Martinez Ca. -Repetitive stress injuries are the most common and frequent amongst todays throwing athletes. They become particularly scary when it is in the elbow. Immediately visions of  “Tommy Johns” surgery come to mind. Most who are ignorant of the potential career ending condition try to bear through it. A most unwise strategy. The smart seek proper medical diagnosis and help. It a lot of cases it is severe tendonitis. A treatable condition that takes the proper management and time. Time being the BIG factor.

Enter Brodie Eglite now entering his junior year at Alhambra High. He had to sit out the entire  freshman season due to severe elbow tendonitis. However he didnt just sit out. After his release from rehab he followed his older brother (Jordan SFSU 92mph) to Gamespeed for post rehab “Return to Play” conditioning.

Brodie came in three days a week  and did all the tedious work that is required to fully recover from that sort of injury. He built his body from the ground up. He  worked on his own and did the 2016-17 Top Gun program in the off season. A quiet kid who never complained, just stayed focused put his head down and did the work. Three weeks ago after a full highschool season at a Cal Berkeley workout and he hit a velocity of 87mph!! Prior to his freshman year he was in the high 70’s. 

Congrats Brodie for staying dedicated to your goal.
