Former San Francisco 49er and 6-Time All-Pro Linebacker’s “Build the Best” Linebacker Training Course Now Available On-Demand
AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 23, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CoachTube, the first and only two-sided marketplace for aspiring athletes and coaches, today announced that Patrick Willis, former 6-time NFL All-Pro linebacker with the San Francisco 49ers, joined the roster of premier CoachTube instructors and will teach a new online, on-demand instructional course for linebackers, Build the Beast.
In his class, Willis takes the same passion and drive that led his team to 4 straight conference championships and a Super Bowl and channels it towards developing young linebackers into elite playmakers. Designed to be a comprehensive linebacker training course, Willis’ Build the Beast class is a complete training program – from stretching, drills, and film study to nutrition and mindset. Students will get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn Willis’ pro tips to impose their will on defense with superb form and technique against the run, in man and zone coverage, and at the point of contact.
“I’ve had the privilege to learn from and be inspired by some of the best football coaches at all levels throughout my career, and I’m honored to share the knowledge, techniques, and philosophy that I picked up along the way,” said Patrick Willis, CoachTube instructor. “No matter what stage my students are in their development, my course will help them in their journey to reach their full potential on the football field. I look forward to creating additional videos to supplement my Build the Beast program in the near future.”
