There has been some interesting dialogue regarding internships in the past 24 hours. I won't argue, but I'll give a few thoughts. 1. Your market value is what somebody is willing to pay you for your coaching services. If nobody is willing to pay, you have no market value (yet).

John Wooden’s early years of coaching did not bring him any great success, not titles or trophy’s but he was honing his skills and developing his approach and philosophy which lead him to his Pyramid of Success. #Success #Coach #Coaching #JohnWooden #Athlete #Sports #Training

Sport specific, schmort schmerlific The better term is PERSON SPECIFIC training. Athletes don't need to emulate their sport in the weight room. They need to use the weight room to address THEIR unique injury history, THEIR goals, and THEIR ability level. Just like everyone else.

What has emerged from our observations is that a/the critical repositioning variable is getting into the high knee position on the front side - how the fastest athletes get there after toe-off can vary a bit.
