The Best of 2012: Strength and Conditioning Features

Written on January 1, 2013 at 2:03 pm, by Eric Cressey

I love writing features with multiple installments because it really allows me to dig deep into a topic of interest. It’s like writing a short book, with each blog being a different chapter. That said, here were a few of my favorite features from 2012 at EricCressey.com:

1. Quick and Easy Ways to Feel and Move Better – This weekly series was largely put forth by Cressey Performance coach Greg Robins, and it includes five tips for taking your nutrition and strength and conditioning programs to the next level. I contribute here and there, but the majority of the praise goes fully to Greg. Here are the five most popular posts from this series in 2012:

Installment 3
Installment 14
Installment 12
Installment 10
Installment 1

Here’s a little sample of the kind of content Greg kicks out each week:

2. Coaching Cues to Make Your Strength and Conditioning Programs More Effective – I started this (ongoing) feature in early 2012, and it was a huge hit.  Apparently, people love the idea of having some cues they can use in place of having a qualified coach right there with them.  Here were the ones we ran this year:

Installment 1
Installment 2
Installment 3 (Deadlift Edition)
Installment 4 (Shoulder Edition)

3. Increasing Pitching Velocity: What Stride Length Means and How to Improve It – This three-part series was very popular with my baseball audience, as preparing the body for an appropriate stride is key to pitching success.

Part 3

Hopefully you enjoyed these features during 2012!  I’ll be back later this week to wrap up the Best of 2012. In the meantime, happy new year!
