Episode #91

In this episode Dana talks about how he trained his players while he was the Yankees, what it takes to be a successful leader, and his book Habits of a Champion . We also get into different training methods and why Science can be misleading when training an athlete.


Here were some topics we covered:

  • How Dana Became the New York Yankees Strength and Conditioning coach.
  • What separated the core of the Yankees (Jeter, Posada, etc) from everyone else
  • Derek Jeter's leadership style "never spoke to the entire team at once"
  • Why the best athletes he ever trained were the last at the park and the first to leave.
