There are three sports coaches, coaching a mixed team of athletes.
The first coach does a rigorous analysis of the abilities his players need. He analyses the anatomical structure of the perfect athlete and works out weight-training exercises for building up each important muscle.
The second coach decides that this is not the best approach.Rather than big powerful muscles, he feels that the players need to develop their skills in using the muscles. He creates a programme of endurance courses. He also thinks his players would work better if they knew why the different muscles acted as they did and how the body operates as a machine. So he builds work on anatomy and diet into his course.
The third coach decides that both these approaches have some good features but notices that the athletes don't like them very much. They are all keen to make the first team, but even so they often don't turn up to training sessions. He asks them what the problem is and what they would prefer to do. They say that the exercises and obstacle courses are very thorough and the information about diets is very relevant but it's all rather boring and repetitive. They would rather play some sort of game. The third coach then does another analysis. He works out what muscles and skills the players would use in a game of football or basketball and other activities.He then matches this analysis to the one done by the other coaches. He fnds that there is a large degree of similarity. So he designs a programme of activities: football,basketball and other team games. While the players are doing these activities, he watches them. Every now and then, he stops the activities and teaches them a new technique or tells them something about why their bodies act as they do, or he might give some advice on diet or exercises to improve a particular skill.
有三名体育教练，指导一个混合的运动员队伍。
第一个教练会对球员所需的能力进行严格的分析。他分析了完美运动员的解剖结构，并制定出锻炼每一块重要肌肉的重量训练方案。
第二个教练认为这不是最好的方法。他认为运动员需要发展的是使用肌肉的技巧，而不是强大的肌肉。他创建了一个耐力课程项目。他还认为，如果他的球员们知道为什么不同的肌肉会这样做，以及身体像机器一样是如何运作的，他们会表现得更好。所以他在课程中加入了解剖学和饮食方面的内容。
第三个教练认为这两种方法都有一些好的特点，但注意到运动员并不太喜欢它们。他们都渴望进入一线队，但即便如此，他们也经常不参加训练课。他问他们有什么问题，他们更愿意做什么。他们说，训练和障碍训练非常全面，有关饮食的信息也非常相关但这一切都很无聊，且重复。他们宁愿玩某种游戏。然后第三个教练做另一个分析。他计算出运动员在足球或篮球比赛和其他活动中所使用的肌肉和技能。然后，他将这个分析与其他教练所做的分析进行比较，他发现有很大程度的相似性。因此，他设计了一个活动方案：足球、篮球和其他团队游戏。当球员在做这些活动时，他观察他们。每隔一段时间，他会停止活动，教他们一种新的技术，或者告诉他们为什么他们的身体会这样，或者他可能会给一些关于饮食或锻炼的建议来提高某项技能。
