Helping Coaches and Athletes Manage
Change
We live in
constantly changing times, where the only we can be certain of is that things
are not likely to remain the same for very long! Changes can be
run-of-the-mill, such as fixture changes; or they can be momentous, such as
losing a key player to injury, or having your budget for the coming season
halved. Planned changes (such as taking over from another coach and
teaching your new athletes different ways to perform the same skills) are
usually much easier to manage than unexpected or uncontrollable changes (such
as one of your key players receiving a suspension). Whether the changes are big
or small, planned or unexpected, the more adept you are at coping with them,
the easier the changes will be for both you and your athletes.

Great Cross Training activities for Judo
Attending a Brazilian Jujitsu, MMA or Sambo Class:
Brazilian Jujitsu has some amazing techniques that
can really benefit your Judo game. If you are close to burning out then attend
a Brazilian Jujitsu class. You will definitely learn a thing or two and still
do something that will benefit your Judo game.
Do some Olympic weight lifting:
Weight lifting is a perfect cross training sport
for Judo. Many competitive Judoka do a lot of power cleans and snatches as part
of their strength programs. If you are sick of Judo why not go and fine tune
your Olympic weight lifting technique. You will develop more full body power
and learn something new.
Rock climbing:
Rock climbing involves a lot of upper body strength, grip strength, balance and co-ordination. Take a mate rock climbing and you both will not only have a great time but also develop stronger fingers and forearms that will greatly affect your Judo game. Stronger forearms mean a stronger grip on your opponents' gi.

Kettlebells:
If you are getting a bit burnt out why not try a
kettlebell class. Kettlebells are a great way to build a strong core and
develop awesome cardio. Working with kettlebells also really works you
co-ordination and grip strength. Many gyms these days run kettlebell classes so
have a look around for a class nearby.
Cross fit:
Cross fit is the newest fitness craze going around
at the moment. Cross fit includes various power exercises such as Olympic lifts
and combines them with body-weight exercises such as push ups, burpees and chin
ups. Cross fit workouts are always very intense and will have you wishing you
never walked through the gym doors. Cross fit, like most things, has its flaws
but is still a great activity to include into your cross training list.
