PMPC202 - Spotting the Handstand

The Power Monkey Podcast

Today's "movement focused" episode revolves around the skill of spotting. We believe that this truly is a skill that is all too often discredited or overlooked outright.

As a coach, having the ability to spot someone correctly serves many purposes. Obviously creating a safe environment is primary, but even at higher levels, the ability to spot an athlete through a movement so that they can feel what their body is supposed to be doing with proper form is so incredibly important. Usually what we see is someone failing rep after rep of a movement while losing ideal body position and technique. This will only serve to engrain that poor technique.

Learn to spot properly, and learn to use spotters liberally. Your technique and body will thank you for it.
