal!

Here's the link to her first appearance
.

    Coach Molly Binetti is now tweaking the program a bit as the USC Gamecocks prepare for an off-season program that prepares South Carolina WBB for another SEC and national championship opportunity..... along with an international tip-off this November in Paris, France. 

In this podcast, recorded on location and surrounded by HAMMER STRENGTH equipment in Hamilton, Ohio, Molly describes how she got her career started in the strength and conditioning profession and updates us on the preparation for the coming 2023-24 season plans as the team is on break in accordance with NCAA rules concerning mandatory off time. However, after mid June.... It's on!! And, it has to be because, as Binetti reminded me, the Southeastern Conference is a "super physical league.....you get your butt kicked every night". 
So, a huge shout out to one of the best in the business, Molly Binetti. We wish her continued top tier success.

ASAP Podcast with Football Sports Performance Coach Tommy Moffitt

Former LSU longtime S&C
Coach Tommy Moffitt

One of the big highlights of the HAMMER STRENGTH Clinic that was conducted at the Spooky Nook Athletics Complex in Hamilton, Ohio was the presentation on the opening night by Coach Tommy Moffitt. Basically, he laid out the infrastructure of his championship performance program that had the LSU Fighting Tigers fighting for and winning the big games and the big prizes. He's been in the strength & conditioning field for over thirty years. At Louisiana State for 23 years and prior to there, he'd been at Tennessee Vols and the Miami Hurricanes.

Tommy Moffitt's Championship Level Slide Presentation 
HAMMER STRENGTH CLINIC 

So, I guess it's a no-brainer that the Hammer Strength Clinic roped in the accomplished Tommy Moffitt. And, the clinic was the perfect time to catch an Athletic Strength And Power Podcast recording with Coach Moffitt. We talked strength training and conditioning an discussed how he used Polar heart rate monitors with the Tigers at LSU when conducting speed and conditioning workouts.

Currently, Moffitt has a strength & conditioning website called The Moffitt Method. It looks like a great resource for coaches & athletes and can even merge with TEAMBUILDR, the online strength & conditioning software.  In addition, he has a podcast that he records every Wednesday!
