Perspective: Stress & Fundamentals
February 4, 2015
In this week's edition of MHSAA Perspective, John Johnson talks about the stress that specialization places on a young athlete's body, and how ways to relieve that stress actually work in combination with learning the fundamentals of a sport.
Now in its 10th season, the radio commentary MHSAA Perspective – presented by the Michigan Army National Guard – airs on over 80 radio stations and audio outlets across the state, generally during the local broadcasts of high school games. The program runs for 30 weeks through the end of the winter sports season.
