The Krash Course Roller Derby Podcast
The Krash Course Podcast (formerly Krissy Krash Podcast) is for roller derby athletes who are done guessing and ready to take their performance seriously.
Each episode features honest conversations with experienced skaters and coaches, alongside practical, no nonsense insights on training, mindset, and consistency. This isn’t about hacks or hype. It’s about understanding why hard work often fails to translate on the track, why self coaching breaks down under pressure, and what it actually takes to become a stronger, more reliable athlete.
Krash Course is a roller derby performance training company built by experienced skaters and certified personal trainers. Through structured strength, conditioning, and performance coaching designed specifically for the demands of roller derby, we help athletes train smarter, skate stronger, and stay in the game longer.
If you’re tired of almost being ready and want a system that supports your goals both on and off skates, you’re in the right place.

The Krash Course Roller Derby Podcast
Roller Derby Mental Fortitude + Bench Energy During Games
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Getting benched, pulled from a rotation, or asked to carry more responsibility can quickly affect your confidence and performance. In this episode, Head Coach Cyn explains how to mentally prepare for every role on a roller derby team without letting your lineup define your value.
We cover:
- why your role can change without your value changing
- the mental challenges faced by primary, supporting, and ready athletes
- how to reset after mistakes instead of carrying them into the next jam
- how supporting players can measure impact instead of attention
- how to stay engaged and prepared while waiting on the bench
- the three mental skills every athlete needs: presence, ownership, and contribution
Key takeaway: your role is a temporary assignment, not your identity. High-level athletes train themselves to stay present, contribute to the team, and remain ready regardless of how much track time they receive.
