    We are all lucky to have this podcast
    This podcast has been so impactful. My son is hyper mobile (extremely flexible) and I found the Elite Baseball Development Podcast looking for information on how to help him. He moved really wonky and you could just see how frustrating it was for him to try to control his body in baseball and ever other sport I was getting to the point where I thought maybe sports were just not for him. But Eric brings up hyper mobility pretty often and even has a full podcast devoted to it (episode 117). From the podcast I was better able to understand the physical and mental challenges my son was facing. Just that understanding is so huge and I never would have had that perspective if this podcast didn’t exist Using Eric’s advice I started to get my son to lift just a little bit of weight. And the results have been incredible - off the charts level of improvement for overall athletic movement. And because he can move without as much effort, his situational learning has also improved dramatically. If I had not found this podcast when I did, I would have given up coaching, my son would have given up sports and all the benefits that come along with learning to compete and get better. I am truly grateful to Eric and everyone at csp.

    True food for thought, from a Top notch Coach and Teacher.
    This podcast along with many other products from Eric have raised the bar on what is possible, and therefore expected from a coach. I find myself listening through episodes multiple times, taking notes, and then sharing the good word (including this podcast) to those who may benefit. If a baseball/softball athlete or coach is not listening, they are missing out on a free degree in the development of their sport. -Brian Davies

    Jerry Weinstein Professional Baseball Coach
    Thought provoking interview. Thoughts/Questions 1. Why not healthy throwers in that data base? 2. How far away are we from artificial ligaments/tendons? 3. Is there value in ligament enhancement to avoid this njury? 4. Replace ligament before injuries? Like tires that have wear on them. JW

    Incredible person, incredible show
    I have had the chance to spend some time with Eric in the past, and I can tell you that he is the same type of guy in real life as he is on the podcast. His knowledge and willingness to share with others comes through in this show, and it is a great insight on what it means to care about your profession. It is a great podcast to listen to, regardless of the type of athlete you work with or what your own interests are. Highly recommend it!

    Stop the Insanity - #126
    My youngest son, age 13, and I rarely agree on music in the car, so we ‘settle’ on listening to various baseball podcasts as we travel to and from his games. While we have heard some good ones from various people, the one I have found the most relevant to date from where we are at as a family is episode 126 from Elite Baseball Development w/ Eric Cressey and Walter Beede. My wife and I are blessed with 4 kids….2 boys and 2 girls…ages 23, 21, 14 and 13 and we are constantly learning and trying to instill lessons learned from our older 2 and apply to the younger 2. Sometimes we succeed and sometimes we fail. Our oldest boy played college baseball at Franklin Pierce (thanks to Coach King) and I can tell you, the landscape from when he played to what our 13yr old is going thru is as different as night and day. The trap to specialize…year around or else be left behind…..the money….playing travel games on Friday at 5pm which require skipping school, flying to ‘World Series’, etc…..we are guilty as charged in allowing to prosper. So when we started the episode and Walter eviscerated travel baseball, I felt guilty as charged and propelled to course correct. - “competition heavy, practice light” - “nothing matters prior to age 14” (I would argue 1st communion…LOL) - “travel biz model is not dev model” - 10-15K spots for 100K high school seniors - the need for ‘home, school, and 3rd place….sanctuary….” - “see it, feel it, touch it” - “be an athlete” We can also provide a first hand endorsement for the quality, the experience and expertise at Cressey’s facility in FL. Our youngest was able to spend time there last year and having him ‘see his future’ was a tremendous opportunity and one that we will continue to invest in. Pls do not under-estimate the power of your podcasts and the impact you are making. Speaking for one family….Thank You!! See you in soon! Jason (and Arthur)

    Great Information for Parents
    Eric provides valuable information for Parents and their Children who are interested in maximizing their potential. If you are fortunate enough to visit his facilities to receive training you will not be disappointed. The physical and more important, the mental approaches taught are invaluable! Eric does the same in his podcasts!

    Baseball & Hockey Dad
    Eric and his team at CSP are on the cutting edge of athletic development, injury prevention, and recovery. My son has been at the Hudson, MA facility for successful elbow and groin rehab. We recently moved to the Tampa area for baseball, but miss being so close to CSP in MA. There’s a lot of very beneficial information on his podcast.
  • your pal Al

    Informative while entertaining
    Great shows for fans, players, parents, coaches, training professionals. The episodes featuring players & coaches are my favorite. I skip most of the more technicals episodes.

    Excellent!
    Still one of only a couple podcasts I wait for the next episode to come out each week and the only baseball one. Great content that helps me help my son who loves baseball and loves to pitch.
  • RC BRAD
    A+ and More
    Eric is one of the true thought leaders in all things training. I have followed him for years and he is crazy generous with his information. Which is exceedingly rare these days. The podcast is lights out. Props to him for continually putting out fantastic content. Entertaining, thought provoking, and highly educational. Highly recommend the podcast.
  • Bgrening
    Average Joe
    Loving the podcast. Haven’t missed one yet. Also been a big fan for a long time. Have you ever thought about interviewing a middle of the pack A+ to AA guy to get a perspective on what they’re going through and how they can get to the elite level? Both good and bad sides. Only because it’s probably the most common situation in baseball.
  • BKelly9
    Great Stuff
    Just a really great podcast with wide-ranging, informative guests. Great interview style by Eric as well.
  • JonathanRing
    Very Informative for all parents, coaches and trainers
    The podcast very informative for anyone interested in sports. The interviews are easy to listen to, have a ton of great information, and are quality discussions with high level athletes and trainers. As a parent of young athletes, Eric is one of the guys debunking a lot of old school myths about athlete development that continue to be rampant in youth sports.
  • 1-Mann
    Innovative

  • TJ Lopez
    A must listen for anyone in the performance and fitness industry.
    Eric has had such a profound impact on my career as a strength coach and a gym owner. I’ve looked up to him as a model of professionalism and consistency for years! This is yet another contribution to the industry and it’s second to none. If you’re anyone looking for insight into the minds of an elite strength coach/entrepreneur, his team and his athletes, then this is an absolute must!! -TJ Lopez Athletic Movement Protocol

    More Solo Episodes Please!
    I love the interviews with the pro players. Their insight is very valuable. I would love to hear more solo episodes from Eric. I think we would get directly applicable information about how he trains baseball players.

    Curveball Development Podcast...
    Shoot the gun to the ground?? Eric please save your reputation with ignorant coaches telling kids this to throw a curveball using this analogy....I think people can explain it differently!..this is traditional wisdom hanging around with little information for anyone to use. I love your podcast idea otherwise so keep it going...
  • G_nh

    I’ve been waiting for this podcast for quite some time. Eric’s access to some of the world’s best baseball players, along with his enormous network of fitness/health professionals, lends to a unique perspective. A podcast like this is exactly what a young aspiring baseball player needs to help with their development. Not only that, it’s an incredible listen for any coach or baseball fan. As always EC, we’ll done!

    I have been hoping for a podcast from CSP for quite a while and this is exactly what I was hoping for. There is so much good information and as a division one college pitcher a lot of this information I can use immediately. This is incredible.
