“When I really try to impose my idea of what it is to be right on them, big clash, but when I lower my level and I learn from them, or I coach with them vs. coaching them, I became so much better as a professional.”

What’s up everybody and welcome the 67th episode of Outside The Rack brought to you by Kinetic Performance the makers of Gymaware. In this show we are going to try to dive a little deeper into the minds of the top practitioners in the world of sport performance to learn a bit more about who they actually are and how they got to where they are at today. Today we are joined by The Denver Nuggets Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach, Claus Souza. Claus, thanks for being with us today.

Before we start, who is Claus Souza?
I’m just a kid who grew up in Brazil who had a dream to work in sports.

1) Describe a learning situation that brought about an epiphany in your career
Jujitsu and he realized to every issue in the weight room there’s always an answer.

2) If you could ask one question and you know you would get the answer what would that be and why?
Why do people act violently or selfishly? What drives people to commit violent acts?

3) What’s your escape?
My resets are good coffee, a good steak, my girlfriend, and jujitsu.
