Common story:

Kid loves baseball. Decides to quit other sports & specialize in 8th grade.

Plays spring ball, summer travel ball, & fall ball. Private lessons over the winter. Ends up swinging/throwing 12 months straight.

Does this for 4 years.

48 months straight of the same back/arm stress.

And we wonder why so many HS players have Pars stress fractures and torn UCLs.

Now apply this to volleyball, golf, basketball, etc. We are breaking our kids’ bodies in pursuit of scholarships.

Athletes need an offseason. Especially when they’re 15.

This is the first time footballs caught Cleans all school year 🤯
When you sprint year around, you can implement Oly lifts or choose not to!!

Innocent babies in their place of worship getting shot. Innocent people on their way home getting stabbed on a community train. Innocent people debating getting shot for their beliefs. We are the USA. UNITED states of America. We need to do better. We need to be better.

Prayer is needed now in this world more than ever. As a father of a baby girl what happened in Minneapolis is NOT ok.

From a HS 🏈 coach:

I decided to actually study one of our senior football players on film. I broke down all 10 football games and charted the number of plays that he was on the field defensively throughout a game, and I also timed each play (snap to whistle) in which he was physically active. I thought you might like to see this.

This young man (linebacker) was on the field for an average of 47.6 plays for a total amount of "active" time of 3 minutes and 51 seconds (3:51). The majority of the plays lasted between 3 and 5 seconds. There were a few games in which he didn't play in the 4th quarter, so these numbers may have been higher, but I do not see the kid ever playing more than 5 minutes of football.

Just took me back to those "old school" days where we would run them forever and for reps of 20 - 30 seconds, and the whole time it was doing more harm than good LOL.

Broad jump is quickly becoming my favorite power metric for our program:

1️⃣Tests as quickly as a jump mat, without the controversy
2️⃣Horizontal force is more applicable to fb
3️⃣With @FYTTio we can easily rank athletes power output by calculating w/ BW & broad jump distance.
