Attention To Detail
I recently attended a Coaches Prep course in Boulder. This would be a course to help coaches transition to the highly anticipated Crossfit Coaches Certification, possibly coming within the next 3-6 months. The biggest import that I got from these two days was the need for attention to detail. The movements that we coach at Crossfit Verve (functional, multi-jointed movements) are so rich, you really can’t stop getting to know them. You simply keep peeling back layers to discover how you can further refine them. To do this, you have to know the movement, study it, and then be able to “see” it.
Seeing a movement can be a fairly ambiguous term. If you pick up a PVC pipe, put it on your shoulders, and jump it over your head, I could see that you were trying to do a push jerk. But it that all? If your hips don’t extend on your drive, do I see that? If your knees dip in on your dip, do I see that? If your mechanics are solid, can I “see” how maybe I can still improve that movement? That is our challenge as coaches. To constantly know, and see the movements better. As in any craft, the learning never stops. Attention to detail is very important to the coaching staff at Verve. We consider the pursuit of it our responsibility, and we hope it shows.
