@sacitysc Happy Birthday!

🎉🥳 Happy Birthday to Coach Pete Palomino! Thank you for your passion, leadership, and dedication in guiding SA City Soccer Club to new heights ⚽️ Wishing you a fantastic year ahead! 🎂🔥 #SACityProud

@kj_kerwin Congrats Londyn! 👊🏿

Daughter you have been challenged so much in these past few years and you seem to overcome every time. Words can’t express how proud I am of you. Now, go get it!!!

Goodluck @RamGarzaSoccer! 👊🏿

@Challenger_ST Great share. Thank you!

🔥 In the past couple months I’ve put out some routines Wanted to link all of them in this thread for you - Lower/hip movement - Upper/shoulder movement - Speed prep - Post throwing for pitchers - Acceleration structure - Lateral accel-decel - Balance - Upper power - Anti-rotation - Dynamic core - 7 starts for first step - Landmine exercises - Speed day structure - Best upper back exercises - Best hamstring exercises Enjoy & share!

Parents and coaches of youth athletes... Before worrying about sport specific lessons, a speed training coach or an organized strength and conditioning program take a quick assessment and figure out...can my young athlete do these things: Can you skip in a straight line and in multiple directions? Can you backpedal? Can you crawl 20 yds under control with hips low? Can you crab hold for 30 sec? Can you hop forward/back and side to side on both without putting the other foot down? Can you hang from a bar for more than 30 sec? Can you balance on one leg for 30 sec? Can you stand on one leg and touch the ground without falling over? Can you jump and land without collapsing? Can you take 10 big steps forward (a lunge) with falling over? Can you front shoulder roll, cartwheel, or somersault? All these are simply basic movements that set the foundation to be able to learn more complex athletic/sports specific skills. Youth athletes should be exposed to basic movements early and often and ultimately mastered before attempting to move on to high performance training. #LTAD

Team struggling? Look beyond the 11. A team sport requires everyone to be of the same mindset with the same goals. Are there people in your environment who drag down the standards? DO NOT HESITATE. No matter how talented they seem, their impact on the group is devastating!!!

Thiago Alcântara on his receiving skills and adaptation to passes coming to his “wrong” side:

@CoachJoeyG Love this, practice how you play. Much more to look forward to as a player than running in circles or straight lines. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Conditioning using small sided games and contact prep. Wondering about volume bc we are not running given distances like 100, are skill guys averaged 5k total yardage. #football #strengthandconditioning #workout

Go on @RamGarzaSoccer! Keep grinding 📈😤👊🏿

@utdreport @ChrisWheelerDM As he should be.

Cristiano Ronaldo is said to have been excellent in training this week #mulive [@ChrisWheelerDM]

OSL U21 AIFC v KNSC. First league game of the season. Opened the 2022 season with a 4-2 away win and 2 first half goals in 5 minutes. Chop with an Aguero finish. Goals with goals. @AIFCAcademy @final3rdsoccer @LuisNcsa @Coach_Juules

@ht_hockey @Joe_Eisenmann If you search the article titles on Google they will pop up. I’ve searched a few and they are all free PDF’s

@Joe_Eisenmann To blurry to read when i zoom it to the papers. Very interested in finding readable option.

Working with child/teen athletes? First, understand normal growth & maturation. Second, give these papers a read. ....and of course, do and think about your practical hands-on work.

5 pushups are better than no pushups A 10 min walk is better than no walking A short workout is better than no workout Start small Progress appropriately Maintain consistency Win

"I Love Watching You Play". The 5-most powerful words you can say to your child when watching them play youth sports. It' words kids long to hear because it's about you seeing their enjoyment not their stats, failures, mistakes, or mishaps... It's the connection btw you and them.

@kj_kerwin Go on Londyn!!! 🚀🚀🚀

So proud of my daughter Londyn. Yesterday she broke the middle school 8th grade record in the 100 yard dash for her school 12.09 seconds. 💪💪🏾💪
