Episode THE Most Overlooked (Natural) PED Cover

THE Most Overlooked (Natural) PED

This episode dives into the growing problem of baseball arm injuries in baseball and highlights the often-overlooked role of sleep in both performance and recovery. Edwin breaks down alarming injury trends and introduces a holistic approach to keeping athletes healthy—starting with sleep, then layering in nutrition, workload management, and arm care. You’ll also hear practical, actionable tips for improving sleep quality so athletes can recover better, prevent injuries, and perform at their best. Takeaways 25% of 16U kids have arm injuries. 57% of UCL injuries occur in teenagers. 43% of baseball players report arm pain after throwing. Health is the foundation of athletic performance. Sleep, nutrition, and routine are crucial for athletes. Teenagers need 8 to 10 hours of sleep. Quality of sleep significantly impacts performance. Not sleeping enough doubles the risk of injury. Naps should be limited to 15-20 minutes. Setting a bedtime alarm can improve sleep hygiene.

How to Get Recruited: Development vs. Exposure

Everyone in baseball talks about exposure. Travel tournaments, endless showcases, chasing scouts… families believe showing up is the ticket. But here’s the truth: exposure without development can hurt you. In this episode, Dr. Edwin Porras breaks down why most athletes aren’t Arch Manning — and why that’s actually good news. Arch didn’t need random tournaments to get noticed. Scouts went to him because his name and his talent created a spotlight worth chasing. For most athletes, the spotlight comes after you build undeniable strength, health, and skill. 👉 We’ll talk about: * Why “exposure” can backfire and make you white noise to scouts * The real opportunity cost of nonstop games (missed training, skill work, and rest) * How development builds the spotlight that scouts can’t ignore * Analogies from Arch Manning, Adele, Paris Hilton, and In-N-Out (yes, really) that prove the point ⚾ If you’re a baseball parent or athlete under 16, this is your wake-up call: Don’t chase exposure before you build the foundation. Become undeniable. That’s how you get found. 📲 Learn more about training with PRO Athlete Physical Therapy (Denver’s home for baseball health and performance): 👉 proathletept.com
