WHAT CAN A PROPER TECHNIQUE REALLY GIVE YOU
In
the sea of advice on sports techniques available these days
from various sources, it is easy to get lost and forget what's
important, what's not important and what simply "comes
with the territory". To truly understand the importance
of acquiring the proper technique, one must clearly see the
benefits of doing so. To many, technique is nothing, but a
word that is so often used by others. My technique, your technique,
technique this, technique that... before you know it, technique
becomes a trendy topic and a blur. So, let's cut through the
clutter and clarify the true significance of the proper technique
in our athletic endeavors.
First and foremost, technique in sports is the mandatory
base level to start from. Understand, if you're starting to
train without learning the technique of your chosen sport
first, then you automatically start at a much lower level.
Let's put it this way, on a scale of 0-10, where 0 is the
most basic level and 10 is the most advanced, without technique
you start at -5 (that's negative five). So before you start
worrying about your results, progress and goals, focus on
learning how to actually do something, i.e. how to move correctly.
And as we often say - keep things in a correct hierarchy and
you will not just bypass the unnecessary work and skip injuries,
you will literally help yourself reveal and then hone your
true talents to their full extent and more.
A proper technique for any chosen sport gives you the following
and more:
RED CARPET ENTRANCE. By starting correctly you immediately
place yourself on the next level of training and not just
one step, but several steps closer to your goals, your desires
and your dreams. Compared to folks that take the old-fashioned
"just do it" approach and then wonder, why progress
is slow to come and why are they plagued by injuries, you
take the smarter "common sense" approach that produces
real results and helps you avoid injuries. By doing so, you
enter the game as pro, elite and Olympic athletes do. Cool
company to keep, don't you think?
VIP TREATMENT. Yes, other athletes will admire your good
form and will want to mingle and know your secrets, but what
we're really talking about is the VIP treatment that your
body will get with the proper technique, like the Pose Method.
* No overuse injuries
* Speed
* Agility
* Balance and Coordination
* Lesser impact on the body
* Quicker recovery
* Lesser performance related stress
* Better fatigue control
* Maximum use of your potential
* Freedom of movement
* Dramatically improved results
UNSHAKABLE CONFIDENCE. In the broader sense, this particular
trait offers a whole new lifestyle. In sports, confidence
in yourself produced and supported by knowing what you're
doing, translates into maximum enjoyment of the activity,
high quality of performance, breaking records, gold medals,
Olympic titles, etc. Knowing what you're doing eliminates
the uncertainty that can drain your energy, and knowing that
you're doing it right takes the fear out of the equation.
1/ Maximum enjoyment of the sport
2/ Boost of enthusiasm
3/ High quality performance
CONTINUOUS SUCCESS comes from the combination of everything
we mentioned above. There is obviously more to it than we
can describe in this article, but a proper technique is one
of the most fundamental things in sports and a lot of other
areas in life, and it plays one of the most important roles
in achieving and sustaining your success. A good technique,
like Pose Method, provides you with a standard model for reference,
a blueprint, so to say. What does that mean? It means that
if you encounter problems in your technique that produce pains
or hinder your performance, you have a guideline that helps
you figure out what the problem is and what to do to correct
it. This will allow you to continue to successfully participate
in your sport for as long as you desire.
