My Blog

This week is the seventh anniversary of this blog. I think the past year has been the most prolific in terms of number of posts. The blog is a labor of love for me. Seven years ago it started as a daily warm-up to get me writing in order to finish my book, Athletic Development – The Art and Science of Functional Sports Training and I have not stopped. I find it a great way to start my days, to organize my thoughts. It is not a business for me and except for mentions of my GAIN Apprentorship I studiously avoid promoting anything relating to my business. Notice that when I recommend a book I do not hyperlink to Amazon affiliates to get a percentage. I recommend books, people and seminars because I think they have value or something to offer, not to make a few bucks. I am not independently wealthy, I need to make a living like the next guy, but if you are interested you will will go to the website. I write the blog because I enjoy writing, it really does not matter to me if there is one reader or one thousand. It is a vehicle for sharing my ideas for anyone who cares to tune in. Hopefully I will make a small contribution to the coaching profession and defining the field of athletic development. It would be good to hear from on things you would like me to post in the next year.
