Questo articolo fa un lavoro eccezionale nell'illustrare la complessità e la profondità del coaching di alto livello. Spesso, si tende a considerare il coaching come un'abilità basata esclusivamente sulle competenze tecniche, come l'insegnamento del movimento o la correzione degli errori. Tuttavia, l'articolo va oltre, esplorando come il vero valore di un grande allenatore risieda nella sinergia tra molteplici abilità e attributi che si uniscono per creare un'esperienza di coaching che può sembrare quasi magica.

L'autore mette in luce come il coaching efficace non sia solo una questione di conoscenze tecniche, ma anche di capacità di ispirare, motivare e comprendere profondamente i bisogni e i potenziali degli atleti. Questo approccio integrato è ciò che distingue un allenatore straordinario da uno semplicemente competente. 

In sintesi, l'articolo non solo celebra l'importanza del coaching ma invita anche a riconoscere il duro lavoro.

I was cheated on by my partner and her fitness coach. She swore that nothing happened, but I just couldn't shake the feeling that She had been unfaithful to me. So I did some research online and found Y3llowl4bs. They told me everything, the name and address of the fitness coach, where they met, how they would meet up and it broke my heart. But what hurt even more was knowing that She had lied to me; that She had gone behind my back and betrayed me.

Thanks for the article 
I gonna read it every week to seek out improvements in my coaching skills and as a human

I love to regularly read this article since it has been released. It’s a great resource that holds you to the basic core principles of the methodology and gives you the practical applications of it in order to coach effectively and making people better at 360 degrees. This is pure gold for CrossFit Trainers! Thanks for sharing Matt!!

A great theoretical write-up, lately cf classes just feels like a bunch of people who want to come in and move around and socialize. I use to be so into researching and preparing for classes but I've been struggling so sooo hard with staying positive in classes. I was even thinking for a while of going for my L3 but it seems like no one cares to learn or get better or even complete the warm up. I don't know if it's my pride or what but I'm losing my passion rapidly when the majority of group fitness athletes coming in don't seem to care much.

Conditions wouldn't permit anything heavy today, so I didn't count reps and just did a bloody lot of them over at least 10 sets at weights 45-85#.  Technique felt good today, even with my knees still sore from 1775 and 210706.

This worked out really well: I was able to identify my #1 fault: armpits not turning out. Focusing on that fault helped to adjust bar travel, heels down, butt back, hips below knees -- all fell into place with attention to the armpits. Definitely not perfect! But a lot more consistent.

Same issue

Video link not working for me. Says... "Video unavailable. This video is private"

Workout tips set as a private video? Is that intentional?

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT
Nothing to rant about

WORKOUT THEMES
Jumping/landing with heavy weight, high output followed by rest, emphasis on squatting with an upright torso

MAIN DECISION
Do I allow for a regrip?

TECHNIQUE SCALE
Same format, do sets of 10+ each time, also hold bottom position for longer than is comfortable

CONSISTENCY SCALE
As listed, don't allow for regrip

INTENSITY SCALE
As listed, allow for short regrip if needed

INJURY SCALE
Find something you can lift at full capacity and do a 3 rep max

MY STUFF
Did sets of 115 with a pause on the bottom

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 3

Thank you for this great article!

This is amazing! Thanks a lot.

Brilliant article, thanks Matt!

Inspiring! Let the journey begin.

Thanks for sharing this great article !
Could you recommend books/articles about relationship building ?

Appreciations for activating key coaching elements. I am revalidating my credentials after a few years away from coaching. This article jacks me up! 

Thank you so much for this, loved it 😍

Thank you! Really makes a difference to my development as a new coach when I read such articles. Love it! :)

"Identify a great coach and watch carefully as they interact with their athletes. Imagine nothing is an accident and try to imitate or incorporate what they do into your toolkit."

^^This, for sure. And it's also important for athletes to do this also - whether that's for CrossFit movements or sports in general. Recently we've been putting a lot of emphasis on less of me talking and, "Hey guys, watch Dillon... okay, spend 30 seconds trying to mimic that."

This article is a masterpiece!

Was a great piece of reading, I remembered my L1, L2 and all the group classes and coaching experiences that I have had through the years. Thanks!!!

Yes! This article is right on point! Really enjoyed it. 

Blown away by this article! So much to pull from this! Thank you for writing this for us. 

Wow!  The breadth and depth of this article has certainly provided an amazing stimulus for continual learning!  

Thanks, Matt Swift for an inspiring piece!

Thank you!! Just it, so fantastic!

Thank you! Just it.

It is a kind of exceptional article that you immediately would love to put into your favorite document for repetitive reading every once in a while.

This article should NOT be open access, is full of amazing concepts and as always explained in a perfect way. We should pay to read this and who disagree is not worth what's written on it.

This model really puts things in the proper perspective. Love this return to instructor education.  

Exceptional article, thank you!

Very timely for me as a new coach.  Thank you

Great article! Thank you for sharing.

I love what you guys are doing! This article was excellent.

Very excited to see the announcement of the new Professional Coach publication. What a great article to kick things off. Great job Matt!

One of the best articles I have ever read on coaching.  Well done Matt!

Fantastic Article! Thanks for taking the time to share.
