Back in the Game!
Just got back home after spending 10 days camping, and kayaking. No outside contacts, no phones, no news. This was a battery recharge trip. I do it once a year. 🙏🙏🙏

Today’s training
Was able to push myself harder on this ruck session. Got up into zone 2 more. May need to bump up the weight a little to see the work I really want here. HR would drop down to zone 0-1 real quick if I wasn’t focused on pushing.

Atomic Habits, Chapter 22 – “The Role of Feedback”
Awareness precedes improvement. How I’ll apply it today: I’ll review one habit honestly — what’s working, what’s slipping — and adjust without emotion.

When coaching junior athletes (5–14), what do you feel is the biggest needle-mover for learning and development?
I’m currently refining our Junior MMA program and would love insight from coaches and athletes alike. Beyond the poll, what have you personally seen work best when coaching kids aged 5–14? What actually helps them learn faster, build confidence, retain skills, and enjoy the process long enough to develop long term? Systems, stories, wins, mistakes — all welcome.

I’ve not worked with kids in this age group in a while, but something I heard the other day may help with some of the application of the approach here. You as a coach are able to shape these kids with even simply your words. If we tell a child they are good at something over and over again it shapes their way of thinking, and encourages them to get even better because they see it as something they are good at. However if we tell them they are bad over and over it will have the opposite effect, the confidence is destroyed, the enjoyment and effort follow suit.
