Baseball Coach. Strength & Conditioning.

[Josh Heenan @drjoshheenan]

Only 7% of high school baseball players make a college team.

As a high school athlete, are you REALLY outworking the other 93%?

Fort Myers 10/2-10/5
@PG_Tourney #WWBA

Too much focus on:
✅$400 custom wood bats
✅$400 custom gloves
✅$100 BG’s ⚡️
✅$80-$100 sliding mits
✅$200 M Frames
✅👀wash

Not enough attention to:
❌ hard 90’s
❌ hop on/off field
❌ getting to 2B on deep pop ups
❌ blocking pitches with 0 runners on
❌ quality throws between innings
❌ strike throwers
❌ controlling the run game (P/C)

🤷‍♂️Part of the culture today - I get it - but playing the game the right way with grit, passion, toughness, Baseball IQ is just missing - and that sells/projects more to coaches at every NEXT level

☑️A BIG 10 Coach said to me: “So we came down here knowing we were going to offer that kid, but you know what I love about him? He just made the last out on that line drive, and he’s the first guy out of the dugout on to the field….immediately fits our culture.”

🗣️Prospects: your travel/hs coaches tell you to do it the right way, your parents tell you to do it the right way, every college coach at every camp you’ve attended tells you the little things matter…..so DO THEM!

[Ross Garner @CoachRGarner]

It's amazing how many high school athletes will do everything but the work required to maximize their potential.

There is no special movement, workout, or shortcut to get better. Maximizing potential requires substantial time and relentless effort.

[Coach Bodine @CBodine15]

Do it tired, do it sick, do it hungry. Doesn’t matter, just get it done.

[Coach Bodine @CBodine15]

Your system is perfectly designed to get the results you’re consistently getting.

Quality input, qualtily output.
Garbage in, garbage out.

[Xan Barksdale @xanbarksdale]

Call me old school if you want, but I still believe that if you throw the ball over someone’s head while playing catch you should go get it.

It drives me NUTS when players make bad throws during warmups and just pull another ball out of their pocket instead of going and getting that one. (Why even bring another ball with you? Planning on making a bad throw??)

Then, after they finish throwing the leave the overthrown ball there! 🤦🏻‍♂️

If you make a bad throw, go get it.

[Anderson Miller @AndersonLMiller]

Don’t let the fear of being viewed as a “try hard” be the reason that you don’t reach your potential.

The heaviest price in life is regret. Because you can never repay that debt.

[Bethlehem Athletics @BethlehemAthle1]

Bethlehem Athletics is preparing to unveil a new initiative called More than Winning. Archery is one of our most successful programs. Instead of buying new "stuff," they are donating every penny earned from their recent tournament to hurricane relief. THIS is "More than Winning."

Time Management and Priorities
Ask kids if they want to play in Omaha or the Big Leagues.
The overwhelming majority will say yes.
How many of them are working hard enough to do either?
Extraordinarily very few, and I mean very few.
Most of the same ones that say they want to play in Omaha or the Big Leagues are the same ones that say things like
I'm taking the summer off to work out.
I'm taking the summer off to long toss.
I'm taking the fall off to concentrate on my grades.
I'm taking the fall off to work out.
I'm taking the fall off to long toss.
I didn't lift this summer because I played.
I didn't lift this summer because I worked.
I haven't been lifting because I'm too busy.
I don't have time to dominate the classroom, weight room, extra work and on the field.
The cream that rises to the top, does it all, yes, all the time. They're wired differently. They're so driven to be the best, they're weird. Most of the people around them, don't understand them. They're different. They're "all in" chasing greatness.
The cream is doing things others can't find time to do. They're making sacrifices others can't begin to understand.
Intentional extraordinary sacrifice, work ethic and time management is reserved for cream.

@KendallRogers @NCAABaseball Any chance former college players can get compensation 😂😂

[Coach Bodine @CBodine15]

@TheNoto24 @nextlevelbb @RealMattyBo I’m biased but I enjoy watching HS games. With Travel, there’s tournaments every weekend and they’re playing for themselves. With HS, first games of the year, playing for more than just themselves, more passion can be seen, etc. I could go on more.

This is Charlie Condon

He went from not being recruited, playing on his travel ball's 'B' team, to becoming a first-round pick.

Here's his story (that you need to hear):
