It all comes down to you as an athlete.

Coaches can guide you. Teammates can push you. People around you can support you.

But at the end of the day, the drive to improve has to come from within.

You have to want it for yourself.

No coaches were hurt in the making of this video (just their aura) 😂

Whatever you set your mind to, you put yourself in the best position to achieve your goals.

If you let negativity control you, it will control your performance negatively, not matter how prepared you are.

Believe in yourself.

There’s no “perfect age” to start strength & conditioning.

Strength & conditioning can mean a lot of different things. It’s not just about lifting weights.

For young athletes, it can involve developing movement skills, motor control, coordination, balance, strength, speed, power, jumping, landing and learning how to move their body effectively.

When it’s age-appropriate, properly coached and progressed over time, strength & conditioning can play a huge role in an athlete’s long-term development.

The focus should always be on how they train, not simply how old they are.

If you’re interested in how strength & conditioning can be incorporated into your child’s training, comment ‘training’.

It’s so important to educate young athletes that it’s not always about the long-term goal.

Short-term goals create progression and give athletes something they can focus on each day, while still moving towards the bigger goal.

It can also help with emotional regulation. Instead of thinking, “I’m not a pro athlete yet,” the focus becomes:

“How can I be better than I was yesterday?”

Small goals. Small wins. Consistent progress.

That’s what eventually gets you closer to the bigger goal.

Your season is over. Now the real work starts.

But don’t rush into training just for the sake of training.

Take a proper look at where you’re at, what needs work, and what you can take to another level.

The best off-seasons have a purpose behind them.

Know what you’re working towards, train with intent, and make sure you’re a better athlete when next season comes around.
