I have taken the last year to develop my online coaching services. Lockdown showed me the importance of online coaching and how beneficial the product can be. I limited myself to working extensively with my client Pala in Sweden to develop my service and offerings.
His goals are to increase performance in MMA, this should involve increasing strength and power as successful mixed martial artists need to generate high force and speed in both grappling and striking situations (Tack, 2013).
It is vital for Athletes and members of the general public to avoid injurues (James, 2014).
Pala is amazing to work with and has great attention to detail which my job easier to do. We have been working together for almost a year now and he has had great results in all our lifts as shown by the above charts and videos. It is important that when you train athletes you do not build up too much fatigue in the weight room and our regular correspondence along with video feedback always me to monitor fatigue and maximise performance.
Please check out the videos below to visualise some of the improvements made.
