Irving “Boo” Schexnayder is recognized as one of the leading authorities in training design. As a co-founder of SAC, he brings 39 years of experience in the coaching and consulting fields to the organization. He is currently serving as the Strength Coach for the Track and Field Program at LSU.

Schexnayder, who coached collegiately at Louisiana-Lafayette and Blinn Junior College, prior to arriving at LSU, placed quite an imprint on the collegiate track and field scene. Regarded as one of the world’s premier field event coaches, he was the mastermind behind 19 NCAA Champions during his collegiate coaching career. 

Internationally, he has coached triple jumper Walter Davis to multiple World Championships, and long jumper John Moffitt to a silver medal at the 2004 Olympics in Athens. He also tutored former US Long Jump Champ Brian Johnson, Miguel Pate, ranked 6th in the world in 2008, US Indoor Champ Jeremy Hicks, and Olympic triple jumper Ayanna Alexander. He has coached 11 Olympians, and has served on coaching staffs for Team USA to the 2003 Pan Am Games in Santo Domingo, the 2006 World Junior Championships in Beijing, and was the Jumps Coach for Team USA at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. 

He currently tutors a group of international-level competitors including Jamaican Long Jump champ Damar Forbes, Canadian Champ Christabel Nettey, and American standouts Quanesha Burks and Lynnika Pitts. 

Although Schexnayder has had much success on the track, he has been just as successful off the track. He is certified at Level I, II and III, and owns the prestigious Master Coach Designation from USA Track and Field. He has formerly served as national chair of USATF’s Coaching Education Committee, Jumps Subcommittee chair, and chair of the Biomechanics subcommittee. Schexnayder was the founder of the Track and Field Academy, the educational branch of the US Track and Field and Cross Country Association. 

He has been very active in curriculum development for Coaching Education programs and has lectured across the world on speed/power training programs, biomechanics, track & field-specific training, and rehabilitation.

Most of the strength training progressions seems outdated. 4-5 reps at 50-65% in the Olympic lifts are very outdated. Would have been better if the user could have downloaded the power point slides.
