Here’s this week’s list of recommended strength and conditioning reading:

The Changing Face of Youth Baseball – Here’s an awesome guest post by Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Evan Longoria for former MLB player Gabe Kapler’s website. It’s must-read material for every baseball parent and coach.

High Performance Training without the Equipment: Installment 2 – In light of the popularity of Andrew Zomberg’s recent post on training with little to no equipment, I thought I’d bring this old post of mine to the forefront. This one features good options for training the rotator cuff if you don’t have access to cables or bands.

Checklist for Determining Movement Dysfunctions and How to Get Over Them – Dean Somerset did an excellent, thorough job with outlining the training process, from assessment to correction and subsequent programming. Part 2 was a great follow-up, too.
