Geddert on ‘talent’

Very rarely will your most talented kids go furthest in the sport.

Talent is only a piece of the puzzle.

John Geddert posted advice on how to deal with talented kids:

1- Let them lead you to the elite program rather than you drag them there.

2- Having talent and using talent- … there are talented athletes in every gym in the country. There are two things that separate those that achieve from those that don’t …

3- Take your time

4- Physical Abilities

5- Get Parents on Board

6- Efficient Training … keep the training hours manageable. Many of the top clubs in the world simply overtrain.

7- Flexibility … flexible when it comes to the athlete experiencing other events and activities

8- Seek help where needed

9- Train weaknesses

10- Live to fight another day
