Power Monkey Podcast 202 - Spotting the Handstand
In today’s movement-focused episode, we delve into the often undervalued and sometimes ignored skill of spotting. Spotting is not just a safety measure; it's an art that enhances coaching effectiveness and athlete development.
As coaches, mastering the art of spotting is crucial. It goes beyond creating a safe training environment. It's about guiding athletes through movements, allowing them to experience the correct form and technique firsthand. Often, athletes struggle with maintaining proper body position and technique, leading to the reinforcement of poor habits. Effective spotting can change that, helping athletes refine their technique and develop better body awareness.
Remember, learning how to spot correctly and making liberal use of spotting can significantly improve your technique and overall physical development.
