Training just sport-specifics is dangerous for ANY athlete.
It might seem counterintuitive…
But training for general athleticism is better than doing sport-specifics any day.
Why?
Because every athlete experiences some kind of pattern overload…
> Baseball athletes throwing and pitching with one side of the body…
> Fighters constantly punching and protracting the shoulders…
> Soccer players and football players performing quad-dominant movements…
All of this creates pattern overload.
And when you go into the gym and perform MORE of these sport-specific patterns…
You’re asking for injury.
That said, my sport-specific programs follow a different approach.
Because they build your general athleticism first…
Explosiveness, vertical, agility, speed, and strength….
Then sprinkle in sport-specific movements…
For the perfect dosage.
That makes you a better athlete AND protects you from injury.
