Just listened to this really cool interview of on The Strength Coach Podcast (avail on Apple Podcasts). Jeremy makes kids faster and more agile, while they think they're just having fun and playing games. Such a cool guy to learn from!

Explosive med ball exercises have a place in any serious athlete’s training program. Check out this Master Class from coach Eric Cressey, who’s been a great educational resource for me for many years. This guy is legit! Baseball athletes especially should soak in everything he puts out.

We've put my Medicine Ball Master Class on sale. I partnered with Athletes Acceleration to create this course on how we integrate medicine ball training with our athletes to develop rotational power and other elements of athleticism, and through Sunday at midnight, it's 30% off the normal price. You can learn more at www.CresseyMedBall.com.

A great example of how an athlete trains for explosiveness and speed. A good strength and speed program is very different than endless biceps curls and bench presses.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all the mom's out there!!!

In honor of a woman's holiday, here's a quick tip on women/girl's health:

Teach your daughters early that HEALTH, CONFIDENCE and ACHIEVEMENT can be found in BUILDING STRENGTH and not in chasing ever lower numbers on a scale. The below picture is a great example.

And yes, we absolutely teach female athletes strength training fundamentals. :)
