This week I\u2019m so excited to welcome Amit Vohra to The Podcast. Similar to the past few guests we have had on the show I\u2019ve been fortunate to watch Amit\u2019s professional growth from a distance after getting his feet wet in the vocation under my former director Chris Stewart. During the 30+ minute discussion Amit and I get into:

1)\xa0 \xa0 How he has formulated his thought process around programming.\xa0

2)\xa0 \xa0 The role and power of belief in training, programming, coaching, and life.

3)\xa0 \xa0 What the goal of the program is, and where evaluations impact the directions they take to reach those goals.

4)\xa0 \xa0 Examples of how they utilize data to help structure and progress/regress drills in practice

5)\xa0 \xa0 Metrics that they look at, why they look at them, and how they impact decisions. Not just in practice but in training as well.
