In this course, Garrett Mueller, the head football coach at Stewartville High School, discusses the importance of speed in football and how it contributes to building a winning program. Mueller shares his journey of discovering sprint-based football in 2019 and how it transformed his coaching approach. He emphasizes the significance of a sprint-based philosophy that goes beyond just speed training, it's about fostering a culture of high-performance athletes who are not only physically prepared but also mentally and emotionally invested in the program. With over six successful seasons, including two undefeated state championships, Mueller illustrates how this methodology works from the top to the bottom of the program, benefiting all levels from varsity to middle school.
