Cole Hergott | Dethroning Olympic Lifts - Why You Should Consider Other Options

Cole Hergott, Head Strength and Conditioning Coach at Western Trinity University, Canada, will be delivering a live webinar, discussing whether we place too much focus on Olympic lifts in S&C. This will include a Q&A at the end.

Cole Hergott is the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Trinity Western University Spartans in Langley, British Columbia. Previously he held a GA position at The University of British Columbia where he received his Masters degree in Coaching Science.

Cole has done work at almost all levels of sports including stints as an intern in pro, national, high school, and general fitness environments. Along with his Masters Degree, Cole has certifications as a Strength & Conditioning Coach (CSCS, RSCC, IUSCA aISCP), Personal Trainer (NSCA-CPT), Sport Scientist (CPSS), Nutrition Coach (Pn1), Movement Coach (FMS-2), and Kinesiologist (BCAK).

At TWU, where Cole began working in the spring of 2019, he operates as a one-man-show and coaches 300 athletes in a 1000 square foot old classroom and has found many ways to keep things flowing efficiently and effectively which has allowed Spartans to punch above their belt.
