Competition


There are advantages to both working one-on-one with athletes and working with them in a team setting. With small group training, I love the high energy and competitive spirit that arises when 2 athletes want to better themselves. With Grant and Justin, I have tried to capitalize on their competitiveness by turning standard drills into challenges. Instead of trying to coach every movement they make, I pose a challenge to them and let their bodies figure out a way to solve it. They're such great athletes that they seem to always find the most effecient and effective way to complete the drill.
