Anaconda Launches Shoulder Brace for Athletes Training Through Discomfort
Anaconda, the athletic gear brand built by founder Luke Kilcoyne after a serious training injury left him without reliable support equipment, has released the Anaconda Shoulder Brace — a compression-based support designed for athletes who train through shoulder discomfort rather than sit out. The brace uses 3D knitted compression, a detachable gel pad for impact absorption, and a dual-strap fastening system to keep the support locked in place during overhead lifts, dynamic movements, and high-impact training. It retails for $39.95 and is available in sizes S through XXL. Shoulder injuries are one of the most common setbacks for active athletes across multiple disciplines. In CrossFit and weightlifting populations, shoulder injuries account for 6.7%-40.6% of all reported injuries, with overhead pressing, snatches, and dynamic pull-up movements posing the highest risk. A separate scoping review of weight-training athletes found shoulder injuries among the most frequently reported across powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, and bodybuilding. For athletes who depend on upper-body mobility — whether pressing a barbell, throwing a training partner, or swinging a racket — the shoulder joint absorbs repeated stress that accumulates over months and years of training. "After tearing my ACL and MCL, I tried every brace I could find, but none held up during training," said Luke Kilcoyne, Founder of Anaconda. "We trained in every version. If it slid, we fixed it. If it pinched, we adjusted the design." That same development approach — building prototypes, testing them through weeks of real-world training sessions, and iterating until they hold up under high-intensity use — is what Anaconda applied to the shoulder brace. How the Anaconda Shoulder Brace Works The Anaconda Shoulder Brace combines three support systems: 3D Knitted Compression: The brace molds to the shoulder's shape through a compression knit structure. This applies consistent pressure around the joint, supporting stability while maintaining the range of motion athletes need for overhead movements, pressing, and rotational work. Detachable Gel Pad: A removable gel pad sits over the shoulder to absorb shock from unexpected impacts — hard landings, training collisions, or heavy barbell contact during pressing movements. Athletes can remove the pad for lighter training sessions where impact protection isn't needed. Dual-Strap Fastening System: Two adjustable straps keep the brace locked in position throughout a training session. This addresses one of the most common complaints about shoulder supports: they shift, loosen, or bunch up during dynamic movement, making them useless when you need them most. The brace fits either shoulder and is made from polyester, nylon, and spandex — the same material blend Anaconda uses across its 3D knitted brace line. It's machine-washable on a normal cycle, with air-drying. Designed for Active Training, Not Just Recovery Most shoulder braces on the market are designed for post-surgical recovery or light daily wear. They restrict movement, use rigid structures, and aren't designed to withstand the forces of intense training. Anaconda developed this brace with a different set of demands in mind. "We don't release anything unless it's proven in real training. Every product goes through rigorous use before it reaches athletes," said Luke Kilcoyne, Founder of Anaconda. The company's product line grew out of Kilcoyne's own experience. He suffered a torn ACL and MCL while training overseas — an injury that ended his ability to train and sparked the idea for Anaconda. The brand now offers 12 brace and support products covering knees, shoulders, elbows, wrists, ankles, back, calves, and thighs — all designed for athletes who need support that holds up under real training conditions. Who the Shoulder Brace Is For The Anaconda Shoulder Brace targets athletes in three primary categories: Strength and Fitness Athletes — Lifters, CrossFit competitors, and functional fitness athletes who perform overhead pressing, bench pressing, and Olympic lifts that load the shoulder joint under heavy weight. Research shows shoulder injuries account for up to 46% of injuries in CrossFit and weightlifting populations, with Olympic weightlifting exercises associated with 45% of new shoulder injuries in training environments. Combat Sports and Contact Athletes — Grapplers, wrestlers, and contact sport athletes who deal with repeated shoulder stress from throws, takedowns, and ground work. A 2024 study of 881 athletes found that the shoulders were the second-most commonly injured body region, accounting for 13% of all reported injuries. Athletes Returning From Injury — Competitors working back from shoulder strains, minor separations, or bursitis who need compression support and impact protection while rebuilding confidence in the joint. Sports medicine research has shown that compression braces can improve proprioceptive awareness — an athlete's sense of joint position — by stimulating cutaneous mechanoreceptors, which helps stabilize the shoulder during movement and reduces the risk of reinjury. Pricing and Availability The Anaconda Shoulder Brace is available now at anacondaperformance.com. Price: $39.95 Sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL Fit: Universal — fits either shoulder Shipping: Orders fulfilled within 24 hours. US delivery in 3-7 business days. UK delivery in 24-48 hours. Ships to the US, Canada, Australia, the UK, and Europe. Guarantee: 30-day return and exchange guarantee "Our goal is to help athletes train smarter and stay consistent. Reliable gear is part of that process," said Luke Kilcoyne, Founder of Anaconda. About Anaconda Anaconda is an athletic gear brand founded by Luke Kilcoyne after a serious training injury while training overseas. The company develops braces, supports, and apparel designed for strength training, fitness, active lifestyles, and combat sports. Every product is tested in real training environments — including weeks of high-intensity sessions — before release. The brand's mission: "To help athletes do what they love and perform at their best." For more information, please refer to the contact details below.

