With pitching injuries, many people like to chase complex physics/sports medicine solutions. Instead, they should start with rigorous adherence to basic protective guidelines. >100 IP/yr = 350% increase in risk of youth arm injury. Anyone who can count can prevent injuries.

Your son/daughter does not need to train more. They need to sleep, eat & recover more.

Like many others, been saying it for years.
Anyone who discourages your child from playing multiple sports does not have your child’s best interests in mind.
Period.

Early specialization is overrated. Generalists excel over time.
Data on >34k stars in sports, music, science, and chess: Focusing on a single field predicts a faster rise, but cross-training foreshadows a higher peak.
The most successful adults start off as well-rounded kids.

Cam Schlitter's average velocity freshman year of college at Northeastern was 88.8mph. By his junior year, it was 90.4mph.
Last night, it was 98.9mph.
So maybe don't worry if your 15-year-old son isn't already committed to a SEC program?

Get married, have kids, and stop partying into oblivion.
Leave a legacy, be courageous.
Happy Sunday
God Bless all the parents out there

PE (done right) is the most important class for kids health and wellness now and long term and right now it’s not getting done at the level it should be.
Right now, only 15% of elementary students and 9% of middle schoolers are required to have P.E. at least 3 times a week.
In many schools, P.E. class sizes balloon to 60+ kids per teacher.
This isn’t physical education. It’s crowd control.
We’re setting kids up to disengage from movement early.
And then we wonder why they struggle later.

Young athlete:
I need tons of fancy, intricate drills to get faster
Tyreek Hill (one of the fastest team-sport athletes in the world):
Training using skips/marches, sled sprints & max-effort sprints
Derrick Catlett retweeted
Youth Sports:
Emphasize playing over training...
Specialize before becoming athletic...
Games skills are developed before movement skills...
Wins are more important than development...
Follow training fads instead of FUNdamentals...
Evaluate talent instead of develop it...
