First and foremost, coaching is a personal process and in my opinion the difference between a good and a great coach is the way he or she interacts with an athlete. I also know how important it is to be flexible, both as a coach or as an athlete. However, my approach is also very much rooted in the scientific method. I apply critical thinking rather than taking training wisdom at face value, so that you can trust that he hard work you’re doing, is actually making you faster and stronger.
