Programming is Not Coaching
Five modules arguing that your programme is rarely the thing holding athletes back. Athlete resistance, team dynamics, feedback and standards that survive without you in the room.
What you’ll learn
- Work out whether the programme or the coaching is the real problem
- Handle athlete resistance without lowering the standard
- Give feedback that changes behaviour rather than just correcting it
- Set standards that hold once you are not in the room
