Episode 10: Level Up This Season: Practical Goals for Girls & High School Wrestlers

from Illinois Girls Wrestling Podcast · host XDMART Inc

In this episode, host Lena Burkut and Coach Jack Tinsley break down a simple, three-layer goal-setting system for wrestlers and families: outcome, performance, and process. They cover age- and experience-based goals for beginners, intermediate families, and high school athletes, and explain how to pick one goal per bucket (skills, body, mindset) to build consistent progress. Listeners learn practical tips for parents, how to handle setbacks and injuries, and a clear challenge to write three focused goals in 72 hours. The episode emphasizes refining core moves, tracking progress, and keeping goals flexible and actionable throughout the season. -------------------------------------- New episode every Wednesday (this is a plan)! ---------- We are a baby podcast with a huge mission, and we would love your help - share the success of Girls' wrestling in the State of Illinois.
