Self Reflection
-
As I was working the athletes through the progressions, I could tell that I wasn’t catching faults that I should be. I had a whole set where I didn’t cue any of the athletes.
- Before hand, think through common faults I know people will struggle with and prep the cues for them
-
Confidence in the presentation — not much I can do here other than keep doing it and know that I’m prepared and know what I’m talking about.
-
My movement through athletes was better than the first time
- didn’t walk through the athletes
- kept at 45º angles to see everyone at once
-
Feel good about my progressions that I take people through.
-
If an athlete over corrects, mention that and give another cue
- e.g. feet too narrow then too wide on power clean
