What is your number 1 coaching concern?

“If in doubt, do no harm”

On Tuesday I asked a group of coaches from different sports what their main concern was in regards to strength training.  It came down to these two:

• Not hurting my players
• I don’t know where to begin

With so much information out there, a lot of it conflicting, these coaches were not sure how to begin, or what was appropriate for their players.

I come across this a lot. Parents, teachers and coaches really do find this difficult.

That is why everything we do is designed to help the young athlete, or their coach and parent.

I spent 90 minutes helping these coaches understand the principles behind training beginners, and gave practical exercises to get started. We also dispelled some of the common myths of strength training,

If this resonates with you, then come along to our “Making sport better” workshop next month.
