Episode 35 | Guest: Gratas

 

Stan and Gratas break down "adolescent awkwardness" — the clumsy, uncoordinated phase many young athletes go through during a growth spurt. They cover why it happens, how to spot when growth is fast enough to raise injury risk, and what to actually do about it: strength training with movement variety, wrestling-style body-control drills, multi-sport exposure, coordination ladders, and sleep. Practical, not theoretical — built for parents and coaches watching a kid suddenly hit doorframes and drop passes.
