Performance Strategy Session (50 Min)

PL8 Methods: Performance Strategy Session

50 minutes · £120

Your Performance Strategy Session is the starting point for building your Roadmap. The outcome is a tangible Initial Performance Roadmap Brief built from focused conversation about what you want to achieve, where you are now, and the set of activities most likely support your journey. 

What we'll undertake together. 

During your 50-minute session, we'll work together to unpack your goals, current training, and the constraints you've already identified (sidenote, we might identify more together). We'll take a broad cross-section of your performance influences, everything from nutrition, training, and recovery to how you prepare for competition, test and track your body and the practical realities of fitting it all in alongside life in general.

Ultimately, the goal is to identify where, across all the activities you could be undertaking, your resources are most likely to generate the greatest return on investment towards the outcome you're chasing. I'm talking here about how you might best structure elements like your focus, recovery capacity, attention, technical learning load, and social battery spends. 

We'll use this conversation to establish the highest priorities, uncover assumptions, and park questions that will inform the Initial Performance Roadmap Brief I'll build and you'll receive following our strategy session.

Before your session: 

You'll receive a short Performance Strategy Questionnaire to complete before we meet.

You'll also need to give some thought to the following (you might have already done this):

• Your timeline: you decide what we're roadmapping towards and over what period.

• Your major goals: what do you actually want to have achieved along the way?

• Your anticipated constraints: what might make the journey difficult or require course correction? Consider dimensions like work, family, travel, finances, injuries, health, technical training access, recovery capacity or anything else competing for your internal resources.

You don't need to arrive with all the answers. That's what the session is for. But the better we understand the destination and the realities we're working within, the more useful your roadmap can be.

After your session

I'll use what we've uncovered to construct your Initial Performance Roadmap Brief.

This document will summarise your current position and communicated trajectory, calling out the major constraints and priorities we've uncovered. I'll outline the areas, coaching methods, and potential other resources I believe offer the greatest potential return on your available resources. I'll also note parked questions and unknowns we discovered for you to reflect on outside our time together. 

You'll also receive clear next steps and recommendations for moving forward. This may include signposting to services and resources beyond what I can offer here at PL8 Methods. 

Depending on what we find, recommendations towards nutritional coaching, performance testing, competition preparation, recovery strategy development or other specialist support. Where appropriate, I'll also explain how PL8 Methods can integrate these elements for straightforward, refined implementation as we develop your roadmap.

This Initial Performance Roadmap Brief is intended to help you figure out what actually worth doing.

Consider it a solid blueprint for negotiating the journey your actively choosing to undertake. Don't worry, there are snacks and wonders along the way.
