As a coach of juniors PLEASE do not push this youngster to this level, get a stategy sorted whereby you train with someone else, and let him be the dominant one when HE trains with you
I look forward to your further coments
Coaching on the other hand is leading, encouraging, educating, mentoring & much more, your charges can be better or not as good or anywhere in between, it does not matter because you are not partnering you are coaching, it is not your training session, you are there to coach. So in short dragging a 14 year old on your training is just wrong, unless you are coaching him, setting aside your goals & aims & cocentrating on his.
How demoralising do you imagine it might be at 14 to have to keep dropping back/stopping because you can't keep up?
