Krush Sports Performance

 

KRUSH PERFORMANCE RADIO SHOW, your weekly source for Performance and Development information.

Too many times have athletes said, “if only I'd known about this years ago….. how GOOD could I be?” The fact is, they can know and so can YOU!!

This isn’t just about athlete performance, this is about HUMAN Performance. The vast amounts of information and misinformation spread across the performance landscape are more than overwhelming for today's athletes, coaches, parents and people in general. It has gotten to the point where people, even at the highest level, are doing the wrong things, taking the wrong paths and ultimately paying the price, sadly missing irreplaceable windows of developmental opportunity to reach their potential.

As the naturally gifted excel to world-class levels of performance, it has been said that anyone who practices over time can become competent, even expert, in any chosen endeavor. Now you have a trusted source of performance and development information that will address the latest trends and research, helping you reach your potential.

Krush Performance will also dive into the deep issues like the obesity epidemic, concussions, head injuries and so much more. From the weekend warrior to national and professional athletes to people who just want to live a healthier lives – Krush Performance will dive into the world of performance for you. Each week we work to bring our listeners the very latest and up to date performance and development information in an entertaining and thought provoking format.

Listen and interact with Jeff Krushell, Moo and The Con Man every Wednesday from 7 – 8 pm on Team 1260!! For more information go to www.KrushPerformance.com.

The Hosts

JEFF KRUSHELL
In 1994 Jeff graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Kinesiology from the University of Calgary. While attending school he worked as a Strength and Conditioning Coach with the varsity teams as well as professional and nationally ranked athletes. It was here he started his first company Performax Strength and Conditioning. Moving to Edmonton in 1996 he worked as the Director of Athletic Development at the Edmonton Sport Institute, training athletes from many sports and developing camps and school programs that still exist today. Late in 1997 Jeff moved on to the Royal Glenora Club of Edmonton as Director of Sport Performance Development overseeing the strength and conditioning for the Elite Athlete Training Center. In February of 1998, Jeff was hired by the Toronto Blue Jays as the Minor League Strength and Conditioning Coordinator where he stayed for two full seasons before moving to the Major League Club in 2000. Here, Jeff oversaw the entire strength and conditioning program of the Toronto Blue Jays Baseball organization. Also, during this time he became very involved with Baseball Canada and Major League Baseball International promoting strength and conditioning to athletes and coaches. During the spring of 2003 Jeff stepped down from the Blue Jays to pursue a private business “Krush Performance” .

Now with a weekly radio show, Jeff also consults with Major League Baseball International overseeing the Strength and Development program on a global scale, he has consulted with the Edmonton Eskimos of the CFL and works with a handful of elite athletes at his home base in Edmonton.

Listener Feedback

Krush and Moo,
I just wanted to say that I love the show and listen when I can on Sunday mornings. I work the weekends and I am in and out of my car so I catch bits and pieces. I have learned a great deal and am fascinated by the breadth of topics covered, as well as the quality of guests interviewed. Today on the morning show I heard you, Krush, speak about the obesity issue in our culture today and how we as parents are raising our children in today's world. This really struck home with me. i started exercising in September, not only for my own health, but to lead for example for my son who is now nearly 2. I grew up a fat kid and had no interest in sports until high school. What I related to in your discussion today was that right now I watch my son like a hawk when we are out in public, and often wonder to myself how I am going to be able to let him play as we did when we were young. Before I was 10, in Fort Mcmurray, I remember ranging far from home on my bike with my friends. Anyways, keep up the outstanding work boys, the show is not only awesome, it is truly powerful.
Sincerely, A Bruce - Team mate

Hi Jeff,
I have been listening to your show and I'm getting other dads to listen as well. Your choice of topics are very interesting and informative. I hope your show continues to grow. I have spoken with you regarding baseball (litttle guys ..7-10) last year and found your drills to be helpful. Would you consider working with South Jasper place baseball again? Or do you have anyone that you could think of to come and share their knowledge of sport with the kids.
Sincerely, Gerard

Jeff,
You did a show probably a month or so ago about mental training. You mentioned a couple of books, one of which I believe was the "Mind Gym" and the guest said there was a workbook to go along with it. If you could send me the titles it would be greatly appreciated. I coach jr. high girls volleyball and would love for my team to do some strength/core body training. As they are young and still growing and it would be easy to damage their bodies, I am a little leery of instituting this as I have no actual training in this area.
Sincerely, Richard Millwoods Christian School

Hey,
On Sunday's show that Sports Nutritionist Dr. spoke about some amino acid. What was it? I am a triathlete, would it work for me and how do I use it? Second, how much did she say to dilute the peach or pear juice to use instead of a sport drink? Seeing that sports drinks are not great does that mean the the power gels, cliff shots Etc are not good either? Doing half Ironman's I need to eat all the time during the race. What should I do? I guess I should contact a nutritionist hey? Thanks Jeff. You rock, and keep up the great work!
Bill

Great show this morning.... absolutely jam packed with good information, one outstanding guest after another.

Need to ask for more information about the nutrtionist you had on, I didn't catch her name, and am interested in finding out more about her work and the supplement that she was talking about. I turned on the radio just at the point where she was carving sports drinks and advocating peach juice or pear juice diluted with water instead. I tried pronutrition.com, but didn't see anything there that seemed to match what this guest was talking about... any other suggestions? And what was the name of the supplement she was advocating? Thanks, and keep up the excellent work on your show, I always enjoy it.
Cheers, Larry

Your show is always great, but I must say, it went to a new level today. The young lady you featured with the interesting sport's information was outstanding!!!I think her name was Karen.Great show!!!
