Lumin has provided a couple of really great resources for Strength and Conditioning Coaches at every stage in their journey. The High Performance Coaching Blueprint and Strength & Conditioning: How to Program, Train and Recover are two excellent and easy reads. Both books are structured into multiple chapters, each with a different topic or focus area and each written by a different coach from various organizations. There are coaches from pro sports, tactical, college, and everything in between.

Each chapter covers a different topic or focus, which means you don’t have to crank out the whole thing in one sitting. Reading one chapter a day (like I did) can be a manageable feat, especially considering there are only around 10 chapters in each. Plus, as there is an overarching theme throughout the books (high performance or recovery) the chapters build on each other and the main theme flows seamlessly through them. As far as current S&C related resources go, these are two excellent ones that I would encourage checking out.
