CSP Elite Baseball Development Podcast: Scott McGough

We're excited to welcome Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Scott McGough to the latest podcast. Scott starts by speaking to his multi-sport, cold-weather upbringing and how it impacted his longer-term development. He also discusses lessons learned during Tommy John Surgery rehabilitation, pitching in Japan, and refining his pitching and training approach as his career progressed. Scott is one of the absolute best people I know in the game of baseball, and this conversation will help you to appreciate why.

CSP Elite Baseball Development Podcast: 10 Nutritional Considerations for High School Athletes with Dan Rosen

For this week's podcast, we have a guest host: Cressey Sports Performance - Florida strength and conditioning coach Dan Rosen. Dan heads the nutrition coaching for our athletes at CSP-FL, and I asked if he'd be up for delivering important nutrition messages for the younger athletes (and their parents and coaches) that follow this podcast. He came through with an excellent summary of the basics - and more importantly, some actionable items relating to them.

Before we get to it, though, a special thanks to this show's sponsor, Athletic Greens. Head to http://www.athleticgreens.com/cressey and you'll receive a free 10-pack of Athletic Greens travel packets with your first order.
