How This Works

Everything you need to know to start reviewing. Takes 5 minutes to read.

The Big Picture

We scraped 5,700+ articles, videos, and courses from the top baseball S&C minds — Cressey, Driveline, RPP, Reinold, Tread Athletics, VeloU, and others. Then we used AI to extract 14,400 programming rules from that content.

These are things like "IF an athlete is in-season, THEN reduce deadlift volume by 30%" or "IF a pitcher has limited hip internal rotation, THEN prioritize half-kneeling cable lifts."

The AI can extract rules, but it can't tell which ones are actually good for BRX athletes. That's your job.

The 5 Tabs

1. Rules Review (Start Here)

This is where you'll spend most of your time.

1. Pick a domain — click one of the pills across the top (Exercise Selection, Load Management, etc.)
2. Read the card — each one shows a rule in plain English:
   • "The industry says:" — the condition (when does this apply?)
   • "BRX should:" — the action (what should you do?)
3. Make a call:
   • Agree — This rule is solid. BRX should follow it.
   • Modify — The idea is right but needs a BRX-specific twist. You'll get text boxes to rewrite it.
   • Disagree — Wrong, irrelevant, or not how BRX operates. Kill it.
4. It auto-advances to the next rule. Keep going.

2. Contradictions

Sometimes two respected sources disagree. Cressey says one thing about in-season volume, VeloU says the opposite. There are about 30 of these.

1. Each card shows 2+ conflicting rules side-by-side
2. Click the one you think is right, then hit "Pick Winner"
3. Or hit "Write BRX Rule" if neither is quite right — type what BRX actually does

3. Exercise Tags

There are 4 biomechanical dimensions that AI can't fill — they need hands-on expertise:

• Cervical Spine Demand — How much does this exercise load the neck?
• Rib Cage Interaction — Expansion, compression, rotation?
• Muscle Dominance Bias — Quad-dominant, hip-dominant, push, pull, rotational?
• Fascial Line Involvement — Which fascial line is primarily loaded?

One exercise at a time, ~55 total. Pick the best chip for each dimension, save, move on. Skip anything you're not sure about.

4. Source Tiers

When two rules conflict, the system needs to know whose opinion wins. This table ranks the 14 content sources we pulled from:

Tier	Sources	What it means
1	Cressey In-Service, SSS, Reinold FST	Gold standard. Wins conflicts.
2	Driveline Edu, Cressey Blog, Driveline Vimeo	High quality, slightly less depth.
3	Driveline Blog, RPP, Tread, YouTube Cressey	Solid but less specific.
4	VeloU, YouTube Driveline/Tread	Supplementary. Never overrides higher tiers.

We've pre-filled these. Adjust any that feel wrong, hit Save.

5. Dashboard

Shows your progress — rules reviewed, domains completed, recent activity. Check it when you want to see where you stand.

Suggested Workflow

Session 1 (with Brooks, ~20 min)

• Open the Rules tab
• Click "Exercise Selection" (biggest domain, 105 rules)
• Work through 20-30 rules together to calibrate
• Quick pass on Source Tiers — confirm or adjust

Sessions 2-6 (solo, 15-20 min each)

• Pick a domain, work through it
• When you finish a domain, the pill turns green
• Hit some contradictions when you want variety
• Exercise Tags when you want something quick and different

Target

Clear all 300 rules + 30 contradictions + 55 exercises over ~2 weeks. That's roughly 15-20 minutes, 5-6 times. After batch 1, we can load more.

What Happens After

Every rule you approve or modify feeds the rule engine. When the program writer runs for a specific athlete, it'll say:

"This 16-year-old RHP is in off-season with limited hip IR — here are the exercises and programming parameters the industry AND Jordan agree on."

Your rejections are just as valuable — they tell the system what NOT to do.
