01
Start with the athlete
Age, training history, sport demands, position, competition schedule, injury history, and current coaching environment shape the plan.
02
Build transferable qualities
Strength, coordination, speed mechanics, change of direction, conditioning, and recovery can support performance when they are trained progressively and connected to sport practice.
03
Do not train through medical questions
Pain, concussion, recent injury, postsurgical return, and medical conditions require the appropriate healthcare or sports-medicine professional.
