My First Love
Last Saturday week back the GAA club organised a Coaching Day where the senior players and management coached the Juvenile teams
In fairness it went well and I made sure to drop in with the 15's and 17's to avoid the madness of U 10's and below
Other than helping out with a team last year a few times it's been a long time since I have been heavily involved
And as things got busier with the business it had to be knocked on the head
And I decided that I would just do my own training until my own kids come about
Now with 2 young nephews and Dutchy Junior on the way it will be soon time to get back at it in a few years
At least until Dutchy Junior gets old enough to tell me to fudge off
It just reminded me of how much I enjoyed the challenge of it and young people do need some sort support along the way as they may not be getting it at home
It also reminded me of the BS people say where you need to be "Specific" to who you train and only stick with that
It's great for marketing reasons but outside of that it's great to train ANYONE that actually want's to train and make improvements
I don't mind training anyone of any age
There's pro's and cons to everything but the 1 thing you want
Is someone that actually wants to learn and put in the work
^^^^^ I'm sure teachers and anyone in the coaching/teaching field would agree
If they are 10 yrs of age and love their footie
20 yrs of age and want to get ripped to pull the babes
40 years of age and want to shed some weight and improve their health
or 60 years of age and just want to be able to move better and improve their health
Doesn't bother me a bit
Which is why we try to aim to have a variety of programs for 90% of the population
The young Muscle head stud probably wouldn't like our stuff so we can't just please everyone
Which is why there is a Time & a Place for everything in your training journey
The person that tries to do everything at once usually fails at numerous tasks
Which is why it's difficult to make massive changes to your health plan straight off the bat
and very common for people to start with the exercise part of it and work their way into the diet part of it after a few months
Just making small changes and chipping at the block
And of course no one's diet is ever perfect so you should never be too hard on yourself on that front
So yeah,
Small boring changes along the way tends to work best
who'd of thunk it
Just make sure to get the week started the right way
