Free Presentation: Individualizing the Management of Overhead Athletes

Written on June 30, 2013 at 6:18 pm, by Eric Cressey

It's been a while since I updated the free bonus I give to all my baseball-specific newsletter subscribers when they sign up for this free mailing list, so I figure now is as good a time as ever.  With that in mind, by entering your name and email in the opt-in below, you'll be emailed access information so that you can watch my 47-minute seminar presentation, Individualizing the Management of Overhead Athletes.  I've given this presentation to more than 10,000 coaches, players, sports medicine professionals in the past 18 months, and it's been a big hit.

In this free presentation, you'll observe a lot of our Cressey Performance athletes training and learn:

  • Why different athletes need different approaches to power development
  • Why it’s essential that you learn to train outside the sagittal plane
  • Which medicine ball and plyometric variations I use with baseball players
  • Why not all throwers have identical deceleration patterns or training needs
  • How your arm care programs can be improved to reduce the risk of injury and improve throwing velocity

    That was awesome. Do you start med ball work in tall or half kneeling, or only in certain circumstances? Thanks!

  2. Eric Cressey Says:

    Craig,

    We rarely do any ground-based medicine ball drills.

  3. Chris Says:

    Great stuff on the arm care. Noticed there was no internal rotation stuff, just external, eccentric and rhythmic stabilizations. Why no internal rotation work?

  4. Eric Cressey Says:

    Chris,

    We still do some motor-control-oriented IR stuff.  Just not as much pure strength stuff, as guys get plenty of it from throwing and other lifting exercises.