Youth Baseball Pitch Counts & Arm Soreness: Readiness Strategy Book Released
VeloRESET has announced the release of Beyond Pitch Counts, a new book and online resource that addresses growing concerns among parents and coaches that traditional pitch count guidelines may not fully explain arm soreness, fatigue and performance inconsistency in young baseball players. More details can be found at https://www.veloreset.com/book In youth baseball in the US, game pitch counts have long been used as a primary safeguard for arm health, but new research and field experience indicate that the total workload must be considered, including bullpen sessions, warm-ups, defensive throws, showcase events, condensed tournament play and more. Plus, physical changes during adolescence can further affect coordination, recovery patterns and perceived arm stress. That’s why VeloRESET, a youth pitching education platform, is pleased to be contributing to this evolving conversation by introducing a new readiness-based decision-making model for families and coaches in Beyond Pitch Counts. Their framework encourages coaches and parents alike to evaluate pitching decisions within a broader context that includes recovery status, recent throwing history, growth-related changes and observable fatigue signals. This approach specifically aims to address what they call the ‘hidden workload’ — accumulated physical stress that is not reflected in official pitch counts. By recognizing this broader workload, parents and coaches may better understand why two young athletes with similar pitch totals can experience different recovery outcomes. To rectify this issue, VeloRESET’s new book offers a detailed but accessible guide designed to help parents make the right youth pitching decisions during the competitive season. Rather than prescribing rigid programs, the book both explains the 'why' of arm soreness and pitching issues and teaches readers 'how' to approach it, introducing practical tools that will support clearer decision-making. As such, the book also comes with an additional Decision Companion resource, which includes a Weekly Workload Template, a Readiness Spectrum Visual, a Growth Phase Brief and an educational podcast that expands on workload management principles. Plus, VeloRESET offer extra insights regularly on their YouTube, which can be accessed at https://www.youtube.com/@VeloRESET VeloRESET’s materials are designed to help families determine when additional rest may be appropriate, when workloads can be maintained, and when adjustments may support more consistent recovery. Their model also emphasizes that post-game soreness does not automatically indicate injury and that recovery timelines can vary considerably during developmental stages. Given that more youth sports organizations, coaches and families are seeking balanced approaches to athlete development, Joey Myers, the founder of VeloRESET and the author of Beyond Pitch Counts, believes readiness-based frameworks are set to become one of the most important tools alongside existing pitch count guidelines.

Performance Fishing Apparel: Breathable, Moisture-Wicking Angler Clothing Launch
Hook N Worm has announced the launch of a new line of fishing apparel and accessories designed for anglers who spend long hours on the water. Built for both freshwater and saltwater conditions, the collection includes performance shirts, hoodies, hats, bags, and everyday essentials for time on the boat, the bank, and everything in between. More information is available at https://www.hooknworm.com/ . As recreational fishing participation continues to grow across the United States, many and most anglers are seeking performance-driven apparel that transitions seamlessly from early morning casts to post-trip gatherings. Durable construction, moisture management, and reliable sun protection are increasingly becoming essential features rather than optional upgrades. Hook N Worm developed its lineup with those demands in mind. The collection includes lightweight, durable pieces designed to hold their fit and appearance through boat rides, shoreline hikes, and exposure to sun and salt spray. Many items are designed to move easily from a day outdoors to casual, off-water wear without sacrificing quality. The Endurance Collection anchors the release, engineered specifically for anglers who continue fishing when wind picks up, temperatures shift, and conditions turn unpredictable. The brand also supports cold-weather anglers with apparel suitable for late-season and ice fishing conditions. A Hook N Worm representative explained the practical origin of the designs: “Every item we make comes from real time spent fishing New England waters. Every piece of apparel and accessory is designed with the angler lifestyle in mind — comfort, durability, and authenticity drive every decision we make.” Hook N Worm is a family-owned fishing apparel and lifestyle brand based in New England. The company was founded by Mike Zitani, a lifelong bass fisherman from East Hartford, after decades spent fishing regional lakes, ponds, and rivers. Anglers interested in performance-driven apparel built by fishermen can explore the full collection at https://www.hooknworm.com/ .

