Description
This podcast is intended for parents who have a dream of having your baby become an athlete one day. I'm here to justify the need to begin as early as 2 month old. Research is strong, supporting documentation tells us that we are late by intervention at age 4. There is strong overlap between professional athletes and developmental stages. For example, latest approach to working with athletes is to identify faulty movement patterns in correlation to developmental stages which can begin as early as 3 month old. I will cover the stages based on current literature that supports the need to set the environment for success. As a proud parent of an 8 year old, I can attest to this. Life is full of challenges; let's begin at birth. My background in the fitness and physical medicine have provided me with 18 years of data gathering as a personal trainer and a clinician. After graduating with a bachelors with emphasis on Exercise Physiology, I decided to further pursue higher education by striving to become a Doctor of Physical Therapy from the University of St. Augustine. Meanwhile, I also became an educator for the public school system. I had a change to teach science to 6th graders, and work as a substitute teacher. Coming from a family of educators, my passion lies in educating others about topics only covered at Universities and Institutions.

In this podcast, we will explore using logic to determine the best age to begin a sport. At age 3, he/she should be seen as a preparation for determination at age 4. In other words, the acquired skill required to perform such as action can be mastered with peers.
In this podcast episode, we are going to define the role of coaches per my opinion. We explore scenarios and determine best outcomes based on logic. This episode will cover the characteristics of professional athletes and work ethics associated with success.
In this podcast, we are going to induct and deduct a few things related to environmental (physical space requirements) needs and determine that 3 years old, a child is able to accept throwing, catching, and run. We will allow ourselves to step back and let the child showcase his talents. While most will begin to look, you begin to perform. Coach becomes a referee. His/her job is one to showcase his talents. In other words, It is of my opinion that 3 years old is ideal age for participa...
In this podcast, we will cover the boundaries of what the child considers to be his playground. If we decide to allow the child to choose 'his arena', perhaps we can have him/her tell the audience of his needs. If he uses this logic to other aspects of thinking, he will mostly likely feel that way when the space is not enough. In such case, one may run into differences leading to occasional athletes. Not proven, only discussions.
This podcast is intended for the recognition of 'supervision' by adjusting ourselves to facilitate next task by inclusion of furniture at the barrier point. In other words, I question the size of the space if the first item of choice happens to be the size of my environmental context. It is of importance for the next cycle 10-15 months to have an open space including quite the 'interior design' for the upcoming challenges.
The intended use of this podcast is to establish ourselves as the one to 'checkmark' our intentions. I personally have that challenge. I never found an end to my goals, but yet I kept reaching and one day it was recognized and signed off by myself (36+ years after). This step leads me to belief that we become aware of others (7 months) and we determine this because not by literature (well-established) but using logic of steps leading me to belief that only mommy matters in this w...
In this podcast, we will identify ourselves as playing a role of a designer. Completion of what takes place is associated up to acquired standing. I will choose to focus on tall kneeling for longer duration. The essence of standing is one that is completed once and only necessary after tall kneeling. My belief is that not enough time is spent around tall kneeling. I am here to advise on it's significance. First time i've caught myself, I began to use tall kneeling to begin any related ...
In this podcast we are going to find out what truly has been learned per our supposed age. We will acknowledge ourselves by allowing the baby to master the environment. In other words, if you are looking for independence of our selves, it begins at 6 months per my opinion. I believe what takes precedence is independence. It means that for the next 6 months, I will try my hardest to make it as far as possible before finding out that I need mommy for food. What a fascinating topic of con...
In this podcast, we are summarizing all expectancies from 0-4 age. We have covered possible scenarios including medical conditions, normal metrics, and possibilities of increasing the ceiling effect by application of tasks deemed appropriate for the group in question. We have identified the difference between a patient and client. We have labeled and defined each to our understanding and how to approach moving forward with us in hopes of raising the ceiling effect of 'normal' via...
In this podcast, we start to accept acquired skill from past experiences 0-3months old. We have learned to add a challenge or two. We have also allowed ourselves to become more of facilitators by providing tummy time activities while monitoring and keeping track of duration in each position. We identified 3 positions to train him/her in: on their back, on their stomach, and sitting. We have identified possible markers that leads us to seek answers from your local MD, and have identified the c...
In this podcast, we will focus on the expected position of choice: tummy time. It is in the 3rd month, when the idea of tummy time takes on the most important role. Our job is simplified to gathering data via a schedule. How much time spent: 1) on our backs, 2) tummy time, 3) sitting. I am going to argue against any added challenge of stimulus because we want to promote independence in a position before adding a challenge. For example, if you have a hard time ascending stairs, it is no...
In this podcast, we learned about what to expect coming. For example, we should expect the baby to tolerate sitting positions. We also described the bonus round of handling of objects while in sitting position. This will allow him/her to accept dynamic stability which is described as the ability to remain seated while reaching or holding unto objects. Remember, I am here to add a challenge or two of within the expected time frame and completion of other skills. Goal: Improved co...
Up to this point, all risks have been identified. We have covered our target population and now we are going to establish task-related activities. It is required to watch prior episodes in order for me to recognize who is listening. I assume that those listeners today have babies without any medical condition. In other words, this approach will allow us to perfect the normal expectations based on age group. This podcast will explain what to expect from a new-born up to age 2 months. We...
In this episode, I try to expose all data available in the topic of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. We will identify risk and management of risk by using supervision, a scheduler related to duration in certain positions. We will learn mechanisms to avoid such event from occurring. If you are capable of accepting this point of view, and agree to establish risk-measures to minimize exposure to the condition, you are in the right place and you get to move on to our next episodes.
In this podcast, we identify the differences in thinking of a typical individual that ends up as my patient vs. the new approach that you and I will be taking on. For example, most parents have to rely on coaches for success. What if we take control from birth so that by the time we surrender to coaches, the fundamentals will be engraved and from that point on, it turns into 'fine-tuning' which in that case, we will rely on attendance rather than beliefs or styles of playing a certain ...
In this brief podcast, we become familiar with two important beliefs. One belief gives explanation to events and the other emphasizes the importance of environments as an 'arena' to practice and perfect around. I am a believer of the environment having a greater impact than genetic make-up. I believe in this theory because over time, I have learned to recognize 'wasted talent'. This premise leads me to belief than even though there is strong evidence of genetic components, the environm...
If you are looking to make a difference in your baby becoming an athlete one day, you are in the right place. I choose this topic to begin my series of podcast because I've identified the lack of information available today that supports my idea that training begins as early as birth. My role in this podcast is to be one of a performance enhancement specialist. My background extends back 18 years. At the age of 37, I have spent half on my life involved with health, fitness, and well-b...
In this podcast, we identify steps most commonly missed due to inability to recognize it's importance until later ages. This podcast will focus on the importance of upper extremity dissociation of lower extremities through trunk rotation. Trunk rotation should be isolated by the imposing muscles and not a by-product of other activities such as standing, and walking.
