PRIORITIZE SINGLE LEG STRENGTH❗️

Squat & Deadlift do NOT always have to be your main lower body lifts. There are plenty of ways to get strong.

Here are some MAJOR benefits of prioritizing single leg lifts:

1️⃣ Exposes strength & balance inefficiencies & inequalities. Strong on 2 legs doesn’t mean strong on 1 leg.. Strong on each leg does mean strong on 2 legs. I’ve seen enough strong squats & deadlifts get buried with single leg exercises. Typically isn’t true the other way around.

2️⃣ Less back pain. Regardless of their technique, some athletes experience back pain from squatting & deadlifting. YOU DO NOT NEED TO SQUAT OR DEADLIFT TO GET STRONG… Single leg exercises can alleviate that pain. Less load, similar intensities, similar benefits.

3️⃣ “Sports are played on 1 leg.” I’ve heard this plenty of times and there is definitely a ton of truth to it. Movements are very single leg dependent. Sprinting, stopping, changing direction, jumping, landing. Single leg training can be the key to higher performance and less risk for injury.

4️⃣ Less learning curve. Beginners can immediately reap the rewards of single leg training because of how easy it is to implement. Something as simple as sitting on a bench and standing up using 1 leg is challenging for someone who has never done it. No bar on the back, no picking up weight, no teaching hip hinge.. Simple single leg training will buy athletes time to train while simultaneously improving squat and deadlift technique.

POOL NOODLE FENCING 🤺

Love utilizing this as part of the warm-up before a sprint day, before a lift, or before testing.

▪️Stimulate the CNS
▪️Reaction Based
▪️Footwork
▪️Conditioning
▪️Fun = Max Effort

✅ Invest in Pool Noodles
✅ Gamify Training

Showing off her new knee!

There’s nothing more fulfilling for sports medicine doctors than to help young athletes get back to sports.

Good luck to the Edinboro University Fighting Scots on the upcoming season! 🏀

[Erudite Basketball @Erudite_Hoops]

It’s called the Erudite Family for a reason…@MauraSuman has been a huge influence both as a player and as a coach. The respect she fostered between her players led them to cheer her on after she cheered them on last spring!

[Tom @trennie01]

Girls were cheering on their @Erudite_Hoops Coach @MauraSuman at Seton Hill tonight. Great game to boot.
