Because it's the #1 interrogate I get asked and it's something I've had to deal with many times over the years, I've been thinking a lot about how we, as New Breed coaches, can do right by our athletes and help our less evolved colleagues entertain the possibility of a great way than regurgitating the same 'Repeat 200' program for the 15th year in a row. So, based on my personal taste and countless conversations with frustrated parents, coaches, athletes and trainers from all over the world, here is what I *know:
If you want your ideas to be heard, you can't come in with a 'Shock and Awe' campaign. Coaches who are comfortable doing the same old crap will recoil in bad dream like a 7 year old girl who just walked in on you eating the cookies she left out for Santa Claus. Nice job Dad, you ruined Christmas for wee Sally. Nothing will ever be the same again. Now she'll be working at Hooters by her 18th birthday.
Kids Pants & Capris
It's plainly too fantastic to have to treat coaching like a real job. So you can't overwhelm population with your fancy pants 'coaching education' and 'certifications' and 'knowledge'. Especially when dealing with coaches who have been nearby a while and fundamentally believe their ways and long standing Traditions are the only way.

Do that and you'll get to taste the human version of a rat trapped in a corner. (They bite. Hard.)
You can't necessarily use Logic and Reason, either. Or, what's it called? Oh yeah.
Science.
Studies show that most population will tightly hold onto their trust systems, even when presented with fantastic evidence to the contrary. Want proof? Just take a look at how population vote against their own best interest determination after election. (Perhaps we are not as evolved a species as we like to give ourselves credit for.)
'Logic, presuppose and Science' works great than a 'Shock and Awe' campaign. But, chances are, all the A Workout program Signed by Jesus Couldn't Get Me to convert My Ways Coach hears you saying is, "Hey Ass Clown, you're wrong! I'm right. You are inadequate as a human being."
Don't try to presuppose with these types of people.
And you may be right. But you're not going to get everywhere with these types of population unless you handle the situation without emotion. You can't train speed in a state of fatigue and you can't sway someone to your point of view if you're bordering on murderous rage.
Truth is, a lot of coaches aren't for real curious in developing skills in their athletes or studying anything new. They just like hanging out with some kids after school and collecting a combine grand to do it. Success is directly proportional to the what the Law of Probability dictates because they're not developing skilled athletes, they're just managing talent. Doesn't make them bad people, just bad coaches. And I don't for real have a qoute with that under the following condition: If you'd rather be a babysitter than a coach, just be upfront about it. Then take 2 weeks off. Then quit.
No matter where you live, high school sports are a highly Socialist, nepotistic, Good 'Ol Boy construct. You don't get paid for getting results. You don't get fired for not getting results. And you don't have to be considerable to coach. Generally, you just have to be a carbon based life form who works at the school, and, ideally, be able to pronounce the name of the sport you want to coach in three tries or less. Doesn't matter if you can currently fit 6 of your high school selves into your current body as long as you're a Good 'Ol Boy and you know whose ring to kiss. As an entrepreneur and New Breed coach, I find this offensive. But it is what it is. And its par for the procedure all over the world.
So if the 'Shock and Awe' campaign makes you a pariah, the 'Logic, presuppose & Science' approach gets you the stink face and you're not willing to kiss the ring of some hobbit with a Napoleon Complex, what do you do?
I'd love to get your thoughts and stories in the comments section below, but I for real only see two options, neither of which are enchanting if you want to get results in the near future:
First, you can try the 'Boiling Frogs' approach. This will probably work if you're for real skilled and patient. But I look at it as a multi-year process. And that doesn't help you if you're a parent or an athlete with a narrow window of opportunity.
But if we, as New Breed coaches, want to compose foundational, positive, long term convert to the way young population are advanced - physically, emotionally, technically, etc., we have to adopt the second option...
Become living examples of a religious doctrine espoused by those rare individuals who have reached levels of consciousness far beyond the average human:
We must be the convert we want to see in others.
I'm not trying to get preachy or self righteous. I don't have the moral authority. And I'm no stranger to the 'Shock and Awe' approach, as well as several others that don't work. I am not a excellent someone by any stretch of the imagination. And, if you know me, you know I've never claimed anything of the sort. But I do try to learn from my mistakes. Like Jay-Z says, "It's all about progression."
