Why you must individualize exercise prescription

December 27, 2019 By Bill Leave a Comment

You cannot blindly prescribe exercises based on the sport or the position that the athlete plays. Each athlete has their own personalized physics that determines how they perform.

The exercise prescription should respect that fact.

We must adapt the exercise, the cues, and the execution to meet the needs of the individual rather than just the perceived needs of the skill. Here I use baseball pitchers as an example of how generalized exercise programs for pitchers fail a large percentage of the athletes.
