If you want to help your child enjoy sports more, it starts with what you ask immediately after the game.
Those questions are the "consequences" of performance - what your kid will remember most.
If you want sports to be fun, start by asking what they enjoyed and learned/

Had a great conversation with Tom from Spill the Watt’s podcast this morning. If you’d like to take a listen, click the link below 🙏🏻🖤

We were both at home last week with flu. Still not 100% but couldn't take it anymore and needed to get outside today.
This was a really good presentation on preparation for orienteering competitions (with some really nice insights about performance in general) from 14 time orienteering world champion and Finnish National coach Thierry Gueorgiou.

My wife and our friends have been trying to get me into orienteering for the last 16 years with little to no success. I did the local kid's "orienteering school" with my son this summer and ran some easy competitions with him and now we have this fun new hobby. They're annoyed🙄
We've taken a sport sampling approach with our kids and we especially like sports that we can do together as a family. Found orienteering this year and it's quickly becoming a family favourite 😍

If you want to read the "Norwegian Training Method" derived from and explained by coaches and athletes who have been winning with it for decades, here it is. Nice summary! By the way, "Dæhlie" in the team name Aker-Dæhlie refers to 8-time XC skiing Olympic Gold medal winner (1992, 94, 98) Bjørn Dæhlie

So this also happened. Kasper inked a LTAD deal with BV that hopefully sees him rise to the World Tour in the future.
It's been a gift to be a custodian of his development for the past three years. Looks like we get 1 more year together before he is off to bigger and better 🤩 – at Rauma, Suomi
Interesting case: For the last year I have been coaching an extremely talented youth who was suffering from severe abdominal cramps during HIT training & racing.
The athlete had been to several doctors, specialist and exercise physiology labs and gotten a clean bill of health. – at Rauma, Suomi
After some investigations it was determined that the athlete did indeed have MALS.
We hoped that corrective surgery could be an option but the medical team that was looking after the athlete considered the surgery to be highly risky and recommend not to have the surgery. – at Rauma, Suomi
This young lad had a massive performance yesterday. 16 years old and 16th in the men's pro field at the inaugural FNLD GRVL race. Best in U19 category.
We are ready for Finnish Championships. Lets gooo! 🔥

The right dosage of load and recovery brings the optimal performance results.That’s not just true for athletes but also for coaches,managers,high performers regardless for their job. This is not about work life balance, this is just about physiology and neuro science.
Kasper has been living in Belgium for a couple months soaking up everything he can learn about racing while building his confidence and competence. Yesterday he podiumed junior E3 🤩🥳🥹 – at Rauma, Suomi
