I first met John while coaching for the Houston Dynamo MLS Academy in 2011. We had one of the strongest academies in the nation at that time, and he was a pivotal factor behind our success. His expertise in biomechanics and peak human performance, friendly communication style, and collaborative spirit helped our coaching staff develop some of the best youth soccer players in the country. Years later, and I still find myself consulting with John when I need top-class information regarding player load and off-season fitness programming. In my current role as the Strategy Analyst for the United States Air Force Academy men’s soccer program, I sought out John’s input for crafting a summer fitness regimen in preparation for our team’s 2022 fall season. We won the 2022 WAC Regular Season Conference Championship and were regarded by our opponents as one of the toughest teams in the country to play against.
