It's very important to us as a team, that we look at our athletes holistically. We want to know what their sport commitments are, what their school commitments are, and how life is currently treating them. This is important to us because all of this, including our work, is stress on the athletes' body.  Today we chat for a bit about the youth soccer athletes' fifty-two week sport and school commitments and how our training windows align with these commitments.  We chat about what seasons and training windows are best for progress and what season and windows should be viewed as maintenance. Thank you for listening to episode number two of our podcast.

Winter Training Window

A few weeks back we had one athlete, that quickly became six, ask us why they always have pain [pointing at their patella tendon] in their knee when they play / train. Obviously not something we would ever diagnose, but with two-minutes until our session started, we didn't even have time to list the myriad potential causes of their knee pain. In this episode we sat down with Doctor of Physical Therapy, Dr Brett Schreiber from Empower Physical Therapy &amp; Performance to ask him, generally, what may be causing patella / knee pain in young soccer players / athletes.   Brett's Bio:  B.S. Kinesiology, University of Arkansas, 2011 M.S. Exercise Physiology, University of Arkansas, 2014 D.P.T. University of St. Augustine, 2017 Certified Sports and Orthopedic Manual Therapist, Institute for Athlete Regeneration, 2018 Fellow in Training for the American Academy of Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapy (AAOMPT) through Institute for Athlete Regeneration (2017-present)   To schedule a consultation with Dr Brett, call 913-224-2990.  To schedule a consultation with the AGY Performance Team, call or text 816-519-1996
