Your middle schooler doesn't need "sport specific" training with a private trainer. They need to stop playing that sport year round, eat real food, sleep well, and become a better athlete through strength and speed training.

Read this and take action.

People will want to blame turf, female anatomy and the menstrual cycle for the rise in ACLs. Yes, these can be part of the multi factorial puzzle 🧩 . But can we first address the elephant 🐘 in the room? Many girls soccer ⚽️ players have just finished an 11 month season. Combine that with no consistent strength training during that time and we have a disaster on our hands.

If ALL high schools had access to a registered dietitian and certified sports nutritionist it would be transformational not only in athletics but academics. If kids had access to healthy eating education and fueling sport performance it would be an absolute game changer in regard to mental health, risk of disease, and more. Our healthy lifestyle education and sports nutrition partnership offers the very solutions to the needs sports parents and young kids face. I've been speaking to athletes , schools, and programs for the last 8 years. Kids that know better, eat better, and perform better. They also tend to have less mental health issues, less school days missed, less injuries, less anxiety and disordered eating, healthier relationship with food, and healthier habits that they carry into adulthood. Let us help you help your kids and athletes. Get in touch today to discuss your needs and what we can do to help! nutritionwithwendi.com/sports-nutriti…

Congratulations to our Raid at the Rock Champions, @Coach_McKinney0 and @bloomcarroll_fb !

Some cool pictures!

and at least in Georgia, NIL will only benefit the 6-10 schools that have the resources to buy players from other schools and the coaches too insecure to just coach the young men in their school building.

“At this age (referencing high school athletes) if anyone is telling you not to have them lift weights? Shoot ‘em.” @Tony_Villani_ Preach. This whole pendulum swing away from getting strong with developmental athletes isn’t the move. Basic capacities transfer at low training ages. Period.

The problem with accepting late work without penalty is that due dates exist for CONTENT reasons, not just CONVENIENCE. If you didn't do the work yesterday, you won't be ready for today's lesson, and you'll learn less. If you didn't turn in your draft, you can't revise. Etc.

The speed and (in)accuracy of how some of my students complete their state standardized test. Yup, the same test that factors into whether I’m an effective teacher. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I wish more HS kids would just maximize their HS experience rather than pour all of their soul into an idea of a sports scholarship offer...

@JackNimesheim This looks like a picture of you from Denison intramural basketball

What a terrible start to my afternoon. I fired up the family desktop and incidentally came across some footage of my 7-year-old self playing Glenview Park District basketball. I’m two minutes in and I’ve already watched myself smoke three layups.

I didn’t laugh because kids sports have gotten this ridiculous.

@ohiotate No

Are we counting these as fully eaten wings???

@ohiotate @lakeview_jh You might need to tag me in since I had the longest putt in the 22-23 ELA season.

Announcement: If I win the Barstool Minigolf Open, I will be providing a pizza party for the entire student body of my former school, @lakeview_jh
