🎃 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗖𝗞 𝗢𝗥 𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧, 𝗥𝗨𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗥𝗦!

Most of you know me through sports performance, but some of you may not know I also write fiction.

While working on my latest Halloween short story, I decided I wanted to fully embrace the holiday this year. And what’s Halloween without handing out a few treats?

So, if you’re seeing this post, consider yourself brave enough to have rung my doorbell.

I just finished…

🎃 𝗗𝗢𝗡’𝗧 𝗥𝗨𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗢𝗔𝗞𝗦 🎃

A creepy little Halloween story written specifically for runners, where sometimes the hardest part of a run isn’t the distance.

It’s particularly fun if:

1) you’re a runner
2) you’re from Corpus Christi
3) or you just enjoy a good Halloween story.

And if you’re all three? 𝗝𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗣𝗢𝗧!
You’re the kid who just got a full-sized Butterfinger in the trick-or-treat bag.

If you enjoy your treat, I’d love for you to follow my Chad Peters Author page and share this with a running friend. There’s plenty of candy to go around.

Happy Halloween!

Coaches and parents, have you ever caught yourself saying, “Man, I wish we knew this stuff back when I was playing!”?

That’s exactly why I built Precision Performance Concepts.

And here’s something to think about. Your kids will probably be saying the exact same thing about the next generation of athletes.

Sports science is moving incredibly fast. The concepts, training methods, injury management strategies, and performance techniques being used at the highest levels of professional and international sports are constantly evolving.

My goal is to bring that information to everyday coaches, parents, and athletes in a way that actually makes sense.

The same ideas influencing how elite athletes train, recover, move, and perform should be available to the 12-year-old soccer player, the high school coach, and the parent trying to understand what’s best for their kid.

That’s why I built this website, and why I continue to add to it.

Modern sports science. Explained simply. Available to everyone.

And the best part? It’s FREE.

Take a look around. You might find something that completely changes the way you think about training.

Sometimes you just have to lift stuff.
Random objects: rocks, logs, and sometimes stuff just sitting around at work.

Just to check if you’re still strong.

We yell "𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗟!" all season long.

But at some point, the realization has to click -your athlete doesn’t have an effort problem.

They have a hesitation problem.

You can see it in their eyes. They know what is coming. They can feel the play developing.

They just can’t quite... 𝗚𝗢.

And that little delay is one of the biggest performance metrics in sports.

We spend a ton of time measuring speed, strength, power, vertical jump, and all the things that are easy to test.

But how quickly can an athlete recognize what is about to happen and act on it?

That hesitation matters more than almost all of the other metrics.

⚽ Here’s a little insight into why kids hesitate in soccer, and one simple way to start fixing it.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗞𝗶𝗱𝘀 𝗛𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗿 (𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗙𝗶𝘅 𝗜𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁)

Why are some kids consistently one step late? This is how to fix it. It’s not speed. It’s hesitation. And most of the time… it’s because they’re waiting their turn in a game that doesn’t have turns…

🏀 🏐 ⚽ 🏈 THE SPRAINED ANKLE

Probably one of the most common injuries in all of sports.

If you’ve spent any amount of time around athletes, you’ve dealt with this one. It can affect a practice, a tournament, a season — and sometimes linger a whole lot longer than anyone expected.

I’ve probably written 50 different versions of ankle-sprain information over the years.

But I wanted one that looked at this incredibly common injury through a modern sports-performance lens — not just ice it, wrap it, rest it and wait.

What exactly happened to the ligament?

Why can an ankle feel “healed” but still not move or react normally?

Why do some athletes keep rolling the same ankle again?

And what should the progression actually look like from injury → movement → stability → loading → return to play?

Nothing revolutionary here. Just a better, updated explanation of something all of us in sports see constantly.

If you’re a coach, athletic trainer, parent, athlete or clinician, this might be a useful little refresher to keep in your arsenal — and an easy one to share with athletes and parents when you need it.

Precision Performance Concepts

Keeping athletes, parents and coaches modern.

It’s one of the most basic and best-understood injuries. It’s also one of the most over-iced, over-rested, under-rehabbed, and flat-out misunderstood.