Inside the Wimbledon Experience for Debenture Ticket Holders
Wimbledon Debenture Tickets is the UK’s number one supplier of secure debenture seating. It has been organising exclusive experiences at The Championships since 2003 as a well-regarded and knowledgeable team that offers access to guaranteed ticketing on Centre Court and No. 1 Court. Despite the rapid growth in demand for debenture seats, many tennis fans are unsure how debenture tickets work, what to expect on the day, or why attending as a debenture ticket holder is seen as the ultimate in premium viewing at this prestigious sporting event. The company has created a step-by-step run-through of what a visit to Wimbledon entails for those who may not have been to the tournament before, or who have only previously attended as general ticket holders by applying to the ballot or waiting in the queue. What To Do on Arrival at Wimbledon as a Debenture Ticket Holder Outside of the gates, the excitement during the two weeks of the tournament is palpable, with fans gathering early in the morning and TV crews and commentators setting up for a day of reporting. Pre-arrival is, though, often perceived as one of the most challenging aspects of a day at Wimbledon, with long queues and often hot summer weather given The Championships’ timing, but debenture ticket holders have a very different experience. Attendees receive a preloaded Oyster card to cover a return journey with public transport from central London to Wimbledon, and can make their way to an exclusive debenture holder’s entrance that provides direct access to the venue. From here, guests are welcome to stroll around the grounds to get their bearings, with the characteristic traditional tennis whites, Pimm’s, sun hats, and, of course, strawberries and cream, with vending stands dotted throughout. Depending on the timing of the day's major matches, visitors often like to browse the pristine landscaping for which the All England Lawn Tennis Club is known. Debenture ticket holders are also able to access most of the outside courts, The Hill, and even practice areas, offering the opportunity to see future stars up close as they warm up. Many tennis spectators comment on their enjoyment of the outside courts, which are slightly smaller and more intimate than Centre Court and No. 1 Court. This sets the tone for the day with a more relaxed pace before heading to the primary show courts for the main event. Debenture Seating Arrangements for Wimbledon Attendees Each debenture ticket allocates a specific seat to the holder, which is reserved for their sole use for the entire day of their choice. The benefits include guaranteed seating and having prime viewing over these iconic courts, which have been home to some of the most talked-about showdowns in the sport’s history, featuring greats like Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Serena Williams. For many, Wimbledon feels like a sporting pilgrimage, and the quiet anticipation of the action to come and the years of tradition and heritage the tournament embodies are all part of the atmosphere. It is important that spectators take their seats before play begins and stay there during the match to avoid disrupting the flow of the game. However, the highly experienced Wimbledon ushers and staff will ensure that announcements are made in ample time for guests to find their designated spot. Prospective guests interested in choosing their debenture seats can review full layouts of both Centre Court and No. 1 Court in advance and assess the pricing options by seating tier and budget to ensure they know where they will be seated, although all debenture seats offer exceptional views. Dining and Refreshments for Debenture Ticket Wimbledon Attendees The fine-dining and access to pre-bookable, exclusive restaurants and champagne bars are further advantages of attending Wimbledon as a debenture ticket holder, and seating providers can assist with making reservations before a scheduled visit. There is also a selection of pre-bookable restaurants, which the team at Wimbledon Debenture Tickets can book on your behalf, subject to availability. Guests may also wish to drop into the Centre Court restaurants and bars. These remain exclusive to debenture ticket holders, although they do not require a pre-booked table. The Courtside Brasserie is an à la carte lunch restaurant, The Terrace is self-service, and The Gallery is a bar with wonderful views over the courts and London beyond. Visitors who would like to use one of the No. 1 Court restaurants can also choose from The Veranda, with an Italian-style menu; The Lounge, a further self-service option; and the No. 1 Bar, serving sushi and light lunches. Finishing a Memorable Day at Wimbledon After the Final Sets When the evening draws in on The Championships, debenture ticket holders can relax on the lawns, browse the Wimbledon shop or watch the sunset overhead, with many taking advantage of the sociable air in the bars to discuss the day’s matches before returning to their London hotel. The grounds remain open until later in the day, and first-time guests can visit the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum and purchase official merchandise, or watch the players practising on the outside courts, making the most of the cooler evening temperatures. How Wimbledon Debenture Seating Differs From General Entry or Grounds Passes Debenture tickets are ideal for passionate tennis fans who want a secure seat without the risk of standing in a long queue only to be left disappointed, and for avid spectators who want an immersive Wimbledon experience. For those looking to purchase Wimbledon debenture tickets , this option guarantees seats on Centre Court or No. 1 Court. Attendees can anticipate a luxurious, comfortable, and traditionally British day, with access to private, reserved facilities and lounges designed to blend world-class sport with premium hospitality. While debenture holders are welcome to browse much of the grounds and outside courts, many choose to enjoy the quieter atmosphere and privacy of the debenture experience, while arriving early to see the splendour of the venue before the crowds arrive is often recommended.

