The real risk to kids isnβt strength training. The risk is unprepared bodies being exposed to high forces in sport. Sprint. Jump. Change direction. Land. Those are strength demands whether we train them or not. Just prepare kids for what sport will ask of them.

Nipped under 17 tonight - first 5k for ages, bit too cautious early on but wanted to still be moving well come the end. Be nice to find a couple more over the next month or two. Garmin still saying 17:45 predicted 5k π
