COACHES CORNER: Developing Movement, Motion & Mobility for Swimmers: Vern Gambetta

Описание: Coaches Corner welcomes Vern Gambetta, one of the leading innovators, practitioners, and experts on athlete development and progression; specifically in terms of their strength and athleticism. Vern has worked with Major League Baseball Teams, Elite Track & Field Athletes, and most recently, several USA Swimming Gold Medal Clubs, including Dynamo, Carmel, Mason Manta Rays, and Sarasota Sharks where he's currently working with their athletes on a regular basis.

Among many principals, Vern's philosophy centers around creating "Fundamental Movement Skills," that empower athletes to understand how to effectively and efficiently move through the water with greater explosiveness and speed. Throughout the episode you'll learn about the key aspects behind teaching your athletes to develop skills that increase their spatial awareness and why that is critical to improved performance.

Vern illustrates the significance of the following skillsets:

1-Awareness of Center
2-Whole-Body awareness
3-Swimmers "swim like they walk," understanding the bi-pedal aspects of a human in water.

3-Creating spaces for free and structured play.
4-Incorporating push-pull, lunge-squat, jump-hinge, crawl-climb movements in your dry-land.

5-Recovery.

This is an episode that parents, athletes, team administrators, and coaches won't want to miss!
