Building Speed & Setting Golden Standards w/ Notre Dame Football's Loren Landow

EP. 088

Coach Loren Landow, Head of Football Performance at the University of Notre Dame, joins Tex to share his approach to speed, culture and leadership development for the Fighting Irish.

Coach Landow shares his approach to teaching agility, acceleration & transitions, why he makes freshmen train in tennis shoes instead of cleats, and how he builds a culture where "if not now, then when?" isn't just a saying—it's a standard.

Learn Notre Dame Football's Golden Standard—the three pillars of Challenge Everything, Unit Strength, and Competitive Spirit—and why consistency in leadership is the hardest skill to master.

Key Takeaways:
  • Why consistency is a superpower and how it builds trust with athletes
  • The transition assessment that exposes movement inefficiencies
  • How to make every athlete faster (and why "you're born with it" is a lazy excuse)
  • Leadership lessons: repeating yourself without getting sick of your own voice
  • Training philosophy for developing efficient movers across 113 athletes
  • Managing dual-sport athletes competing at the highest level

Whether you're coaching high school athletes or leading a performance team, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom on movement, leadership, and building a culture of excellence.
