What year is your son?

Best suggestion, don't listen to anyone on here as they are all experts. Talk to your physical therapist/athletic trainer. They are more than qualified to help you son out.

For the record, I know the person that started this thread, and the reason he did is because he knew he'd get sound advice from it...

Sorry, nothing personal toward your website. I just looked at it and it has great info as long as you understand anatomy and are a physical therapist/ATC. Very detailed w/alot of info but I don't think most parents/coaches will understand alot of it, meaning: anterior, posterior, inferior, subscap, latisimus dorsi, post deltoid, rhomboids, levator scapulae, posterior/caudal glides, scap stabilization, LAD's.

 

Curious, have you ever heard of "the thrower's ten program?" I am sure you have. I am sure you know your stuff w/the detailed program you posted on those conditioning sites. Great info, some of that I have forgotten about, thanks, it was a great refresher course. You are an asset to the program you work w/and probably do not see many RTC problems.
