A)plan Coaching

[Dannie Heinzen]

Acoaching plan (or coaching session plan) serves as the play-by-play guide to complete each coaching session you give, providing a range of advantages that streamline the coaching process and boost productivity for you and your clients!

The primary benefit is better organization. A strong overall plan provides a clear roadmap and framework to develop a well-structured coaching session plan for each meeting. You get to make sure all important topics are addressed within your set time frame. No more going overtime with every session!

Beyond facilitating organization, a strong coaching plan also sharpens your focus. With precise objectives laid out in every session, both you and your client stay on track toward achieving specific goals.

In some cases, you may already have a strategy in mind, especially if you already have a signature process in place. In that case, you should decide which approach is best for this client to execute said strategy.

I know this may make some paper-free people shake their heads, but I find that having a custom printed out schedule of the week makes it much easier for me to visualize my schedule and priorities. So I do what works for me.

I just set up an intervals.icu account and I am enjoying its features so far. However, I want to ask how I can write training plans and use the coaching feature of the website? Do I need to have my athlete join intervals.icu before it will let me write the training plan?

I can see how I can upload runs/workouts and assign them to athletes and they can then sync those runs with their Garmin. And I can see their stats and health data - which is all excellent. As is the ability to comment on specific workouts.

Plans opens a calendar where you can drop workouts, and notes into, to push to the athlete(s). You have a number of options for the rollout frequency. This can also be assigned to any number of athletes, and also start from a certain date.

Academic coaching is a personalized, one-on-one meeting with a trained academic coach who can help you improve your skills and performance. Working with an academic coach can help you study smarter by developing skills in time management, goal setting, and test preparation.

Remember, ASC coaches are not academic advisors. Conversations with your advisor will focus on planning curriculum and meeting requirements, whereas academic coaching allows space for everything in between, like learning strategies, life management skills, and earning strong grades. A meeting with one of our academic coaches is one of the best ways to personalize your education and get on track academically.

Divorce coaches are primarily concerned with helping their clients navigate the waters during the divorce process and may also offer them help establishing a plan for their post-divorce life. But none I have come across focus on helping parents with their co-parenting issues after the ink dries on the divorce decree.

Both mediation AND co-parent coaching are excellent alternatives to court-based remedies when it comes to resolving co-parenting disputes. Like mediation, co-parent coaching is a far less adversarial engagement with a co-parent than taking them to court. There are four primary differences between mediation and coaching.

NOTE: I created this list to give you a general idea of the types of concerns that co-parent coaching may be able to help you with. However, every situation is different and extenuating circumstances may make co-parent coaching more or less appropriate in a particular situation. This is typically determined during the initial consultation.

That day I learned a few things: first, I was a pretty lousy jumper; second, the 300-meter hurdles is just about the hardest race that exists at the high school level; and third, roast beef sandwiches taste a lot better on the way down than they do on the way up. I hope you never have to learn that final lesson the way I did.

I eventually became a decent enough hurdler over the next few years, but that first race was doomed from the start. And while my lack of experience and belly full of beef were certainly contributing factors, there was another: I had no plan.

Telling athletes to run tall reminds them that they should be in an upright sprinting posture between the hurdles; telling them to maintain reminds them that they need to continue to be fast through the second and up to the third hurdle and avoid deceleration.

Next, we need to consider the actual foot strike in the sprinting mechanics. Boo Schexnayder talks about using the feet to apply force outwardly when coaching curve running in the high jump approach, and while this curve is much less dramatic than a high jump curve, the basic principle still applies. Finally, arm action should also be slightly altered in the curve, with the outside arm approaching the chin as opposed to the cheek. These three things done in unison will help keep your athletes positioned where they need to be.

There might be no more beautiful moment than when the stagger has been completed and all the hurdles line up for the first time in the straightaway of the homestretch. There are right around 80 meters to go, and the sixth hurdle tells the tale of how successful your first five were.

For most athletes, the homestretch is the hardest part of the race, and with good reason. With every second that passes, it becomes harder for the body to coordinate explosive movement and overall stability, and technique is often the first thing to go when fatigue sets in. At this point, I prompt athletes to focus on that coordination.

So, there you have it: a plan you can put in place today that will give your 300-meter hurdlers a tangible strategy for success in the hardest race on the track. To recap, here are the phases and their cues:

Thanks for sharing you experience and passion for the 300 hurdles my daughter does the 100H but us going to try the 300H for the first time your post will really help her in this greatly appreciated and I am glad I came across your post

Hi Tyler. Thank you so much for this article. We are from South Africa. My 14 year old has always been a sprinter (100 & 200m) with above average times . He switched to 300m hurdles in stead of 100m. We have been looking for a program to teach him to run the 300m in stages. (Eating the elephant) . Are there any specific drills we can practise with him? We are doing lead leg kicks over hurdles. Rythem and trail leg over and in between hurdles. Unfortunately our country does not really cater for state school training . Private training are so expensive that we cannot afford it. Could you or anybody recommend a site for drills? He continues his sprint training so he is fit and executes sprints well.

Thank you in advance.

Coach, Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge and experience. I am a former 100 m hurdles, but my son is running the 300m hurdles. I felt confident helping him with his technique, but I wanted to make sure he was also prepared for the phases of the race. You have been most helpful.
