Game Ready’s High Performance Director, Sean Barger, brings more than a decade of experience helping athletes perform, recover, and return to play. He has worked with professional, college, high school, middle school, and youth athletes, supporting in-season performance, managing the wear and tear of competition, and helping athletes navigate the return-to-play process.
Sean works closely with the medical staff at Game Ready, as well as athletes’ outside providers, to help make the recovery process as smooth and effective as possible.
Here’s a look at an in-season speed and recovery session with a football athlete managing muscle pulls. The goal was to adjust the session to how the athlete was feeling, build confidence, and keep the work pain-free. The athlete moved well through each rep and hit personal records despite the challenges of the season.
