Every year I re-read my father’s PE book on tumbling. My Whitehall classmates will remember our elementary gymnastics show we put on. We did advanced skills on floor routines, bars, pommel, springboards… PE, for us, was long term athletic development in process.

If PE Teachers don’t start pushing back against non-PE teachers being allowed to teach Physical Education it will continue to be treated as Recess. Don’t give administration a reason to disrespect Physical Education. It the main source of all education.

Don’t skip your athletes upper body power training.

Fundamentals live on a sliding scale.

What’s Fundamental for one person…

Is too advanced for another.

We can all agree it’s important we teach our children to “Think Rationally” when making decisions.

If parents actually stepped back, looked at the current model of travel sports, used Rational Thinking, they’d be shocked at what a poor decision it would be to join it.

Our kids are learning from our decisions.

If you’re not the best player in your PE class, on your team, or in your school you have all the competition you need right in front of you for FREE!

Allowing athletes to discover 1st-step quickness laterally.

There was little instruction given- simply gain quickness and distance while maintaining a lateral orientation.

The low box creates front side leverage to push through (basically brings the ground up to the athlete)

Teaching the Lateral Run using the Cone Stack strategy which is a rehearsed pattern.

In the Speed Insiders Course break through the barrier of how this action has been taught in the past and teach you how actual biomechanics and laws of movement will govern how the Lateral Run occurs.

It’s sad for me to see development, the process, stages, failures, and true youthful experiences take such a back seat to today’s artificial status driven youth sports culture.

Tell me where the rewind button is- there was a much better time to be a kid involved in sports 😩

Multiple defensive footwork mistakes on this one possession. Here’s just a few…

Posture, positioning, and preparedness really do matter!

HS sports used to be High School Sports! We’ve turned it into a college prep program.
We’ve excluded late bloomers, multi sport athletes, kids truly wanting a HS sports experience. We’ve force travel sports down their throats. HS sports isn’t college prep- it’s HS Sports!
