Agree with 98% of what you said. Unfortunately, kids can not wait until freshman year to specialize. The game will pass them by and they will never play at even a varsity or JV level. They feel behind the curve, because they are. Have this scenario dozens of times.

I fundamentally disagree. Kids should focus on developing as athletes because athletes get the opportunities. Athleticism is key.
@sierra65402 жыл бұрын
@@trainwithperc7009 you can tell that to athletes who’s career is cut short at 8th grade, that could of played and excelled but was behind other players who focused their efforts. I get what you’re saying but that isn’t reality anymore

Keeping your nose out of your child’s sport of choice can be a tough pill to swallow, but I absolutely see the merit. Great point.

Jay Thooft I really like this video. Lot of good points made. It’s pretty much in line with ADM which I’ve had some issues with in the past before I really thought it through. I don’t necessarily agree that overuse injuries come from specialization as injuries can occur in any sport at any time. However I do agree that using different muscle groups and thought processes will lead to a better athlete across the board.
@trainwithperc70093 жыл бұрын
You're absolutely correct injuries can occur at any time and many are out of our control. But the research is pretty clear on overuse injuries especially in certain sports (tennis and baseball) and I could have done a better job making that more clear. (Really appreciate you bringing this over here, Zach. It's really good insight)

Great, common sense advice here. It's unfortunate you have to tell people this stuff, but better said than unsaid. Especially like your views on avoiding specialization. Playing different sports throughout the year exposes kids to different skill sets and helps them hone their competitive instincts.

Thank you for the video. I have never felt bad a coach my 11 year old soccer daughter has played. My daughter has always been told the same thing. Be more aggressive and learn you positions. My daughter doesnt want to do that on ger time off. This sport is very expensive and time consuming. I try to push towards getting better, and learning how to work hard. It would be great for ger to make it to a higher level club and beyond high school. She would rather draw or look at YT on her time off or read books. I only ask that she puts in 15 minutes a day....15. More would be cool 😊but. Anyway, she just does not have the drive and it ends up in her not being comfortable in games. How do i get her to understand her responsibility to her teammates? Thanks.

Get her into a sport or activity she's actually interested in
@cruelsun92432 ай бұрын
@nikkionyx1926 She's been playing since 5. 12 now, and she says she 'likes' it. 'Like' is not acceptable for 2100 dollars plus gear, driving, or flying m, and you're just satisfied making the team and not trying to move up because you really don't want to work hard. Moving to a different sport would be the same. We are going to try it for one more year and if she isn't trying to do more we can find something else.
