The Latest Forum Threads, Articles, Videos and Programs

After reading my friend Kacey Bellamy's "Letter to My Younger Self", I thought I'd drop you a few words of advice with a list of my own.

Dear Mike,
1-  Don't worry about your athletic career (or lack of one). You won't be very good at anything but, it won't matter in the long run. You'll learn a lot about hard work and that part will pay off.

I also want to say Congrats to longtime member and VERY frequent contributor Brad Kaczmarski and his wife Jenna on the birth of their baby boy!




As always, the forum is producing better conversations than ever.

High Hamstring Syndrome/Tendinopathy-
This is a great thread.  Lots of info here, so much that Terry Pratt said "Three years of PT didn't yield two percent of the knowledge and experience gleaned from this thread." Contributions from Casey Venters, Andy Boles, James Cavin, Chris Leib, Terry and myself.

Training information for boosters, parents etc- I love those types of questions. Very informative dialog coming from here. Thanks to Mitchell Lamm for asking and Barry Masterman for keeping it going.

Devan McConnell 6 Phase Program-
Ray McCarthy sent Devan a Facebook message awhile back and asked him to clarify some of the abbreviations, go over a bit more detail, and the thought process on his 6 phase Hockey Program. He asked if Devan could answer on the forum to benefit all. Thanks Ray!  Lots more questions came from it.