Pickleball NVZ has announced the launch of Pickle & Pink, introducing a new way for women to engage with and shop for the sport. The Florida-based pickleball retailer aims to redefine their online shopping experience by blending fashion-forward style, curated collections, and innovative try-on technology. The brand aims to disrupt the traditional experience of pickleball retail: overuse of product grids, technical specifications, and warehouse-style listings that prioritize presentation efficiency over a true shopping experience. Pickle & Pink aims to disrupt the experience by allowing customers to step into a styled digital “room” where items are curated by mood, moment, and aesthetic, creating a virtual fashion boutique feeling as opposed to scrolling through a sporting goods store. With the Pickle & Pink experience, customers can explore themed edits, such as bestie gift ideas, girls’ trip favorites, soft pastel paddle selections, and more. Each collection is styled to reflect the tastes of the growing community of women who see pickleball as not just a sport, but also a social and expressive lifestyle. The launch also introduces an innovative virtual try-on clothing tool that allows shoppers to upload their own photo and preview how selected outfits look on them before purchasing. This can help remove the uncertainty and hesitation around fit and styling that can be a barrier to shopping online. With a personalized preview of how customers might look in their chosen outfit, they can shop with greater confidence. As pickleball continues ot attract a new generation of players, particularly fashion-conscious women between the ages of 25 and 55 who value style as well as performance, the demand for apparel and accessories that match their tastes is growing with them. As is the need for lifestyle-focused retail experiences like Pickle & Pink.

Funday Golf Launches to Reshape Golf Culture
After playing more than 100 golf courses in a single year, entrepreneur Emily Yang noticed something that stayed with her long after the final round: the players on those courses were changing, but the gear was not. Younger, more diverse, and increasingly expressive golfers were showing up to the sport with a sense of individuality that the traditional golf industry had not yet found a way to reflect. That observation became the foundation for Funday Golf, a Los Angeles-based golf lifestyle brand built around personality, humor, and self-expression on the course. A Personal Reset That Became a Business Mission The story behind Funday Golf is inseparable from the personal journey of its founder. Emily Yang, a first-generation immigrant and entrepreneur, went through a significant life transition that included leaving her career and going through a divorce. Rather than retreating from that period of uncertainty, she leaned into something that brought her genuine joy: golf. Over the course of one year, Yang played more than 100 golf courses and documented the experience online, sharing her rounds, observations, and evolving relationship with the game with a growing audience. What began as a personal reset became an extended, immersive study of golf culture from the perspective of an everyday player rather than an industry insider. Closing the Gap Between Players and Products Golf participation in the United States has grown steadily over the past several years, with the sport attracting a broader and younger demographic than at any previous point in its modern history. According to the National Golf Foundation, off-course participation, including simulator facilities, driving ranges, and entertainment venues, has expanded the total golf audience significantly, with millions of new players entering the game who bring different expectations about what the sport should feel like. Funday Golf positions itself at the intersection of that cultural shift and the traditional golf market. Where legacy brands have historically emphasized performance metrics, heritage, and technical specifications, Funday Golf leads with character. The brand's product design reflects a deliberate choice to treat golf accessories as a form of personal expression rather than purely functional equipment. The headcover collections available through the brand's online store illustrate this approach directly. The plush animal covers introduce a softness and playfulness that stands in contrast to the more restrained designs common in traditional golf retail. The Chinese water painting collection draws on artistic and cultural references that reflect Yang's own background as a first-generation immigrant. The golf course-inspired designs speak to the deep affection that serious golfers have for the courses they love, translating that sentiment into wearable, visible form. Built by a Golfer, Not a Boardroom One of the distinguishing characteristics of Funday Golf is the directness with which it communicates its origin. The brand's own language makes the point plainly: it was built by a golfer, not a boardroom. That framing is not incidental. It reflects a deliberate positioning choice that separates Funday Golf from larger, more institutionalized golf brands whose product decisions are shaped by committees, legacy considerations, and market research rather than lived experience on the course. The brand's current product lineup reflects that foundation. Driver covers are available at accessible price points, with