Quality will always trump lazy quantity....

Last night we had @cjking.15 fresh from his first senior York City FC involvement, seen here doing some perturbed walking lunges.
@camsmith.7 progressed his back squat strength with excellent form ahead of his cup semi-final this weekend...
We also had Asa perform his first ever barbell back squat after a prolonged period of body weight and goblet based progressions. He is competing as top seed in a regional tennis event this weekend...
... Louis How and @aidan_smith_01 also smashed their sessions, showing clear improvement each week.
Love coaching these enthusiastic and successful young athletes 👍🏻📈 #unlockingathleticpotential

Top work by the guys at @leedsbeckett to develop this framework for decision making in S&C.
There are so many factors that contribute to ‘effective’ coaching.
Considering the Who, What and How ensures context driven quality and demonstrates that good coaches don’t just wing it or ‘do a bit of this and that’ to make someone tired...
... Are you getting context driven quality from your training?

Having an individual with a goal is step 1️⃣
Having a framework upon which to steer the individual towards this goal is step 2️⃣
Applying the framework in relation to sport demands, contraction types, velocities and planes of movement is step 3️⃣
... Providing quality coaching, cueing and motivation is step 4️⃣
What is your goal? 📈🎯🏆

New evidence today that suggests using the FREE 30-15 IFT app is a reliable and useful way to track fitness in individuals and groups of players...
This along with MyJump2 and MySprint this means that quality Sport Science is available to everyone... and it doesn’t cost a fortune.
Make sure you are providing your players/athletes quality 📈🎯
