Sprechen Sie Coach?: Wie Sie im Training richtig kommunizieren, um die Leistung Ihrer Athleten nachhaltig zu verbessern

by Nicklaas C. Winkelman

Verständliche und präzise Anweisungen zu geben ist eine Kunst, die jeder Coach beherrschen sollte. Denn eine unklare Anleitung im Training führt zu Fehlern in der Ausführung, was Verletzungen verursachen und die Leistung langfristig beeinträchtigen kann. Der Sportwissenschaftler Nick Winkelman zeigt, wie Sie als Coach effektiv und zielführend mit Ihren Athleten kommunizieren. Seine Methode bietet eine neue, psychologisch fundierte Sichtweise darauf, wie Sprache im Training richtig genutzt wird, um Fehler zu vermeiden und zu korrigieren. Indem Sie die Vorstellungskraft des Sportlers adressieren, versteht dieser Ihre Anweisungen nicht nur richtig, sondern verinnerlicht auch deren korrekte Umsetzung dauerhaft. Zahlreiche kreative Beispiele dienen als Lassen Sie Ihren Athleten eine gefährliche Schlucht überwinden, statt einfach nur weit zu springen, oder sich beim Deadlift aus den Fängen einer Riesenkrake befreien. So unterstützen Sie ihn optimal im Lernprozess und holen das Beste aus ihm heraus!

Just what I needed. This book is an incredibly scientific breakdown of the thought, habit, and language used for changing an athletes movement patterns. He included lots of research and studies to support his suggestions. I definitely skipped a few sections that just got really detailed and fast-forward to the "nuggets" I could use. Overall a great read if you feel like a broken record who can't get through to your athletes.

Coach better

An excellent resource to help you reflect on and reframe the language you use as a coach. Well researched and accessible. Useful models provided to help you practically apply more effective cues.

One of the BEST books I’ve read about training and coaching.

This is a MUST for any coach out there looking to improve their coaching game.

I’ve been in the industry a long time and this was truly a game changer.

The words we use when coaching matter! This book absolutely changed the way I looked at coaching and made me come to realize that I was over coaching in every way. If you really want to improve your delivery and impact during coaching, this is a great resource. I cannot recommend this book enough!

The first part of the book was interesting and probably useful once I’ve had a chance to think about it in more detail. I would have given it more stars, except the “25 movement sequences” were all pretty much the same. Some variety would have been useful.

Very detailed and organized book. Is much more like a textbook so it is not always the most enjoyable read per se. Overall though great information.
