CVASPS The Podcast

“If we are being entrusted for the physical preparation of the student athletes, or of the young people we get to work with, shouldn’t we allow the coaches, and shouldn’t we provide them the trust to develop the special preparation for their athletes?”

In this week’s My Thoughts Monday I share some of the reflecting I have been doing of late when it comes to programming, and why I think we may have gone too far down the “specific” rabbit hole, and why this may be one of the things limiting us as a profession by preventing us to develop a true “role” in sport.
