Top 3 Reasons Why Athletes are Consistently Hurt & Injured
Why are athletes, especially young athletes consistently hurt and injured? I've seen some shocking injuries and an alarming number of injuries. Lots of "rolled ankles", "I hurt my back" and then some serious injuries that require surgery. I think back to the 80s. I don't recall anyone rolling an ankle. In sports, I want to make it clear that there is NO way we can ever eliminate injuries, but through intelligent training and intelligent application of sports, we can greatly reduce … [Read more...]

7 Strength Training / Coaching Mistakes that Hurt Athletes
I'm gonna kick this off with something that might sound like arrogance, but in truth, it's me taking pride in what we do and the results we've been delivering since day 1, 2002 garage days.

We developed athletes, NOT just athletes who could lift heavy weights. These athletes were succeeding in every … [Read more...]

What "special program" do you need if you can't perform light weights with the barbell basics and calisthenics? The answer is, you do NOT need a special program. You need to MASTER the bodyweight basics. Still arguing … [Read more...]
