14 yo dd has started complaining about back soreness recently. She describes it as a tightness in her lower back which sounds like the same kind of back tightness I routinely live with but nobody expects me to pitch in a tourney next weekend. She's been on good teams the last two years with deep pitching rotations so I don't believe this to be a case of being overpitched, although the #1 pitcher on her team last year had back soreness but kept on pitching.
I'm not asking for medical advice, we have appointments set with a message therapist and doc. I just know this is a fairly common problem among pitchers and was wondering what stretching & strenght training advice or website links might be out there. I subscribe to Hillhouse's newsletters and seem to recall an article he did on this topic but I can't seem to find it now.
thanks,
Dusty
