GIOELE ROSELLINI - SOLVENIA NATIONAL & VERONA VOLLEYBALL S&C COACH #143
<p>We sit down with Gioele Rossellini — Head S&C Coach for the Slovenia Men's National Volleyball Team (currently top 10 in the world) and Rana Verona in the Italian Superliga — to talk elite volleyball preparation, why field knowledge is as critical as your programming, and what it really means to build a culture that wins.</p><p><em>Gioele and Manny are also currently building a Leadership & Performance course together — they get into it towards the end of this episode. Stay tuned.</em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>In this Playbook:</strong></p><ul><li><strong>Build the Foundation Before the Flash:</strong> Gioele has a non-negotiable before any athlete touches power work — and it's not what most coaches expect. The 2-metre, 110kg player doing 60kg power cleans tells you everything you need to know about why.</li><li><strong>Volleyball Is a Roulette of Bodies:</strong> Pro athletes who can't run for 10 minutes. Liberos and middle blockers with nothing in common physically. Gioele breaks down why one-size-fits-all programming is a trap in the most heterogeneous team sport on the planet.</li><li><strong>You Need a PhD in Your Sport:</strong> The conditioning that actually matters in volleyball doesn't happen in the gym. But to deliver it on the court, Gioele says you need two things — and most coaches only have one.</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>TeamBuildr</strong>:</p><p>Coaches, revolutionise your training programs with their cutting-edge platform.
