My Thoughts Monday #103- Look At What They CAN Do To Keep Them Moving Forward

“If we can remove the can’t and put the can in to give them a focal point, and a light at the end of the tunnel to train for, I think we are going to see improvements, not just in return to play, but how they return to play.”This My Thoughts Monday is brought to you by Vald Performance, the team behind the NordBord, ForceDecks, the GroinBar and HumanTrak. With all their products providing evidence-based solutions to performance professionals so they can get the right information, for the right decision, at the right time. Make sure to go check out all their great products at: www.valdperformance.comA huge take home from this summers edition of The Seminar for me was the idea of talking about what the athlete can do, as opposed to what they can’t do that Sam Gardner referenced in how they program for their athletes. This has changed my outlook on our “retrun to play” programming from the outset of an injury. We can always find something the athlete CAN do, and something they CAN work on to get better. That doesn’t me that we should just throw something hard at them to “make them work”, but can be something that can be focused on a specific aspect of their training that they can improve upon to increase their abilities in other areas of performance.
