Coaching Linda
This morning is a tough workout logistically to coach if you don’t have a plan. I thought I’d share my lesson plan with you guys in order to get you to think about how to problem-solve through difficult situations and to ensure we are delivering the best coaching experience for our athletes. I've attached a photo of this morning's class for reference.
Does Your Workout Program Work?
The article begins by discussing the importance of having a well-designed workout program. The author states that a good workout program should be tailored to your individual fitness goals, experience level, and lifestyle. It should also be challenging enough to help you improve, but not so challenging that it leads to injury.
The author then goes on to discuss some common mistakes that people make when designing their workout programs. One common mistake is to focus too much on cardio and not enough on strength training. Cardio is important for cardiovascular health, but strength training is essential for building muscle and improving bone density. Another common mistake is to do too much too soon. When you start a new workout program, it's important to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts over time.
Does Stress Cause Weight Gain?
"When we experience stress, our bodies release a hormone called cortisol. Cortisol can increase our appetite and cravings for unhealthy foods, such as sugary snacks and processed foods."
"Stress can also lead to changes in our sleep patterns, which can further contribute to weight gain. When we don't get enough sleep, our bodies produce more ghrelin, a hormone that makes us feel hungry."
"Finally, stress can lead to changes in our physical activity levels. When we're stressed, we're more likely to skip workouts or choose less active activities."

Navigating Uncertainty
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. A saying that you are probably familiar with.
Throughout our lives, we are forced to deal with ambiguous situations. Maybe you are starting a new job or going to your first day of school and you are unclear what you are supposed to do. Perhaps you are a business owner and a global pandemic prevents you from offering your services to your customers. While dealing with unfavorable situations can be challenging, it can also offer us an opportunity to learn and help develop us into a better person or business. The next time you are dealing with an uncertain situation, try to be positive and make the best of it…you just might learn a new skill that you can use in the future.
