I think its fair, sometimes people lose sight that the primary focus of public school, or any type of school for that matter, is education. If your team is full of kids who don't devote any time to...

I think I will start one up again for the summer, things at school are finally dying down. In case you were wondering, I will chronicle Neanderthal No More program, and something else once I pick a...

Charlie Francis ebooks definitely worth it, even if you never apply his methods (so interesting). He has a dvd out called GPP essentials, kinda steep though at $70.

Lets not get into another "which sport is the toughest" argument, its been done before.

I'm not sure its best to focus all your weight training around just trying to gain vert. While it is always good to have a high vert, and that usually leads to other things, at your age I would worry...

Distance running is, in my opinion, one of those bits of training that has stuck around even though its been proven to be less beneficial. Think about it this way, the longest you would ever...

Definitely find a hobby. I was basically bedridden for a month (absolutely no pressure on my left leg, keep it elevated) and during that time I would say I read 6-8 books, watched almost every game...

Definitely agree with Person, multiple sports will help you develop. I believe Russia's systematic training for younger athletes had them cross training by playing different sports that would...

I had to do some searching to find it, here it is:

Nice name....


I, like Person, am perplexed by your situation. Do you have an offseason? By offseason, a period of let's say 6+ weeks where you don't have any sport seasons or competitions? This...

Is it really sport specific? Is max strength different for different sports?

Anyways, energy supplements would be ok for maxing out, but I think it would be best to rely on your own motivation, as...

I tore my ACL last year around this time, and trust me, you will be out at least 5-6 months.

Straight bar for me, I know the hex bar is popular with football teams, but I will probably always use the straight bar unless injury forces me to use the hex bar.

Excellent advice, and I have a few things I'd like to add. I'm not trying to tell you how to be a parent, but as a kid myself, I feel like you should let him be a kid, and don't force too much stuff...

Pain in the elbow is not a good thing to have, especially for a javelin thrower. Obviously ice and heat will help a little, but there is something wrong with your technique or strength levels if you...

Check out T-mag, and send an e-mail to CT, Dr. Lonnie Lowery, Eric Cressey, Chad Waterbury or another writer, as those guys are all steeped in S&C research. Check out the ACSM website, check out...

I don't think we need a full-time mod as much as other people do. Most of the time, we just need a one-time favor such as banning a troll or getting a thread to be made a sticky (by the way, no one...

You should always run before lifting, but I am curious as to what type of running workout you are doing for an hour, and what kind of lifting program has you lifting for an hour and 15 minutes....

Cytosport makes an excellent product in Muscle Milk. That is probably the best tasting protein on the market besides Biotest's Grow. Cytogain is not that decent.

Well what for? I think its been proved bunk that steady state cardio is good for sports athletes. I guess I can see running before school if you are running cross-country or something, but if its for...
