Reasons to train that have nothing to do with performance:

✅ Increased confidence

✅ Earning trust from you team/coaches

✅ Improved body comp

✅ Belief in the results of consistent hard work

✅ Look better in the mirror

✅ Grit, ability to persevere

✅ Firmer handshake

Details Matter

I know most people think all we do in S&C is just lift weights, but in reality we’re concurrently working to build skills & behaviors that are the foundation for academic success as well.

Really strong athletes need really strong backs.

Do more pulling

The FIFA 11 is way better than your average warm-up.

I would bet a lot that warm-ups would be more successful at minimizing injury risk if they prioritized more:

✅Facilitating muscle recruitment in task/sport-specific positions
✅Coordination
✅Single leg balance/power

Having kids involved in multiple activities is important. It DOESN'T have to be another organized sport. Kids joining a recreational martial arts, weight lifting program, learning how to rock climb, combination gymnastic/parkour... all qualify as variation from specialized sport

[Pat Basil @pbasilstrength]

Great basic program for a (insert literally any sport) player

1A DB Split Squat
1B DB Incline Bench
1C Seated Box Jump

2A Back Extensions
2B DB Row
2C Side Plank

Move around in the warmup then hit 2 maximal effort 10-20yd sprints

That’s it

If you only follow your 🍉nutrition and training🏋️‍♂️program 60% of the time don’t be upset when you’re only getting 60% of the results.

This is why it’s critical to start small with building healthy habits that you can sustain!📈

Too much too quick leads to poor compliance .🎯

[Gerry DeFilippo @Challenger_ST]

Good morning to everyone except people who think sport specificity comes from making an athlete’s training surface move

[Wendi A. Irlbeck MS, RDN, LD, CISSN @Wendi_Irlbeck]

⚽️Sprint-power test times were significantly📈 with #creatine💊 in young athletes.

My blog is going to be short, sweet, and to the point.

🍉Food first of course but CM is a cheap & convenient way to support athletes recovery & performance.

Zero0️⃣ reported adverse affects.

For breakfast, your high school athlete should be eating something high in fiber, protein, and quality carbohydrates like whole grains to support energy levels and satiety, says @Wendi_Irlbeck. https://t.co/oMCI17ScBC via @SimpliFaster
