Been a hot second since posting on here but I’m looking for my next adventure and would love to get back to the LTAD/S&C world. Let me know if you know of anything or if you’re willing to share this with your network, that would be awesome #opentowork #edtech #youthsport

@foggy_g0ggle Yea, I made the decision to stay away from the pizza/french fry method. It is just so hard to get them away from that habit. I thought the same thing about her boots but I think it’s just her finding stability in the hip because they were pretty snug!

#LTAD Thread: This weekend my daughter became independent skiing. This process has been a fun case study for creating joy around an activity and how to curate an intro to a sport experience. Our 3 rules:

- we are kind to each other
- we try our best
- we have fun

1/2

@JeremyFrisch @boiseparks is top of its class

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

Anyone can request a break or dictate a break if these aren’t being met. We talk about examples of meeting/not meeting each. There are only positive vibes. At the end of the day we debrief w/ stuff like this. This is what LTAD is all about! 2/2 #youthsport #physicalsctivity #PE

Anyone know of a good health curriculum k-12 or even in a specific grade level band? Or tag anyone here that you think may be helpful! Helping out a district by asking.

Been a minute! Here to share a cool project I’ve been working on with an awesome organization. I am on the board for this youth sport organization and we are starting up a podcast. Check out our first episode! @rihoward41 @Joe_Eisenmann @IdahoYouthSport @ltadnetwork @jamesbaker_8

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

@Joe_Eisenmann I’m in for a chapter! ✋🏼

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

@Joe_Eisenmann Sounds like you just need to write your own!

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

@Joe_Eisenmann I think a lot of it stems from a mindset of the grade being the end goal rather than a skill set. If we shifted toward a competency-based system similar to that in the medical field, students would walk away with both content expertise and skills needed.

me a max $100 (if approved through this review process) because I don’t have the receipt of the helmet I bought 5 years ago. Such frustrating/bad policy 2/2 @AlaskaAir #customerservice101 #youbrokeityoubuyit

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

@AlaskaAir forces me to gate check my ski boot bag, then damages my ski helmet to the point it isn’t safe, tells me it takes 4-6 weeks to be reviewed but may be denied b/c I reported it 48 hours after landing instead of 24 b/c I just opened the bag & they will only reimburse 1/2

When making plans, think big.

When making progress, think small.

@hulu_support I have watched games on @hulu @CBSSports apps in four different locations each with unique accounts and every one has the same issue. The Vikings game right now has cut our at least a half dozen times already

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

@cbssports has the worst…WORST…streaming broadcast of any channel. All season (on @hulu). First series and it has already cut out twice. Never on commercials though. What gives… #GoDawgs

[Peter Verdin, PhD @CoachVerdin]

@hulu_support 83705. Cut out at least 15 times on CBS. Same thing for every UGA football game on CBS this year
