2024 season in the books… this team was special

[Theresa Lau, DPT @Tklau11]

Happy Opening Day to all of those who celebrate.

Less than 8% of minor league players ever make it to the big leagues.
And only about 0.02% of all baseball players get here.

Whether it’s Year 1 or Year 11 — this moment is special.

You earned it.
And you didn’t do it alone.

Take it in. Enjoy it.
Then go do what you’ve been doing your whole life.

I’ve been laying low this holiday season (too busy getting married and prioritizing our self and life 😊). BUT come the new year I will posting one corrective exercise daily. What do you want to see?

Evolve isn’t just about elite physical performance. It’s about creating a space where high-level athletes don’t have to do it all alone. Where connection, care, and consistency are as important as velocity and output.

When the work is bigger than yourself, excuses don’t exist.

Thoughts

The everlasting question 🙋‍♂️
Is clinching early an advantage or disadvantage?? 🤔🧐

[Theresa Lau, DPT @Tklau11]

Hip ADDUCTION means using the muscles on the inside of your legs to pull them toward the middle of your body.

- Stability: It’s like the guardrails on a bridge- those muscles keep your hips and knees from wobbling when you run, jump, or swing a bat.

- Injury Prevention: Without those guardrails, your knees or hips might move the wrong way and get hurt.

- Performance: Strong adductors give you more control and power- whether you’re running to first base, throwing a pitch, or hitting a ball.

So, your adductors are the hidden helpers that keep you steady, safe, and strong every time you play baseball.

don’t just chase symptoms.
Clear the pathways above & below the pain. Fixing the sore spot isn’t always fixing the source.

Understand the body as a system and it will change your career.

[Theresa Lau, DPT @Tklau11]

Anatomy isn’t just about muscles.
It’s a system - and if you don’t understand it, you’ll miss the real source of problems. 🕵🏻‍♀️
A quick breakdown 👇

[Theresa Lau, DPT @Tklau11]

🟡 Nerves – the electrical wiring of the body. They fire every muscle fiber. If they’re irritated or compressed, activation and movement patterns change and compensate

[Theresa Lau, DPT @Tklau11]

September baseball is all about recovery + consistency. One bad night of sleep can mean the difference between great performance and fatigue.

Pro tip: prioritize sleep- find ways to wind down after the game. Stop scrolling and pound some magnesium + tart cherry. Your body needs it to compete.

No one cares. Just win.

Because until you win, effort always goes unnoticed.

You just have to get used to it. it’s the way of the world.

Work hard.
Dress nice.
Eat well.
Talk less.
Stay humble.
Avoid drama.
Chase dreams.
