Training BitesEp 74 - Coaching Language with Daniel and AllanDaniel Lucchini @strength_couch_dan and Allan Pham @coach.alpha join me to talk about the selective language we use as coaches. The longer I spend as a coach and trainer, I realise just how powerful language can really be. How often have you made the mistake of thinking that your behaviour is associated with your identity, and so far as your happiness? Conversely, as a coach, how many times have you associated particular behaviours or training PBs as synonymous with someone's identity. If you are unaware, this CAN be potentially dangerous. Listen in.
2019-03-0714 minTraining BitesEp 73 - Horizontal Coaching Relationships with Daniel LucchiniDaniel Lucchini @strength_couch_dan joins me again to talk a lot of trash about income tax... but mainly to talk about horizontal coaching relationships. Horizontal coaching relationships assume that the people involved are equal; and as a coach we should be conscious of our language and how we might disrupt this relationship. For example 'you did well,' is a vertical statement. You are qualifying them. More details in the episode!
