Welcome back to part 2 of Training Youth Fighters! In this episode, we continue our exploration into the art of training youth fighters, focusing on the crucial concept of finding balance.

Join me as we dive deep into the intricacies of youth training methodology. We'll dissect the common pitfalls of early over-specialisation and the detrimental effects it can have on our budding athletes.

We explore why encouraging young fighters to engage in multiple sports not only enhances their overall athleticism but also reduces the risk of overuse injuries later on.

Through a comprehensive breakdown of different developmental phases, we emphasise the significance of building a solid foundation of skills and coordination before honing in on specific techniques and competition.

From the importance of diverse movement patterns to the psychological aspects of training, we leave no stone unturned in our quest to develop well-rounded, resilient athletes.
