Only 23 kids have played in the Little League World Series and gone on to play in the major leagues. So... If you ARE an elite 12 year old, work hard & play for the love of the game. And... If you ARE NOT an elite 12 year old, work hard & play for the love of the game.

Your arm care program should consist of: 1: addressing YOUR deficiencies 2: hip mobility/lower body 3: regaining lost ROM 4: rib cage positioning/breathing 5: anterior core stability 6: increasing scapular upward rotation 7: soft tissue/manual therapy 8: thoracic mobility

The hips don't lie. Decreased hip motion increases risk of abdominal/back injuries in @MLB players. Must eval the entire kinetic chain in our baseball and overhead athletes. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2954…. @mayoclinicsport @DrAndreaSpiker @joshdinesmd @StruanColemanMD @ABCA1945

For the most part, you can throw "sport-specific" out the window in an untrained population. The basic movement and strength foundation - squat, hinge, lunge, push, pull - is pretty universal for all sports.

Here's an idea: instead of forcing YOUR preferences with regards to exercise selection (think: type of squat or DL), you use what feels best and matches the goals of the CLIENT/ATHLETE?

How you act when you go 0-3 tells coaches & teammates a whole hell of a lot more about your character than how you act after a 3-3 game 🔍.

Training movement is not a by-product of our program. IT IS the program. The numbers we achieve are the by-product. Don't confuse the two.

Where injuries happen usually isn't the problem. The kinetic chain above or below tells the real issue.

Sad to see there's no seasonality in sports anymore. Season told you what sport a kid was playing. Now it's one all the time.
