I am sometimes asked "what do I do with my time" or "what do I do to keep busy" well, here it is. The above pie-chart breaks down exactly what I do that relates to strength and conditioning and personal training
Training Individuals: This week I coached three individuals. One member of the spirit squad team that I am responsible for, and another soccer player that just dropped by and was looking for something new and quick to do. Lastly, I trained an older woman as part of a program that campus recreation is running. (I also work for campus recreation).
Training Teams: I had two sessions with Spirit Squad, one being 1-hour in duration and the second taking 30 minutes. I also trained the golf team twice per week at 30-minutes per session.
Training Myself: I continue to train about four to five times per week. This week I trained five times for a total duration of about 4.5-5 hours.
Class: This week I had two graduate level classes, one Tuesday morning and the second on Thursday evening. Each class lasted three hours.
Office Work: The majority of my week was spent with office work, research for one of my classes and designing new training templates in excel. In a future post, I will link some templates that you can print off and use yourself to keep track of your progress.
I've been around gyms, fitness centers and a number of strength and conditioning facilities for quite some time now. One thing I always found was that there is a lot of 'down' time in between sessions where teams and athletes are not working out. I didn't plan accordingly for this on my first day as I didn't bring my laptop or phone charger. Needless to say, it was a very long day. In future, I'll be sure to keep busy at the office in between sessions by studying, keeping updated with current research in strength and conditioning, as well as listening to a number of audio podcasts throughout the day.
Until next time,
Kevin
