Ryan Orr is a MiLB Strength and Conditioning Coach in the Los Angeles Angels organization. He played NAIA baseball and shoulder injuries derailed his career which led him to wanting to pursue a job where he could help people avoid the same problems he faced as an athlete. He received his masters degree from the University of Arkansas where he helped out with the Men's Basketball team. While at Arkansas, he was also volunteering with the Northwest Arkansas Naturals, a Double-A Affiliate of the Kansas City Royals. After spending some time as the Interim Head Strength Coach for the Men's Basketball team, he took a full time job with the LA Angels. In this episode, we dive deep into Ryan's background and how sports influenced his life growing up. We talk about some of the major similarities and differences between the college setting and the professional setting as well as the similarities and differences of baseball and basketball. Finally, we get into the characteristics that high performers share opposed to non-high performers and he talks about his stance on bench press for baseball players.
