Did you know that according to the US Census, there are about 140,000 athletes, coaches, and umpires across the country? If that number includes you, then no doubt you’re always looking for ways to gain an edge. Amateur athletes are also keen to take their fitness and skill to the next level.
Video-based training is a great way for athletes to progress at a time and place that suits them. But forget your grandma’s old Jane Fonda tapes. We’re talking about the latest fitness coaching on demand that produces real results.
Professional Inspiration
Video-based classes that are led by professional athletes can inspire you to take your game to the next level. Whether the classes are recorded or live, you get to see how the pros structure their workouts and game prep.
This can be highly motivational. Seeing an athlete model their training gives you a higher level to aspire to. In-person classes can be mixed, with your rate of progress tied to how good your instructor is. Video-based training from professional athletes can show you what you need to do to get to the next level.
Psychology Today highlighted “exposure to high-level practice” as a key stimulus for positive adaptations made by successful athletes. But most of us, whether we’re college athletes or enthusiastic amateurs, do not have the time or resources to devote to practice that pro athletes have. Video-based training allows you to connect with high-level practice in a way that fits your schedule.
Pause and Perfect
Group classes can be a great way to learn from a pro, but they come with some notable disadvantages. Either the instructor has to go at the rate of the weakest participant, or some people get left behind. Video-based training irons out that particular kink.
You get to move at your own pace. Need a few seconds more to master a move, or want to see something again? Just pause, rewind, and take all the time you need. If you can keep the pace, it’s time to move on to more challenging workouts.
Personalized and Convenient
If you attend in-person classes each week, what you learn is in the hands of the instructor. However, with video-based training, you only access the content you want and need. This allows you to create a personalized program that truly meets your fitness and sports goals.
The timing is also down to you. Choose live classes that fit around your work and life schedule. And if you want to work out at 2 am, choose one of the trainer workouts waiting for you 24/7.
