7 Thoughts on Coaching Young Athletes


Listen Later

If you train young athletes, this episode is for you!

Here I’m going to share 7 powerful insights from my 25 years of coaching young athletes.

Whether it’s customizing your communication, monitoring your energy, or practical strategies to motivate and connect with your young athletes, I know you’ll take something away from this podcast that will help you level up.

So without any further ado, let’s dive in!

 

Quotable Quotes:

Understanding each athlete’s unique character, interests, and mindset is crucial for effective coaching. Tailoring your approach enhances engagement and development

 

The goal is to make young athletes love the process of training so it becomes a lifelong habit, not just a chore. Transform the gym into their favorite place

 

A relentless focus on effort and attitude can compensate for talent gaps. Perseverance becomes the real differentiator in performance.

 

This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:
  • How I’ve learned from ALL my various experiences in the fitness industry, and how they’ve all given me perspective
  • Why just like coaching cues, you have to individualize how you coach your athletes
  • The power of finding your own, unique aura and coaching-style to truly stand out
  • Are some kids more “coachable” than others? And if so, how do you connect with the ones who aren’t???
  • Why effort is such a critical piece of the puzzle, and why it carries over to every facet of life after sports
  • A question to ponder: Are you “that coach?”
  • Why you have to monitor and control YOUR energy as a coach
  • One thing you HAVE to do, for as long as you’re coaching!
  •  

     

    Level Up Your Exercise Selection and Technique with Whatsthatstrap!

    Are you looking for ways to coach more effectively while cuing less?

    Or getting your clients and athletes into the right position WITHOUT overwhelming them with 35 cues every set?

    If so, you need to check out Whatsthatstrap!

    What’s That Strap makes specialty cable machine attachments that are specifically designed for rotation and multidirectional movement.

    The 3D Strap is amazing for driving separation between the hips and shoulders like you would in tennis, golf, baseball or even basketball, but it can also be used to resist rotation in standard weight room exercises like squats and lunges as well.

    And while the 3D Strap is awesome, I also find myself using their chop handles all the time as well. Whether it’s for exercises like chops and lifts, or just using them as a bonus sled dragging attachment, I absolutely love their versatility.

    To learn more about Whatsthatstrap or pick up a 3D Strap or chop handles, head over to WhatsThatStrap.com and use the discount code RTS at checkout to get free shipping on all US orders.

    I know you’re going to love training with their attachments!
