Are you using AI to replace your thinking. or extend it?
I've found myself thinking about AI use in coaching at three levels:

AI DOES → AI ASSISTS → AI EXTENDS

The first can save time.
The second can improve your work.
But the third is where I think it becomes genuinely valuable to a coach.

Give it the athlete.
Give it the context.
Give it the evidence.
Give it the constraints.
Then don't ask:
“What should I do?”
Ask:
“Challenge my thinking.”

The decision still belongs to the coach.

AI is the assistant. You are the coach.

Most coaches using AI are probably only scratching the surface.
For me, there are three very different levels:
1 — AI DOES
“Write me a session.”
2 — AI ASSISTS
“Here’s my session. Help me improve it.”
3 — AI EXTENDS
“Here’s the athlete, context, evidence and constraints. Challenge my thinking.”
Level 3 is where it becomes really interesting.
I don't want AI making coaching decisions for me. I want it helping me see the decision more clearly.
Don't use AI to think less. Use it to think better.

A slightly different one today, what planning season actually looks like behind the scenes, including a mistake I made a few weeks ago and had to fix mid-season. 👇

Thought it was worth sharing the less polished side occasionally.
