How it Works
There are three fundamental aspects to this 10-week coaching program.
- First is the body, which includes one on one personal training. Each week your son will come for an hour workout in our private studio. This personal training involves an assessment and a progressive program which will/can include cooperative management of home exercise. During there 10 weeks of exercise, they will also learn about exercise in a format that is simplified and well demonstrated. Topics include…
Primary components of fitness (strength, endurance, cardio, flexibility, body composition), Secondary components of fitness (agility, balance, coordination, reaction time etc) Form, Breathing, Tracking, Recovery, How and why to stick to a plan, what core is and is not, Fun ways to get cardio in, Specificity. Proper warming up, Stretching, Functional fitness.
- Sections two and three are what make this SO different. They will enjoy a boy friendly learning environment to receive coaching on the topics included in section three. During their workout we use a movement model to teach. The difference between allowing boys to move while they learn compared to sitting still in a room feeling awkward from silence and eye contact cannot be overstated. They can have their music of choice with a positive and motivating environment. The coaching sessions in section three are powerful yet relatively short and to the point, increasing engagement. This positive environment creates a great space for both learning and mentoring right here in London.
- This is where brain, behaviour and beliefs come in. Parents can pick 20 of the 46 coaching topics listed below (plus 5 additional if time allows) to be coached during the sessions. Each coaching session will give a fresh perspective on the topic with key takeaways. An onboarding questionnaire may help determine the best sessions for your son. Please have a look through these important skill sets.