several styles currently offered at reduced prices through the site's ongoing promotions. The full range of cover types, including options for woods, hybrids, and putters, ensures that golfers can build a consistent aesthetic across their bag if they choose to do so. Clothing items and gift cards round out the catalog, making the brand accessible to both committed golfers and those looking to introduce someone new to the sport. Expanding What Golf Can Look Like The cultural argument behind Funday Golf extends beyond product design. Yang has spoken openly about the role that representation and accessibility play in her vision for the brand. As a female founder and first-generation immigrant operating in an industry that has historically been dominated by a narrow demographic profile, she brings a perspective to golf that the sport has not always made room for. That perspective shapes not just what Funday Golf makes, but why it makes it. The brand is not simply trying to sell golf accessories in a new aesthetic register. It is making a broader argument about who golf is for and what the experience of playing should feel like. By designing products that reflect humor, cultural diversity, and individual personality, Funday Golf is contributing to a redefinition of the sport's identity that many players, particularly younger and more diverse ones, have been waiting for. A Brand for the Next Generation of Golfers Funday Golf does not position itself as a replacement for the traditions of golf. The sport's history, its etiquette, its connection to landscape and craft, these are things that Yang herself has developed a deep appreciation for over more than 100 rounds of play. What the brand is offering is an expansion of what golf culture can include, a widening of the tent rather than a tearing down of the structure. The golfers Funday Golf is designed for are not rejecting the game. They are embracing it with an enthusiasm that the traditional industry has not always known how to meet. They want to play well, but they also want their gear to reflect who they are. They want to take the sport seriously without taking themselves too seriously. They want golf to feel like theirs. About Funday Golf Funday Golf is a modern golf lifestyle brand founded by Emily Yang and based in Los Angeles, California. The brand was created after Yang played more than 100 golf courses in a single year, an experience that revealed a growing gap between the evolving culture of golf and the traditional aesthetic of the industry's products. Funday Golf designs headcovers, accessories, and lifestyle pieces that bring humor, personality, and individuality to the course, serving a new generation of golfers who want their gear to reflect who they are. The brand is available exclusively through its e-commerce platform and maintains an active community presence across social media. Funday Golf is built on the belief that golf should be taken seriously as a game, but that players should feel free to show up as their full selves.

Los Angeles Short-Term Office Space for the 2028 Olympics: Nina Steiner of Saxum West Launches a Series of Guides for Teams, Brands, and Media
Los Angeles knows how to get ready for a show. Lights go up. Crews move in. Brands plant flags. Producers, media teams, operators, and decision-makers start hunting for position. Not just on stage. On the ground. That is already beginning around the 2028 Olympics. And in a city this big, this spread out, and this unpredictable, one bad real estate decision can become a daily problem. Wrong neighborhood. Wrong commute. Wrong access. Wrong setup. Wrong lease. That is the opening Nina Steiner wants people to avoid. Steiner, a Senior Associate at Saxum West and the voice behind TenantRepLA, has launched a series of guides focused on one of the biggest practical questions businesses will face as Los Angeles moves toward LA28. Click here for Nina's Guides: https://tenantrepla.com/category/tenant-rep-blog/ Where should you put your people? For some groups, the answer will be Downtown Los Angeles. Close to the energy. Close to major venues. Close to the pulse around Crypto.com Arena, L.A. Live, and the corridor around 800 W Olympic Blvd. For others, it may be Inglewood, near SoFi Stadium. For others, it may be Burbank, Culver City, Santa Monica, or Sherman Oaks. Los Angeles is not one market. It is a map of moving parts. During an event of this scale, geography becomes strategy. That is the idea behind the series. Not generic market commentary. Not recycled leasing advice. Real guidance for real users entering a real city with real deadlines. The audience is wider than most people think. This is not just about sponsors with giant budgets. It is also about media teams, production crews, PR firms, technology vendors, hospitality groups, international operators, support staff, brand activations, and temporary headquarters. Fast-moving teams that need a place to work, meet, plan, store equipment, and stay close to the action. Some will need 500 square feet. Some will need 10,000. Some may need space for six to nine months. Others may need a shorter runway or a longer hold, depending on the assignment. What they will all have in common is this: They will not have time to learn Los Angeles the hard way. “Los Angeles can reward smart positioning and punish bad assumptions,” Nina Steiner said. “When companies come in from outside the market, they often