Study Notes
CrossFit Coaching
- The Deeper Side of Coaching: Great coaches connect with athletes beyond movements, fostering trust and a positive atmosphere. This involves understanding athlete motivations, goals, and reactions, tailoring coaching to individual needs.
- Awareness: Successful coaching involves reading athletes' responses to understand what motivates them, their capabilities, and how they best learn and receive feedback. Recognizing signs like mood changes or comprehension levels is key.
- Trust: Trust is crucial for a strong athlete-coach relationship. Building trust isn't just about knowledge; it's about actively listening and demonstrating sincerity. Coaches should actively listen and empathize.
- Character and Conduct: A coach's character and integrity are vital in fostering trust. Loyalty and avoiding gossip are crucial to maintaining respect.
- Coaching the Positive: Positive language sets athletes up for success, while negative cues can be detrimental. Subconsciously, athletes process negative language as instructions to perform that action. Coaches should provide positive reinforcement.
- Strategies: The notes include practical techniques like focusing on one area at a time when implementing new drills.
