Did the “coach” blame the guy for not having enough “heart” or being soft? I’m so sick of stupid coaches who destroy athletes and then turn the problems on the athlete.
There is absolutely no doubt that many athletes have caused their own demises but some coaches never take responsibility for the destruction of athletes when it was their crazy, volumized poor excuse of a program and/or lack of true LI days that led to many of the problems in the first place.
Coaches need to take responsibility for their part in the problems and not always blame the athletes for injuries or lack of results.
While this particular case may have nothing to do with what I’m describing, it’s something that I’m seeing all too regularly.