underestimate how much location affects operations. A place can look right on paper and still be wrong in real life. The right space is not just about rent. It is about how the whole day works.” That is where Steiner’s guides come in. Each one is built to answer the kinds of questions people are already typing into search bars and AI platforms. Where should a company place a temporary headquarters during the 2028 Olympics? What part of Los Angeles makes the most sense for a media team? Should a group choose Downtown Los Angeles or Inglewood? What kind of short-term office works best for a brand, a production company, or an international team flying in for a defined mission? Those are not small questions. In Los Angeles, they shape everything that follows. A thirty-minute mistake can become a three-hour problem. A space that looks flexible online can fail under the weight of real operations. A prestigious address can be less valuable than fast access, parking, move-in readiness, and proximity to the right venue cluster. That is why Steiner is not treating this as a one-off article. She is building a series of guides. A continuing body of work. A practical field guide for people who need to make decisions before the city gets tighter, louder, and more expensive. The timing matters. The world does not wait until opening day to prepare for an Olympics. It moves in waves. Planning. Site visits. Vendor selection. Media strategy. Staffing. Logistics. Leasing. Then the rush. The companies that move early usually have better choices. The companies that move late usually inherit what is left. Steiner’s goal is to help people arrive earlier in the story. Through TenantRepLA, she has already been publishing educational content around Downtown Los Angeles, venue proximity, transportation pressure, and workspace strategy tied to LA28. Through Saxum West, she brings an advisory role grounded in the realities of tenant representation and market execution. Now she is pushing that message further. More search visibility. More distribution. More useful guidance in more places online. Because the next client may not be sitting in Los Angeles. They may be in New York. Or Dallas. Or London. Or Toronto. Or Tokyo. But they are all searching for the same thing: A foothold in Los Angeles before the rush begins. And in a city built on timing, that may be the most important move of all.

Through TenantRepLA, she publishes educational content focused on short-term office space, flexible workspace strategy, and location planning across Los Angeles.

Youth Pitcher Recovery Guide: Science-Based Arm Care Newsletter Announced
VeloRESET has introduced the VeloRESET Arm Lab Newsletter, a weekly resource designed to give parents of youth baseball pitchers something they are often missing: clear, science-based guidance they can trust. At a time when many families are left sorting through conflicting opinions and incomplete advice, the newsletter is intended to replace uncertainty with practical insight grounded in biomechanics and movement science. More information is available at https://www.veloreset.com/arm-lab-newsletter For many young pitchers, arm injuries do not begin with sudden pain. In most cases, the problem starts much earlier, developing quietly through faulty movement patterns that place stress on the elbow and shoulder over time. By the time a player begins to complain of discomfort or notices a drop in velocity, the underlying issue may have been building for weeks. Despite this, parents are often given very little support in learning how to recognize those early warning signs, and standard pitch counts alone rarely tell the full story of what a growing arm is actually enduring. That lack of reliable guidance can leave families in a difficult position. Parents frequently turn to coaches, trainers, and online forums in search of answers, only to encounter advice that varies widely from one source to the next. Instead of creating confidence, the result is often more confusion. The VeloRESET Arm Lab Newsletter was developed to address that gap directly, offering short, focused insights that help parents better understand the movement patterns contributing to arm stress. Each weekly issue centers on the mechanics that influence elbow and shoulder health, giving parents a clearer picture of what their child’s arm may be experiencing between games, practices, and bullpen sessions. Rather than overwhelming readers with equipment recommendations, complicated routines, or lengthy drill progressions, the newsletter delivers one simple, actionable takeaway that can be read in under 60 seconds. Additional details can be found at https://www.veloreset.com That practical approach reflects the experience that led to VeloRESET’s creation. Founder Joey Myers, a corrective exercise specialist and bestselling author, began searching for answers after watching his own son struggle with recurring shoulder pain that traditional arm care methods failed to resolve. Through biomechanics and movement science, he discovered that the real issue was not a lack of strength, but a compensated movement pattern. Once that pattern was corrected, the pain subsided, and his son’s confidence began to return. That experience continues to shape the newsletter’s mission today. As Myers explained, parents do not need more noise or more drills. What they need is clarity about what their pitcher’s arm is truly experiencing.
