Vitamins and Supplements
Vitamins and supplements are good alternatives to making sure you're body has what it needs to be strong and healthy. When I think of vitamins and supplements I think of holistic healing. In an article found on Roger Williams University, holistic healing or holistic medicine, considers five aspects when it comes to a persons' overall health; "physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and intellectual." When I think of holistic healing and medicine, I think of nature, which leads me back to vitamins and supplements. Most vitamins are products of nature that have been scientifically altered. You can take vitamins like Cranberry Extract for UTI's, Elderberry and Vitamin C for immune health, Melatonin for a more restful sleep. According to the FDA's website, "dietary supplements, in general, are not FDA-approved. Under the law (Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994), dietary supplement firms do not need FDA approval prior to marketing their products. It is the company’s responsibility to make sure its products are safe and that any claims are true."

Building a Strong Foundation
In recent years working with young pitchers, one problem has arisen that needs to be addressed. A solid foundation in the lower half is essential for the development of creating force that gets to the baseball and the feel for release point. There are a variety of reasons for this, but most likely it is the lack of well rounded multiple sport athletes that we now find on the baseball field and pitchers’ mound. With the concentration of year round play increasing, we see fewer multiple sport athletes. This concentration on one sport limits a variety of motor skill that are learned, naturally.
