Overhead Athletes Take Head
Click on the link below to access a very good article on preparing athletes for the rigorous demands of throwing. It is rare to find an article this concise that actually delivers a good chunk of usable content. I work with mostly tennis players however, some basketball, football, hockey and baseball players as well. The thought process of increasing joint stability before repetitively loading it applies to almost any walk of life, so see with a wider lens and incorporate these concepts regardless of your athletic endeavor.
