Just like every other Sunday, we have another group of podcasts and articles to read and listen to that I have dived into. Like every other week, there was a ton of content out there both in written form and through podcasts.

Enjoy!

Podcasts

CVASP with Katlyn Haycock

Leave Your Mark with Jorge Carvajal

Physical Preparation Podcast with Ian Kadish

All three of these podcasts were really good this week and I would recommend any and all of them. If you only have time for one (I find that hard to believe) I would listen to Jorge Carvajal on the Leave Your Mark Podcast.

Articles

The Sports-Specialization Nightmare by NY Post

Does ‘Feel’ Matter with Core Stability Exercises by Eric Cressey

Didn’t get to read many articles this week and don’t have a ton of recommendations. Both of these are great though – give them both a read!

Book of the Week

Hard Hat by Jon Gordon

Just about done with this one, and its a great, quick read. Perfect for anyone on a leadership position or an athlete that wants to be a part of building a better culture.

Tweet of the Week

Bear crawls are really underrated for shoulder health.

Instagram Post of the Week

After posting the Trap Bar vs. Skater Squat (or maybe it’s a 1-Leg Deadlift @michael_boyle1959 🤷‍♂️) video a couple days ago I got a bunch of messages asking why the tennis ball❓It simply forces the athlete to stay in knee flexion, not allowing the athlete to reach back with the back leg, which really cleans up the movement a lot. It’s something we used to do, I completely forgot about it, saw someone doing it, and have started to use again.
