The 4 competitions that was shot in the last weekend was hard. The atlethes had the day off on monday (except for physical training). As a coach i looked forward to meet the atlethes again on tuesday but during their short meal ( a fruit and yogurt or something) i notice they were tired. I could see that my sessionplan would be to hard to follow when it came to consentration. My session would probably be a bad session for the atlethes and they would probably not learn so much. So i decided to change the training. This is important as a coach to be able to do. To “read” the atlethes and their mood and especially after a hard competition weekend or longer training periode. So i changed the plan for the session. Instead of stability session they could do whatever they wanted. But they should have a task and a goal. To make sure they learned something they should be able to answer what, why and how about their task. I noticed that during the session the atlethes had more breaks then normal, but that was ok. This was also a confirmation of that it was a correct decision to give them the freedom of the session. They did work very well when they were training, but needed more breaks then normal. And sometimes this is and should be ok.
