“Allow me to re-introduce myself….” Be honest, you read that first part with your best JAY-Z voice.

My name is Glenn Harris and I have been a strength and conditioning coach for almost 30 years. Yes, that’s right, I started when I was 10! But seriously, for 28 of those years I have had the good fortune of being a strength and conditioning coach along the shores of the Charles River at Boston University. During that time, I have had the amazing opportunity of working with thousands of athletes from varying sports and disciplines. Along with the Terriers, I have also had the opportunity to train members of the U.S. national team in women’s soccer, women’s ice hockey, and rowing. Believe it or not, I have worked with Olympic athletes since the winter games of 1998, along with every summer games since 2012!

I’ve written some things and have also spoken extensively on the subject of strength and conditioning. I was a featured speaker at Community Rowing’s 2019 What Works Summit, presenting Row Strong: How decreased volume can lead to increased performance. I also contributed to The Professional’s Guide to Strength & Conditioning textbook, authoring the chapter “Aerobic & Anaerobic Conditioning and Program Design” as well as other articles including “Off-season Conditioning for Women’s Lacrosse” and “Pre-Season Conditioning for College Basketball” along with co-authoring an article “Training for Ice Hockey” and a study entitled “Short-Term Performance Effects of High Power, High Force, or Combined Weight-Training Programs.”

I am certified through both, the Collegiate Strength & Conditioning Coaches Association and the National Strength & Conditioning Association and was presented with the certification of Master Strength & Conditioning Coach by the CSCCa in 2014 (Over 10 years ago!)
