Preach, Andy! #brotherhood
Best part of baseball was never the numbers.
It’s the people.
Teammates who became brothers.
Coaches who cared about you beyond the field.
People who showed up when things got hard.
Sadly, as an industry, that has changed.

Gehrig Weber for Lincoln Supreme Nat-2 has hit a couple threes showing his range. He can has the green light to shoot wherever.

The standard is the standard.
10 years ago, strikes and feel were qualifiers and velocity was the separator.
Now, velocity is the qualifier while strikes, feel, and optimizing shapes are separators.
Get strong, move fast, and know what expectations are to get in the door.
At @BaseballAmerica we have tracked MiLB 100+ mph pitchers for more than a decade. Last year we saw 90 MiLB pitchers touch 100, which was the most we'd seen.
This year it was 140. Between the majors and minors, we tracked 192 100+ mph pitchers.

Replace “S&C” with “baseball” and it still applies, at nearly every level, including the big leagues.
The process every S&C Coach goes through:
1 - Learn all of the fancy terminology.
2 - Realise clients have no idea what you’re talking about when you use fancy terminology.
3 - Ditch the fancy terminology and learn how to talk to clients in basic terms, that they understand.

High sports specialization high school athletes demonstrate lower dynamic balance scores than their low specialization peers. Play multiple sports!

Joe was my Pitching Coach for 3 years.
He was instrumental in the development of some of the best pitchers in the game.
Rick Porcello & Jose Fernandez come to mind, there are countless more.
God Speed Joe.
RIP my Friend.

Joe was an integral part of my development early in my professional career with the Tigers. A total pro who cared for his players and wanted them to succeed. He did it the right way as a player and a coach. Prayers to his family. #getemgoing

6 common myths about kids and strength training
There are a handful of myths about kids and strength training that just won’t die. Let’s fix that:
❌ It stunts growth
❌ It’s dangerous for bones or growth plates
❌ Kids need to wait until they’re 12
❌ Girls will get “bulky”
❌ It starts or delays puberty
❌ You need expensive equipment or a private coach
Here’s the truth: If a child can follow instructions, stay focused and wants to train, they’re ready. Early training builds coordination, motor control and a lifelong movement foundation—not massive muscles.
Bottom line (and just like I say on every podcast): If they have a body, they’re an athlete. Let’s stop holding kids back with bad science.

Thankful for all the love on this song. If you haven’t yet, go check out the music video! More Midwestern Country Music coming soon…

Totally on board here. Credit to @CoachEricNewman for instilling this type of throwing when he arrived at Nebraska my senior year. The ability to throw long distances with submaximal effort (“massage throwing” in this case) allowed for a multitude of positives during my career.
After 35 years of training & developing arms, starting to believe, more than ever, that...
Low Intent, Volume Throwing ("Massage Throwing") is the FOUNDATION to building Health, Strength, Endurance, Recovery, Feel, Accuracy & Life in the arm.

The embodiment of @Huskers athletics. We as Nebraskans have been incredibly lucky to have @SharpeGreg as OUR voice.
"When I'm around the stadium, I just feel better. I'm not gonna sit around and pout, that's not a great way to end life."

Incredibly shocked to hear about the passing of Jim. He was truly one of a kind. Any @MudHens player past or present knows what he meant to the team, city, and organization. My deepest condolences to his family.
The Mud Hens are saddened to share the passing of longtime play-by-play announcer Jim Weber. The "Voice of the Mud Hens" for 49 years, Jim Weber will be remembered for not only his accomplishments in broadcasting, but also his love for Mud Hens baseball.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and all who knew him.
I would strongly encourage anyone who is an athlete (at any level) or works with athletes (at any level) to tune in to @DrAndyGalpin. He has totally changed my perspective about a multitude of things pertaining to what it takes to perform at a high level on the field of play.
One week from today—on Wednesday, June 12—we are releasing the first episode of my podcast, “Perform with Dr. Andy Galpin.”
The show is a continuation of what I’ve been doing for the last 20 years in the lab, classroom, media, and coaching floor. As always, my goal is to create and share information that helps people PERFORM at their best – whatever that means for them. This podcast is years in the making, literally, so it’s surreal even to be typing these words.
The format is a little different because putting out a new show every week for a year or more is not feasible or of interest to me at this time. Given that, Season 1 will have 10 episodes, with one airing every Wednesday for 10 straight weeks. I’ll cover everything from how to build strength and why it is so vital to long-term health, to why we breathe, to the power of sleep extension, to genetic testing for personalized training and exercise, to nutrition for injury recovery.
A sincere thank you to everyone involved in Season One: @scicomm (@hubermanlab, @R_Mohr, @chrisrayfilms, @blabacphoto, @ianmackey, @MartinFobes), Dr. Vince Kreipke, Dan Garner, Joel Jamison, @MashElite, and everyone whose papers and research I read and learned from. I can’t thank you all enough for all the support and love over the years, and I hope this show brings you as much joy as it brought me in making it.
I’ll see everyone next week on YouTube and all the standard podcast platforms.
