Al Vermeil is the ONLY strength coach to have World Championship rings from BOTH the NFL and the NBA. He is also the only strength coach who has been in the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball.
Al was honored by being one of the initial inductees to the Strength Coaches Hall of Fame in June 2003.
His knowledge and implementation of new techniques and training methods have made Vermeil’s programs highly visible and respected throughout the sports world. He has developed successful training programs in a wide variety of sports including football, basketball, baseball and golf.
On this podcast by Robbie Bourke, Coach Vermeil shared a lot of his knowledge and wisdom on many areas of strength and conditioning and coaching. It’s a long listen at 90 full minutes, and the audio quality may make some audiophiles cringe, but just listen to the content, as always.

What was the training book mentioned in the Podcast? Sounded something like Zaborskis Training Principles but I wasn’t for sure. Looking for good reading material and it sounded good.
