Joe Grinstain: Training Rotational Power in Athletes

As a young athlete, Isaiah was always inquisitive about performance. His thirst for knowledge inspired him to leave his hometown state of New Jersey, to pursue a degree in Kinesiology at George Mason University. Despite being a multi-year varsity athlete in Track &amp; Field, and Basketball, "Zay" chose to forgo a collegiate athletic career in order to gain experience in the Strength &amp; Conditioning industry upon entering college. Zay spent time at George Mason University working with the school’s Division 1 Men’s and Women’s basketball teams as a strength and conditioning coach, traveled to Senegal, Africa to serve as the first strength and conditioning intern with the NBA Academy Senegal. Zay served on the strength and conditioning staff for the WNBA’s Washington Mystics, interned at Cressey Sports Performance. Most recently, Zay was a Strength &amp; Conditioning coach at The St. James in Springfield, VA working primarily with youth baseball, volleyball, track &amp; field, and basketball, and is currently with Healthy Baller in Maryland. Zay is dedicated to empowering and building relationships with his athletes, and he continues to create solutions for athletes to achieve their optimal performance.
