@fitsoccerqueen @JeremyFrisch Wait, what? Too fun? What is wrong with people

@JeremyFrisch Truly sad those are still comments we get as coaches . I had a handful quit my camp because it was fun and not serious enough.

Parent:
"There's no way kids just playing and having fun can develop real athleticism."
Me:
Well, I got news for you... Playing and having fun is exactly how kids develop athleticism, and if anyone tells you differently or tries to sell you on exercise and specific workouts for kids they don't know what the hell they are doing there doing other than stealing your money.
The magic is when the kids are engaged and having fun. When they're engaged, they will put in their best effort and develop skills without even realizing it. That's how you start long term athletic development.

@WSWayland @ZEvenEsh Great exercise. I use them in some of my warmups

Here’s another exercise that does two things well. Single arm RDLs, Glutes/hamstrings but also core/anti rotation plus they are approved by S&C OG @ZEvenEsh

@BrandonHerring0 Looks great 14 or not. You can see the focus and intent. Great work coach

DON’T TRUST THE PROCESS!
I haven’t worked with a 100m sprinter in over three years, but now @reeceprescod has dragged me out of retirement so I am back on track.
He has come home full of wisdom after experiencing various training systems around the world, maturing physically , mentally and professionally as an athlete.
Something that has been centre of our discussions has been the strange but commonly used phrase….
“Trust the process”. 🤮
Coaches repeat this all the time but ignore that trust is EARNT not just given.
The audacious thought that athletes should just follow a program and “believe” is ridiculous. In fact many coaches are offended by athletes questioning the process (fragile ego).
When you dig down, many coaches don’t really trust their own process. They HOPE performance will improve but couldn’t bank on it. Maybe that’s why their athletes doubts can fracture their self esteem.
If you can’t trust your own process, why should your athlete?
If you got this far please answer this… how do you build trust with your athletes?

10 things athletes should stop doing
1. Conditioning daily
2. Not resting between sprints
3. Maxing out on lifts every week
4. Squatting “ass to grass,” at all costs
5. Only so muscle isolated lifts
6. Worrying about “sport specificity.”
7. Mimicking sport movements in the weight room
8. “Balance,” training on wobble boards
9. Long distance (multiple miles) of running
10. Crunches & Russian twists for “core.”
