Our Great Coach on this episode is Vésteinn Hafsteinsson.
Vesteinin is an Icelandic Olympic discuss thrower who is now considered the most successful discus coach in the history of the sport. He represented his native country at 4 summer Olympic games and five world championships. As a coach he has worked with World and Olympic champion Gerd Kanter and Olympic silver medalist Joachim B. Olsen and is currently coaching Daniel Ståhl and Simon Pettersson the gold and silver medalists at the Tokyo Olympics. In all his athletes have won 19 international championships medals including five medals from in the Olympic Games. Vesteinn sounds a lot like Arnsold Sw and as a result I was on my toes for this terriric interview with a coach who has a deep fuctiponal specialization.
some of the key highlights were:
- His view that athletes are owned by society and so must be good role models.
- How he lays out the path to an Olympic medal requiring 70 training campes, 200 meets and 4000 training sessions.
- The role that speed and rhythm play in his training. And how describes how this must come together in the 1 second when someone throws a discuss.
- And The importance of happiness and calmness and how he helps his athletes find this so that they can perform at their best.
