  • ASAP Strength Training Podcast: Cincinnati Princeton High School Strength Coach Mike Shibinski

    Shibinski_014Oie_asap_logggooo_463


    For over 25 years, Mike Shibinski has been working with top notch athletes at top notch programs. As a three sport athlete and football player at Cincinnati Elder High School, Mike learned the value of hard work and serious training. He honed his athletic skills playing college football for the Butler University (Indianapolis) Bulldogs. Soon after, Mike headed to Ohio State University to become a graduate assistant strength coach for the Buckeyes and a Master’s Degree in the strength training and conditioning of athletes. He began his coaching career at Mansfield (Ohio) Malabar High School and before settling down at Cincinnati Princeton High School, he acquired state championship rings at the legendary Moeller High School and at the Cincinnati Academy of Physical Education (C.A.P.E.).

    ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power caught up with Coach Shibinski on a visit to his home fitness center/ gym.  Be sure that if this "gym" wasn’t in the basement of a home in a well manicured Cincinnati suburb, he could open up a training center here!

    Today’s podcast focuses on the accomplishments of this well known strength coach as well as taking a look into what it takes to establish a sound high school strength and speed program.

      We recently conducted one of our Saturday morning training sessions.
      These sessions are usually sprinkled with a blend of professional
      (NFL), College (Ohio State, Purdue, Boston College, Ball State, etc)
      and High School athletes. Many of these athletes, both men and women,
      are elite and in exceptional physical condition. And furthermore, they
      are presently on a strength training and conditioning program that’s
      under the guidance of Ted Lambrinides PhD, Director of The Workout@Covington, just across the river from Cincinnati, Ohio in the shadows of Paul Brown Stadium.

      The  training sessions always begin with a Dynamic Warm-up. This would include many or all of the following exercises:

      July_15_covcath_011

    • Half Speed 50yd jogs
  • Back Pedals  4x10yds
  • Three step walking Lunge w/twist  1x 15yds and return
  • 3 step Squat grab back of ankles…repeat ….1x 15 yds and return
  • walking side lunge
  • walk 3 steps: hands to turf: alternate legs back as high as possible

    Then,
    we progress to the real deal…. the heart of the workout. The Interval
    Training Segment. Don’t eat very much at all prior to attending these
    sessions and bring plenty of chilled sports drinks!!

    The Workout

    Here’s a sample of one of
    the Saturday morning sessions at CovCath Football Stadium in Covington,
    Kentucky. The training sessions are best done on a lined football field
    and we prefer running on Field Turf, which is a very nice surface and
    easy on the knees and other joints.

  • The training sessions have been designed to utilize the latest advances of exercise physiology….. and if performed regularly, can propel athletes to the next level.

    On this particular training session we used what’s known as Gassers. A "Gasser" is
    performed by starting on the sideline, sprinting across the field and
    touching the opposite sideline with your foot…then returning to the
    original sideline, touch that line with your foot and then repeat. One
    Gasser is equal to approximately 213yds of building speed and then
    decelerating. A Half Gasser is a sprint across the field and then back.

  • 6x full gassers    (1280yds)

    9x half gassers     (960yds)

    10x 10yd backward runs   (100yds)

    shuffles

    carioca

    lunges

    flexibility

    agility ladder

    3x 200 yd shuttles  (down the field and back) 60 secs till next shuttle starts (600yds)

    mirror drills…+ 60sec squat

  • ASAP Strength Training Podcast: Cardiac Screening at MIDWEST ULTRASOUND

    Oie_asap_logggooo_463
    Midwest_ultrasound_4
    ASAP~Athletic Strength And Power takes a look at sports medicine in today’s podcast. Join ASAP Podcaster Ed Cicale and Midwest Ultrasound representatives Ken Bertke (Clinical Director of Cardiac Services) and Dave Parlato (Chief of Clinical Operations) in an in-depth discussion about affordable screening for sudden cardiac death through the use of ultrasound echocardiography.
    Essentially, they are taking pictures of the athlete’s heart and from there a reading and analysis is completed by a cardiologist at
    The Christ Hospital here in Cincinnati.Hospital_3
    High school trainers are very interested in this technology due to the detection of conditions that can’t be seen on the playing field or through a typical pre-participation physical examination. The "echo" can determine if there is a pathology.

    Contact their Kenwood Imaging Center, Kenwood/Cincinnati,Ohio at 513-936-5291
