Single Leg Balance — The Foundation of Everything 🏃‍♀️

Every time your foot hits the ground, you’re running on one leg. Master this and everything else gets easier.

Here’s why it matters:

Trains 30+ stabilizing muscles
Prevents ankle rolls & shin splints
Reduces shin splint risk dramatically
Builds the strength behind every stride

Start simple — 15 seconds, one leg. Then progress to 30+. Crane pose. Warrior 3. The gains stack fast.

Want more exercises like this? Follow along for weekly strength & mobility tips designed specifically for runners. 💪

Save this post and come back to it when you need motivation.

MENTAL PERFORMANCE COACH

Matt coaches, girls 🥍 lacrosse for Barrington high school and is a mental performance coach

MENTAL PERFORMANCE- perform your best when it counts. ⚡️

Matt’s coaching mindset: humility, listening, asking great questions.

Find the joy in the process — control the controllables, not the scoreboard.

Stop demonizing pressure. Pressure = privilege. Train for it.

If you crush practice but choke in games: feel instead of think. Relax into it — the most dangerous athlete is the most relaxed.

Quick tips:
• Reconnect with why you play — make fun a priority.
• Focus on effort, process, fundamentals.
• Reframe pressure as opportunity, not threat.
• Practice body awareness (feel the moment).
• Build team communication and cohesion.

Favorite lines:
“I don’t know what I don’t know.”
“Find the joy in the process.”
“Pressure is what I train for.” / “Pressure is a privilege.”
“Feel instead of think.” — Sampson
“The most dangerous athlete is the most relaxed.” — Danielle

Who this is for: athletes who slay practice but struggle in competition, and anyone into mental performance & team culture.

TABLE TALK TUESDAYS

Table Talk Tuesdays are back in a BIG way with our host 🎙️ We talk all things girls in sport — first guest: Sampson.

Q: What would you tell your younger self as a coach or athlete?
A: The answer is the same:

➡️Know your VALUES — they keep you playing for the right reasons.

➡️Play BIG, take up space — girls and women need to be seen and heard.

➡️GREATNESS is about standing up for what you believe in, not how fast you run or how many wins you have.
