As
a special offer to new visitors to the Complete
Athlete,
we're offering a FREE subscription to our Members-Only
eNews.
As you may know, Donnie
Watson and Jen Wells of the Complete Athlete are now working closely
with area players to accelerate true throwing/performance
potential while giving specific instruction in
the mechanics and training for injury prevention.
It's basically the difference between being
prepared or repaired for many promising athletes.
As part of that effort, we would like to issue
a special invitation to you to join our new Complete
Athlete Performance eNews.
To make our eNews into a tool you can use to
better your performance on and off the field,
we are compiling a special series of informative
introductory, and follow-up articles and online
trainings. It will be the kind of in-depth coaching,
performance, nutrition and mental/emotional instruction
only our Members receive . You cannot find this
caliber of pitcher and position-player info elsewhere
online, and it will come directly to your inbox
free of charge.
To get your copy of our next issue, simply fill
in the brief form below to subscribe. Remember
it's free, and you may safely unsubscribe at
any time. Your information is secure and will
not be sold to or shared with any third parties.
We receive a lot of correspondance
from Parents and Players who have seen changes
in performance, attitudes and understanding
of the game following Complete Athlete Symposiums,
Pitcher-Prep programs and individual instruction.
Here are some recent
samples:

The bulk of my career has been dedicated to
improving the health and performance of athletes
of all ages as a medical professional and as
an advocate for guidelines that promote injury
prevention in all sports. Injuries in baseball
and softball, in spite of great medical advances
and mandates performance guidelines that err
on the side of safety, continue to rise.
I support the effort of The Complete Athlete,
as a leading voice in a national movement, to
teach players, parents, and coaches a science
based approach to develop safe, efficient and
effective performance protocols for pitchers
of all ages. The Andrews Institute is always
available to support you as a player, parent,
or coach to make informed choices to reach your
fullest potential.

Jen & Donnie,
Just wanted to drop you a quick note about the
symposium held in Fort Worth last weekend.
WOW!!! does not capture the Impact the weekend
made on my
16 yr. old son Clay, who is an outfielder. As
you know my older son Drew, a
college pitcher, had attended two of your symposiums
over the past
few years. Clay left with more information, drills,
tools and Motivation to improve his performance
on the field than I ever expected.
The greatest feeling for a concerned parent
is knowing everything you are teaching meets
the approval of Sports Medicine Surgeons, Physical
Therapists, Trainers, and is backed with scientific
research (Not Opinion).
Thank you Both in your Mission developing my
son and other into truly Complete Athletes. If
Clay never plays beyond High School Baseball,
the information learned
in the Symposium will sever him well as he Competes
in All areas of Life!
Wishing you Complete-Success in 2009.

Donnie Watson helped Taylor with mental and
physical growth through conditioning and core
strength. As parents, we appreciated the goal
of health-first in his development.

My two sons, Kevin (14) and Kyle (12), had a
blast at the last Complete Athlete Pitching Symposium
and Clinic in Gulf Breeze, Florida. This program
is an absolute must for every youth baseball
or softball pitcher that aims at taking their
game to the next level.
I really like how you set the kids down in a
classroom setting, and present the four performance
absolutes in depth, including real life examples
of success and failure. You keep it interesting
and easy to understand, while challenging the
kids to imagine their pitching performance as
a table and the four absolutes (proper biomechanics,
strength and conditioning, nutrition, and the
mental game) as the four legs of the table. The
table will fail under pressure if one of the
four legs is weak.
The dynamic warm-up alone was worth the price
of the clinic. We have introduced it to both
of my son’s baseball teams. The on-field
throwing sessions were a lot of fun and very
instructive. My two sons loved the throwing drills,
the introduction to strength and conditioning
training, and of course the bullpen sessions
with the instructors / coaches.
Kevin and Kyle have stepped up their game since
they started working with you last fall. They
have made big improvements in their approach
to the game of baseball by implementing the dynamic
warm up and focusing on the four absolutes. They
both threw no-hit shutouts yesterday in the ASP
Marucci Wood Bat Classic in Pace / Pensacola,
Florida. Kevin’s fastball was low to mid
80’s and he had great command of his curveball
and change up. Kyle’s fastball was low
70’s and he kept the ball down and hit
his spots well. I liked their presence and confidence
on the mound, and the way they challenge hitters
and controlled their pitch counts.
Thanks for all of the valuable information and
instruction, and we look forward to working with
you at the next Complete Athlete Pitching Symposium
and Clinic.
