		<description><![CDATA[Strength and conditioning is tough enough in the offseason, but once you have to focus on practices, bullpens, batting cage time, skill development, and playing games, training for strength and speed becomes nearly impossible! I&#8217;m a huge supporter of youth athletes picking up multiple sports in their early years of high school &#8211; by all [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In an excellent (and controversial) post about Crossfit for baseball athletes, Eric Cressey talked about why Crossfit&#8217;s Workout of the Day is a poor way to train for baseball for many reasons. One such reason was: 3) I have huge concerns about poor exercise technique in conditions of fatigue in anyone, but these situations concern [...]]]></description>

Most of my clients are interested in throwing hard, hitting a ball farther, and developing as a baseball player.

		<description><![CDATA[Our baseball athletes undergo a rigorous offseason workout schedule that incorporates a ton of heavy weight lifting &#8211; mostly done with barbells, but we use dumbbells for single-arm exercises (rows) and pressing (bench press with the neutral grip and the occasional push press) as well. Most of the athletes that I get come into the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In your strength training regimen &#8211; be it off-season or in-season &#8211; you should be prioritizing compound movements. This means full-body exercises that utilize a lot of muscle mass in your prime movers. Good examples include the squat, deadlift, clean, snatch, bench press, press, pull-ups, chin-ups, rows, and many others. I would like to make [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is something the strength training community has known for awhile, but free weight squats are vastly better for performance training than smith machine squats.

		<description><![CDATA[People often ask me what &#8220;Rate of Force Development&#8221; (ROFD or sometimes RFD) means in terms of exercise science. Well, the boring and classic definition is: A measure of the rate at which a force is developed. Rate of force development is measured in newtons per second or newton-metres per second. Boring, right? Here at [...]]]></description>
