FOSBURY FLOP

There are coaches who seek empty forms devoid of meaning, and others who pursue functions full of purpose. Some work on “ideal” decontextualized patterns, while others encourage uncertain and adaptive behaviors. Some memorize, store, and implement drills and models mechanistically, while others explore and adapt efficiently to the uniqueness of each context they encounter. The same applies to those in charge of methodology. After all, they are coaches in a different context, with a different label. Joan Alcaraz belongs to the latter group, and he shares how he approaches this as the Methodology Director of RCD Mallorca. Now, the conversation in Spanish. The English version is available on the YouTube video of the episode.
