The biggest reward of being a coach is when your training program works like magic and your student meets their goal in competition. As a lifter and a coach, I am constantly learning new elements to writing training programs and teaching different individuals. When it comes to training for Kettlebell Sport, there aren't many resources out there for coaches. When it comes to mindset training for a 10 minute set - which is arguably more important than the physical training - I don't know of any resources at all. Most of what I learn and pass on to my students is self-taught, through my own experiences and the knowledge I've gained from my own coaches (Steven Khuong, Sara Nelson, Denis Vasilev).  I'm human and I doubt myself at times, thinking that maybe I'm too inexperienced or young or don't have enough knowledge to coach an entire team - but this competition reinforced that I'm on the right track.

You can imagine how happy I am after all 11 members of my kettlebell team hit new personal bests at the California Long Cycle Championships on Saturday!
