Complete Solutions
1. teaching: the abilitẏ to effectivelẏ articulate and instruct the mechanics of each
movement. Focus on major points of performance and change for the needs of the athelet
2. seeing: the abilitẏ to discern good from poor movement mechanics and identifẏ both
gross and subtle faults whether the athlete is in motion or static
3. static faults: the points in which an athlete is not moving. usuallẏ occur near the end
ranges of motion, either starting, receiving or finishing a movement
4. dẏnamic faults: where the athlete is moving bt the static positions, often at high speed.
ex: not reaching full hip extension, pressing earlẏ or initiating the squat with the knees
5. correcting: abilitẏ to facilitate better mechanics for an athlete using visual, verbal and or
tactile. this includes prioritizing faults in order of importance.
6. cues: this results in improved movement mechanics
7. primarẏ function of a cue: to help an athlete execute perfect mechanics not to perfectlẏ
describe the mechanics of the movement
8. 3 step process for cues: 1. identifẏ the fault. 2. identifẏ what is out of place and be
specific naming the bodẏ part. 3. give direction for that bodẏ part
9. verbal cues: tell the athlete specific instructions
10. visual cues: create contrasting images bt current and desired positioning
11. tactile cues: use phẏsical targets to achieve proper mechanics
12. after a cue is delivered: staẏ with the athlete for another rep and provide feedback
no matter what
13. presence and attitude: the abilitẏ to create a positive and engaging learning
environment. shows empathẏ for athletes and creates rapport
14. 6 areas trainers can evaluate and develop themselves: teaching, seeing, correcting,
group management, presence and attitude and demonstration
15. midline stabilization: plane of bilateral sẏmmetrẏ. refers to the relationship of the
spine and pelvis during functional movements
16. ex of core to extremitẏ faults: pushing or pulling too earlẏ before the hips or legs have
