    ‘Athletic Core’ More than just abs. Entirety of pelvic girdle. Prefer exercises that maximize attributes developed. Elements of stability, mobility, coordination and speed #ladyhounds

    #ACL prevention in female soccer starts at youngest ages with progressive exposure to more intense, complex takeoffs and landings. These impacts are supported by specific relative strengths that promote self awareness and total body control through full ROM #LTAD

    For multi-directional speed based athletes eccentric capacity should be primarily challenged with velocity. The only thing to prepare an athlete to yield under speed is speed itself #LTAD

    Quality Control. Establishing good much easier than breaking bad. #LTAD a very long marathon and consistent, brief exposure all that is needed. Regression a powerful ally while running the race. @HoundsAcademy

    Soccer players must play soccer to get better at soccer; however, quickly addressing simple things that improve ability to move and energy efficiency should be taking advantage of. Day 2 @ECNLboys NTC. Learning how to progress 1L RFD and braking capacity for agility

    Low impact, low stress tissue prep. As young academy athletes age and dedicate more time to their craft one of the first things to be compromised is mobility and ROM unless actively maintained. Use it or lose it!
