Rafe’s primary specialization is parkour, and he also has experience in modern training disciplines such as sprinting, basketball, gymnastics, crossfit, FRC, modern dance and many others. Rafe’s passion to is help people build the physical practice that will help make them the strongest, most adaptable and resilient version of themselves in movement and in life. This episode furthers our topic from last week, which is lessons learned from our “downtime” from in-person coaching, as well as how we are training and learning without our typical gym facilities. Times where things “contract” (as opposed to the typical expansion), as well as times of necessity are always powerful learning experiences, and I’ve learned something valuable from each of the 6 coaches in this short series, and I know you will as well. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. Timestamps and Main Points How spending so much time running a business had taken Paul Cater away from the core of training itself Expanding the idea of storytelling in a training session and the importance of creativity in coaching How sprinting should be a solid root of an athlete or even coach’s movement and training practice How Rachel Balkovec has been adjusting her training routine since being taken from her typical gym How Rachel maintains awareness, as well as trains, her breathing in various situations Things Rachel is learning in general in this time period How Rafe’s personal practice hasn’t been altered due to his “atypical” training environment How a typical play session in nature can shake out for Rafe Comparing the physical effects of natural parkour to other barbell practices How introducing obstacles and challenges into running can improve engagement and variability “It’s been a blessing to be forced to stay home” Paul Cater “Most of the coaches I know and respect will put more of a priority 上 the barbell rather than the “sprint first” mentality, it’s the path of least resistance…. It’s harder to go outside and have a really in depth sprint session” Paul Cater “Every training session really, is an experience. Within that every day is a story, an epoch, a saga of overcoming. Hill running is a metaphor… there’s something about running up a hill” Paul Cater “There is something in animal intuition to ascend and to climb” Paul Cater “I’m not the star of the story, I have to make the athlete the protagonist” Paul Cater “I never pull a hamstring when I’m trying to catch a football” Paul Cater “My goal is to have everyone leave the gym (inside or outside) with a story to tell and an own, and some sort of own discovery of creativity and that boils down the the warmup” Paul Cater “These kids coming out of college are severely ill-equipped for teaching and engaging. It’s just a memorization game and a certification game” Paul Cater “Holding your breath underwater while you are performing physical tasks is… really hard! You get out of the water from this training and you are exhausted, but your body doesn’t feel “it”.” Rachel Balkovec “Holding your breath increases your CO2 tolerance” Rachel Balkovec “When I have time to myself, I really have more of an aware relationship with my breath” Rachel Balkovec “While I’m running, I’m trying to stay nasal breathing as long as possible” Rachel Balkovec “I try to take note of my breath and let that be the indicator of what’s going 上 with me physiologically speaking” Rachel Balkovec “Your body is so intelligent and often times will give you a signal of what is going 上 before you can process it… a lot of time we’re not cognitively aware, but our body is responding” Rachel Balkovec “I don’t think you have to study coaching to be better as a coach, sometimes… being a well-rounded human gives you perspective, I want to always understand a big picture global view and be able to relate to a lot of people ” Rachel Balkovec “That’s the level we are interested in: How do you make someone good at solving movement problems” 拉菲·凯利 “We evolved to move through (information rich) environments” 拉菲·凯利 “Why do you warm up? You need your body temperature to go up, you want to go through big ranges of motion, then you warm up also to get your nervous system and arousal up to an appropriate place and your emotions tuned in” 拉菲·凯利 “No plan survives contact with the environment” 拉菲·凯利 “Fundamentally it’s about being able to see the space, perceive it, and move through it… how do we improve the capacity of the athlete to move in their environment” 拉菲·凯利 “The outdoor environment is a forgotten aspect of our culture” 拉菲·凯利 “We fundamentally think that the purpose of your movement practice is the growth of you as a human being” Show Notes Evolve Move Play FREE Guidebook to Natural Parkour and Play Evolve Move Play Natural Parkour Course 50% OFF Membership
