How far is too far for a coach to push an athlete to be successful?!
It's something I face in training all the time. Should I bleed, and spend every day in pain just to be good at a sport? Are coaches abusive and unrealistic?

I think in part the reason coaches are so abrasive is if you cannot take the mental hurt, you wont be able to take the pyshical hurt (this obvioiusly isnt true how ever)

Well, all the great athletes get hurt physically I believe...
But it depends on you, are you willing to make such a sacrifice...

well that is not complety true, although you have to sarcifice a lot.. The most professional athletes are getting minimal wages.
Matt, I don't know how many times I got home bleeding after I had a training.. (although in 95% of the cases I had to blame myself )..
No pain, no gain.. right ?!?

my son is pushed quite hard in football training.....which he doesnt mind...but he isnt happy that all the players got given a letter about not swearing at coaches when the coaches are swearing their heads off at the players..

No, they strive to win and help their players.
I would be probably the toughest coach on a group of kids.. lol

I don't mind to get pushed a bit during practise. It makes me better and give me more discipline. It happens that I come home bleeding.. me vs hurdle

I don't know... I think if you start injurying yourself that's way too much.
It amazes me to hear that girls (and guys) in things like dance or gymnastics will be pushed so far to bleed or injure themselves, and this is considered normal?
I don't think I'd want my daughter (if I had one) in gymnastics
