We say we want to “train the whole athlete,” but are we really doing that?

In this episode of Three Questions with Meghann Koppele Duffy, I challenge the assumptions baked into modern youth sports.  From over-cueing growing bodies to misunderstanding how the visual and vestibular systems shape performance, I explore how well-intentioned coaching can sometimes limit long-term development.

In This Episode You’ll Hear:

• Why more cues and corrections can confuse a developing nervous system

• How screens, hormones, and sensory overload affect developing bodies

• What parents and coaches can do to build stronger, smarter movers without burnout

Whether you coach, parent, or move alongside young athletes, this conversation invites you to rethink what “training hard” really means and how to help kids become capable humans, not just better performers.
