🚨 HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES 🚨
Get off social media and get to summer workouts. Every rep you miss is another athlete getting ahead of you.
Champions are built when nobody is watching. Put the phone down, put the work in, and separate yourself from the competition. 💯🏈
If you hear “Sport Specific Training” it’s 100% a sign to run the other way.
Athletes should not view their S&C as a Player, but as an ATHLETE.
Bigger, Faster, Stronger Athletes thrive in all arenas. S&C should improve Global Force capabilities, NOT practice skills.

A study tracking 55 middle school boys over a full year of training (including frequent 1RMs in multiple lifts) found that over a full calendar year no significant injuries were observed. Not a single athlete missed a training session for injury.
If you can’t lift 5-6x per week AND play 3-4 games per week…
You aren’t ready for college baseball.
This is your reality at that level. If that is too much for you, join a frat.
The lie we tell ourselves.
“Once we win one I’ll be happy.” - Sean McVay
Winning doesn’t fill the void. It just moves the finish line.
The real joy?
The grind. The growth. The people.
SHOCKING: A growing number of middle school athletes — mostly boys — are intentionally repeating 8th grade to delay their start in high school, giving themselves another full year to get bigger, stronger, and faster, which in turn dramatically boosts their chances at elite high school spots, college scholarships, and massive NIL deals potentially worth millions.
William La Jeunesse: “Of 8M high school students in sports only 7% will play in college.”
“On the other hand, the [likely] number one pick in this year’s NBA draft, [AJ Dybantsa], did 8th grade twice.”
CRAZY IDEA: How about we let more kids be kids!