When you spend in your athletes straight through ongoing coaching education and originate a positive, exciting, cutting edge training environment, you're going to start getting eye occasion results.
Because kids want to be the best they can be. They're silently begging to be heard and to be led. New Breed coaches supply that taste and that is why we're successful. It for real has very wee to do with how many 40s we do (or don't do) today.
The lowest line is: Kids don't want to be left on their own every day so convention turns into Romper Room. They don't want to have barbecues and pizza parties every other week. They want to get better. They want to run varsity, stand on the podium, get a medal (seriously, kids will chew straight through concrete to earn a medal at a meet), see their name in the paper and, did I mention kids love winning medals?
They'll succeed you if you make them feel good about themselves. And a wee personel attentiveness goes a long way. Because I run a serious program, I'm often accused of being an elitist. Of only paying attentiveness to the top 10%. That a focus on 'winning' has no place at the high school level. (I will address this absurdity in an upcoming record or video.) I don't just give personel attentiveness to the kids breaking records. I pay attentiveness to the kids who pay attention, no matter where they fall on the food chain. Kids will pretty much do what they're told by the adult coach in charge. They have no other choice. But it doesn't mean they like it. And it doesn't mean they believe in their coaching.
(Want to win over your team? Memorize the seasonal goals of your Jv kids and then, one day, when one of them is half-assing, say, "Your goal sheet says you want to achieve X Goal. Not gonna happen with that kind of effort." Jv kids don't think you're paying attentiveness to them. But if you are and they know it, all you have to do is look at them and they know you know. And the comprehensive attempt of the program goes up. Your program operates just like the food chain: Survival at the top doesn't happen without a strong, wholesome population at the bottom.)
But if you run a 'Group Individualized' program (I stole that from Tony Veney ) athletes will speedily start to collate your program (and association with them) to their taste in someone else sport/coach and choose to spend more time with you. They'll tell their parents about how much fun they're having and the performances speak for themselves. Kids talk. Parents talk. Your program will grow in a safe bet direction, as will your reputation.
Just be ready for the backlash. Because every person hates a winner. (Don't believe me? Name one highly flourishing someone you know of, notable or otherwise, who doesn't get hated on with regularity. That's right. You can't.) So the haters will be out in full force. And by 'full force' I mean they'll smile to your face, talk trash behind your back and/or send you unsigned letters in the mail. You just have to accept its going to happen. population I've known my whole life have said some hurtful and offensive things about me (behind my back, of course). There's no point in freaking out about it. Because I'm a firm believer in the Law of Karma, also known as 'You reap what you sow'.
So you'll be accused of 'recruiting' and stealing athletes from other sports. You'll also be the cause of Global Warming, the presuppose babies poop their pants and, nice try asshole, but we didn't forget what you did to wee Sally.
Of procedure you're not doing any of these things, but to those with no view of a world where kids are capable of production independent, autonomous choices about where and how they spend their free time, it will seem that way. population drunk on Hater-ade aren't going to hear your point of view or talk all of the good things you do. But what do you expect? You are the one who ruined Christmas.
Nice job elitist. Why don't you take your fancy workouts to the college level so we can get back to our pizza party.
And what's that smell? Good God, man. You just made someone else innocent baby crap itself. What's next on your list of abominations? If you melt a few more glaciers, maybe you can kill off the last polar bear. Jerk.
I'm a firm believer our actions define who we are. And other peoples' reactions say far more about them than they do about you. Remember that the next time someone slanders you behind your back.
Your supporters (parents, coaches and athletes alike) will see right straight through their Bs. So if, in your heart of hearts, you know you're living your life in service to others, persevere and continue to be the convert you want to see in others.
It's not easy. And you might be up against a status quo so firmly entrenched you have to take your talents elsewhere. But fighting, arguing and belittling your adversaries only serves to teach young population all the wrong things. No matter who thinks they're in the right. So don't go down that road. Gandhi also said, "There is no path to peace, peace is the path."
Let that marinate in your mind for a while.
If the population nearby you can't get on board, you'll have no option but to find population who will. That's finally the option I made. Now when I go to the school, I feel energized and excited instead of feeling like I'm going to lose my lunch. It's awesome. And that's how it should be. For everyone.
*There's at least a 50% occasion that all I think I know is 100% wrong.
