Training young golfers - PROCESS: Socialization

The ‘Socialization’ principle can help young golfers to:

Training young golfers - #PROCESS: Enjoyment

'Enjoyment is key to an effective training environment. If a young golfer enjoys the training experience they are more likely to return and develop regular, effective training habits' @BenLangdown

Training young golfers - PROCESS: Overload

'Where possible, coaches should look to assess the athlete’s response to the exercise stress and adjust the overload through frequency of training, intensity, volume and exercise selection'

Training young golfers - PROCESS: Progression

Progressive overload is a well-documented training principle that allows athletes to achieve training adaptations. Progression is part of the PROCESS when training young golfers

'I base a golfer’s starting point on the needs analysis to understand previous training experiences, their current weekly load (e.g. other training/sports/golf practice/school sport etc.), injury history, movement competency, goals, & profiling, among other factors.' @BenLangdown

@ArchieQualt @NeilHarveyGolf @CoachNow_App Thanks for the kind words, Archie. Glad you're finding it useful to balance training & golf loads. As you continue to log data the percentage on the dashboard will normalise - because you have no/little data to begin with, it seems very high but 2 weeks of full data sorts it.
