Its sad but true that this type of thing actually goes on and in many cases athletes or clients are actually instructed to do this. Some people(trainers) think that doing exercise like this is "functional" or "sports specific." BULL! I have said it many times and will continue to, the only thing that is sports specific, is practicing a sport. Wrapping a band around your wrist and trying to throw a football will not improve you passing ability, and in fact will probably hinder it. Anyway, my point is people have been becoming great athletes for years, so an entirely new system is not needed, we just need to find what works best for each athlete using the methods that have been proven to work.
