Dad being a uniformed coach for daughter!

He said she’s putting on the breaks cause she’s not used to the speed. If she’s running down hill, then putting on the breaks is exactly what she’ll be rehearsing. It’s no wonder shes doing it on the flat. We can post studies done with gym teachers all day that say this or that. Untrained individuals respond differently than trained athletes. Also, at 35m, because of body angle, the breaking pattern that comes with downhill sprinting won’t come into play a whole lot.

If she’s made that much of a drop in her time, then what makes he coach think she’s going to keep making those drops? When does she do her weights? How many and what sort of foot contacts is she doing for plyos?

How much core work is she doing (a-la Charlie’s medball variety)?

Squats can be done on the same day as power cleans, just do them afterwards.

I think he just finds stuff on the net or listens to other highschool coaches and goes from there. I have know idea when she does weights or plyos. Im sure he has taught her terrible form during cleans. I just hope he starts to listen before he hurts her. Or before he puts her on the super steep hill he is gradually working towards.
