KMS has retained Josh Bullock to lead its strength and conditioning programming. After working with mogul athletes on an interim basis through March, Josh has become the newest full-time member of the KMS coaching staff.
"Watching Josh work with our athletes over the past two months, it's clear that he can bring our strength and conditioning program to a new level," said Matt Gnoza, Director of Sport Development. "We're excited to have him onboard."
Josh is the first full-time strength and conditioning coach for Killington Mountain School. Prior to joining KMS in March 2012, Bullock served as the head strength and conditioning coach at the University of Redlands. While at the University of Redlands, Bullock oversaw the strength and conditioning programs for 21 NCAA sports, serving approximately 550 active student-athletes, a staff of nine coaches, and 25 student employees. In addition to his duties as the head strength and conditioning coach, Bullock was the director of the campus fitness center and instructor of two undergraduate-level courses in strength and conditioning. He completed his undergraduate coursework at the University of Redlands in 2003, graduating with a bachelor's degree in liberal studies and a minor in physical education. In 2011, Bullock completed a master’s degree in management from the University of Redlands and in July 2012, he anticipates the completion of a second master’s degree in kinesiology from Fresno Pacific University. Bullock is one of 308 Registered Strength and Conditioning Coaches (RSCC) in the country as well as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with Distinction (CSCS,*D) through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). He is also a USA Weightlifting (USAW)-certified coach. He is also a certified Specialist in Performance Nutrition.

Under the direction of Mike Sutcliffe, recreation director for the Town of Killington, and Dave Hardy, trail-building expert for the Green Mountain Club, 15 KMS student-athletes and 14 KMS staff members provided labor for the last of the town’s three 2011 work days on the new River Road Loop trail. When completed in the spring of 2012, the River Road Loop trail will feature 4.1 miles through the scenic Ottaquechee River Valley in Killington and will be particularly unusual in Vermont due to its minimal elevation change.
