"Coaching is about so much more than simply writing training plans, no matter how accurate and detailed they may be. Coaching is about developing relationships with people and finding out what it will take to bring the best out of them. Only then can the coach help the athlete grow. A good coach will as a priority, educate the athlete and explain what is happening on a physiological level so that every single training session actually means something"
