AOD ETHOS
DEVELOPMENT
Set your goals and understand where you want to go and where you need to grow. We’ll help to provide structure and accountability where you need it most. There are many areas to focus on, our main aim will be to support your physiological and psychological growth as a person and an athlete.
PERFORMANCE
It may sound trivial, but results matter. We want to quantify all areas of your performance to ensure your growth is in the right direction. We work with a lot of competitive athletes and as such have detailed competition protocols as well as year-round advice on how to potentially maximise your performance when it matters most.
GRATITUDE
Celebrate your growth and appreciate what you have achieved. Focusing on the process and how it has dictated the outcome. We as AOD coaches not only preach this ethos but practice it ourselves – providing an ever-growing support network of coaches, athletes and health professionals is something we’re extremely passionate about.
