In-Season Training

Dj Hybels is in the middle of the football season and strength trains twice each week at school. What can he get out of ETS?

SPEED: Today our emphasis was acceleration with the sled sprint, working positive shin angles.

EXPLOSIVENESS: We used a contrast pairing of a weighted squat, weighted jump, and an unweighted jump.

STRENGTH: We used a lot of band tension to take away some of the strain at the end ranges of motion and challenge his ability to attack compensatory acceleration as the band tension added up.

MOBILITY: We trained through a full range of motion on all of the accessory accessories.

CONFIDENCE: These extra sessions help DJ from the perspective of feeling like he has “earned” the right to play well, knowing he has put the time in.

This session took 55 minutes, a small investment for some massive gains this season!

Shoutout to Dj Hybels for attacking his in season training!

Hard to describe how thankful we are for Kyle Puettmann ! Kyle has a wealth of knowledgeable when it comes to strength & conditioning. What we love most about him is his humor, his work ethic, and how much he cares about every person that he comes across—regardless of their background.

Kyle is a tremendous role model and leader inside and outside the gym. He’s selfless—always willing to take on more responsibilities to help provide the best experience possible for our athletes and their families.

Something you might not know about Kyle is that he’s soon to be an author! He’s 120+ pages into his book.. stay tuned 👀 He’s also soon to get married 💍 !!

Kyle, you are unbelievably kind and awesome human. We are all lucky to have you in our lives ❤️ 🖤

Long term athletic development:

Some athletes will take to performance training quickly and see massive results with very few sessions. Some athletes take more time. Either way, to build tissue & tendon resiliency it takes time. One of the hardest parts about training is that once you “have it” (high vertical, crazy strength, speed, etc.) you don’t get to keep it unless you continue to train it.

Valley Dance Team 🐾 is such a great example of what can happen when a group of athletes commits to and prioritizes their training. In 2023 most of the girls on the team had never touched a weight. Now it’s part of the culture of the team to do performance training. As a result, it’s given the team not just more athleticism, but it’s given them more opportunities to lead and grow the chemistry of the team.

This 2026-2027 team is particularly special because the senior class started with us as incoming freshman back in June of 2023. It’s absolutely wild to see that class’s growth individually.

None of that growth is possible without a strong & supportive coaching staff on the team and some amazing parents!

So proud to be part of such a special group for 4 seasons 🧡 🖤

SENIOR SUNDAY

Jaxson Custer was a beast of an athlete and intern for us at ETS. Jaxson’s ability to improvise and “figure it out” is very impressive for his age. Best of luck at Iowa State, we are always fans of Jaxson Custer 🤞👊
