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

Training the Baseball Catcher – This one was lost to archives at EricCressey.com, but it’s valuable information for anyone who deals with baseball players.

Sounders Sports Science and Mentorship Weekend in Review – I liked this review from Patrick Ward on a great event with an outstanding speaker line-up (including Chris West, who was one of my mentors).

Rotating Your Lifts – I liked this article from Jesse Irizarry because I think it’s a valuable reminder that sometimes, the indirect route is the fastest way to get to your goal. I see too many people who think that they can only get better with specificity in their strength training programs, but the truth is that there is a ton of value to taking a step back and being more general with your training.
