Episode 3: Season 3 Episode 3- Boo Schexnayder "The mistakes you make are the greatest vitamin pill you take as a coach"

Published: Jan. 31, 2023, 5 a.m.

I couldn’t be more excited to have had the opportunity to sit down and catch up with 2023 presenter Coach Boo Schexnayder on this week’s episode of The Podcast. After a quick catch-up with Coach Boo we get into:

 

1)     The role of science and practical common sense thinking in coaching, and how what is “scientific” vs common sense has come full circle.

2)     What the role of research is in his coaching, and how he sees some limitations to research 

3)     Why he’s very reserved when it comes to the flavor of the week fads and leans towards time tested methods and means

4)     The role of coming up as a coach before the “technology movement” has helped him have a better understanding of what is and isn’t useful in sports tech.

5)     Trusting your instincts when it comes to making decisions on programming and during training session.

6)     How important mistakes are in a coach’s development ONLY if they are able to be critical of themselves.

7)     The importance of having outside interests from coaching to help us stay grounded and avoid burnout.

 

 

I hope you’re as excited as I are to bring to Coach Boo back to The Seminar and can join us at PLAE HQ this July 21st and 22nd! For more info and to book your seats use the link here: https://cvasps.com/2023-seminar/
