After the game, our tendency is to focus on the outcome:
"You played so well!" "Great win!" "It's OK you lost, you tried so hard!"

But the value of sports comes from the PROCESS, not the OUTCOME.
And it is on us to teach this our kids.

Instead of asking about the score or stats, try this:
1️⃣ What did you enjoy?
2️⃣ What did you learn?

These two simple questions help kids focus on the process, not just the outcome: building confidence, resilience, and a lifelong love for sports. 💙

POV: You’re on a mission to keep your family healthy before vacation… but the group chat keeps delivering bad news. 😩

Between the sniffles, texts about fevers, and the constant hand sanitizer, it feels like a full-time job.

Anyone else feel like they need a vacation before the vacation? ✈️💙

Low back pain in kids isn’t always minor and ignoring it can lead to bigger problems down the road. 🚨 Unfortunately, I know from experience...

Here’s what parents need to know:
👉 Why overuse and repetitive extension are the biggest culprits.
👉 The symptoms to watch for and when to see a doctor.
👉 How proper rest and treatment can prevent surgery in 90%+ of cases.

This is preventable. Don’t ignore persistent back pain, even if it seems minor. Let’s protect our kids’ backs and keep them active, healthy, and pain-free. 💙

Osgood-Schlatter doesn’t have to mean sitting on the sidelines.

Here’s what actually helps:
👉 Rest until pain-free, then ease back into activity.
👉 Ice after sports to reduce inflammation.
👉 Use NSAIDs as needed for pain relief (but not before activity).
👉 Stretch those quads and hamstrings to ease the pull on the growth plate.

These simple strategies can keep your child active and healthy while managing Osgood-Schlatter. 💙 Save this post and share it with another parent who needs this info! 🙌

I just opened a package to find .tommymartin has his very own flavor of !
Taste testing time...

Verdict: DELICIOUS!
They are like candy. Like Sour Punch Blue Raspberry from my childhood. I need to hide them from my kids. And I also didn't get lightheaded during a tough workout that usually would have crushed me. Could candy tasting bites make my workouts better?!?

Big news! 🎉 I’m honored to be featured as an expert in discussing America’s growing obsession with protein and the potential risks it brings.

Here’s the scoop:
👉 The protein craze has gone beyond gym culture, with influencers promoting levels far above what science supports.
👉 Overemphasizing protein can lead to gut issues, push out fiber-rich foods, and even increase health risks like inflammation and cardiovascular concerns.
👉 The real focus? Balanced meals, regular exercise, and fiber, the unsung hero of our diets.

It’s a privilege to contribute to this important conversation and help shed light on the science behind the trends. 💡

Parents, coaches, and athletes, this is critical. 🚨
Exercising too soon after a fever (over 100.4°F) can increase the risk of myocarditis, which can lead to life-threatening arrhythmias.

Here’s what you need to know:
👉 No exercise within 24 hours of a fever over 100.4°F.
👉 If they’re taking Tylenol or ibuprofen to keep the fever down, that doesn’t count.
👉 They need to be fever-free for 24+ hours without meds before it’s safe to play.

This isn’t just about avoiding spreading germs, it’s about protecting their heart. 💙
