The Drew Review: The Manual, Vol. 2, Chapter 2: We Talk About It, But Do We Teach It?! by Bob Alejo

“Presence, Get it done, Stats.” –Bob Alejo

Chapter 2, the shortest chapter of The Manual Vol.2 (CVASP, 2017), was written by Bob Alejo (Director of Sport Science- Power Lift). There isn’t any filler or useless information in this chapter and the message smacks you in the face from the get go. I appreciated this chapter because Alejo challenges you to either change the way you might have been coaching/teaching or simply be better.

The 3 statements included in the quote I chose to begin this review are the premise for chapter 2. Alejo provides examples and resources to a. develop presence in the weight room, b. highlight the importance of creating clear and concise directives your athletes or staff can follow, and c. use simple and effective statistical analysis to provide reliable and valid results. Strength coaches looking to improve their effectiveness as a coach should read this chapter.
