Sports Coaching Jobs - How and Where to Find Them

Eli Harden

2014-10-01

Getting a job in sports coaching can be a very rewarding way to make a little money, give back to the community, or keep in touch with a sport you are getting too old to play yourself. Of course, you can also make money working for yourself coaching private lessons on LRNGO.com. Many parents also choose to teach sports to their children as bonding experience, but also they keep themselves and their children active and in shape.

If you are just looking to start out sports coaching, it is probably best to start to teach sports to children who are at a young developmental age. Jobs like these are usually on a volunteer basis or pay very little at all. However, they are important to develop your own basic coaching skills without the pressure of a higher paying sports coaching job.

To teach sports to younger children, it is important to remember to coach individuals as well as a team. While many sports are built aro...

Singing for Charles

Joel Robinson

2014-09-28

Singing for Charles Barkley might be a new career for Shaquille O’Neal. The 4-time NBA Champion shocked the world with his innovative lyrical skills back on May 27, 2011. Holding up a sign that saw Barkley in drag, Shaq began to sing and dance his heart out on “Inside the NBA.” To date, the video of his performance remains as viral as ever. In fact, the video has received well over 25,000 views on You Tube. As Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley, and Ernie Johnson laughed their heads off, Shaq continued to sing and dance to an infectious hip-hop beat. O’Neal is no stranger to hip-hop, as he appeared on the Fu-Shnicken’s “What’s Up Doc?” song and video several years ago. While Shaq was merely poking fun at his Barkley, countless fans enjoyed his live performance and improvisation.

The cardboard cutout of Barkley also soared in popularity last year. From San Antonio to New York, fans of the 11-time NBA All-star began carrying Barkley signs at games and events. Singing for Charles...

How Aerobics Teachers make Their Workouts Count

Sandy Jones

2014-09-23

Flexibility, strength training and cardio workout are just some of the hallmarks you can expect when you train aerobics. The word ‘aerobic’ has its origin in Greek; with the word “aero” meaning air, and “bios” meaning life. Literally, aerobic translates as ‘with oxygen’ or ‘living in the presence of oxygen’.

The underlying principle that is achieved when a person begins to train aerobics is that as the body is exercised, there is an increased need for oxygen. The heart begins pumping faster, the blood pumps quicker through the organs and tissue, oxygen is spread quickly throughout every part of the body. The lungs and circulation begin working at their peak capacity. As a person’s inner athlete has the opportunity to emerge when beginning to train aerobics, transformations occur. Increased health, vitality and happiness are noted results.

Each aerobic teacher might have their personal tips and area of expertise. There are different exercises or routines instructors use to...

Why You Should Learn Badminton

Ron Valdez

2014-09-16

Badminton is a less famous and yet still rather popular sport for all ages and sorts of people. It is especially widespread in Ireland, but also common in many parts of Europe, the US, and the rest of the world. It is extremely fun and competitive, and there are even badminton tournaments often held in different places around the US and Europe. Not only that, but badminton as a sport is very good for you. The benefits of badminton are many and varied.

Many people today are unaware that the sport of badminton originated in India as a recreational activity for British officers who were stationed there in the 18th century. One has to wonder what led to the idea, and some accounts show the sport to have been originally played with a ball of wool rather than a shuttle. However, as the game’s popularity grew, it soon spread back to England. Before the end of the century, a badminton association had been established along with the new sport’s first competition event.

The Fine Art of Sailing

Chris Young

2014-09-12

The water calls to you. The adventurer in you wants to experience sailing! And the good news is that sailing is really not all that hard to do.

If you are just starting out, you will want to consider doing some study and training before you get to experience sailing for yourself. There are many courses available, such as online courses which feature videos, instructional classes, and design calculators.

You will need lessons on navigation, safety concerns, and the workings of the sailboat itself. Each one in themselves could be an individual course, and some sailing schools will delve into these topics in depth. This is very helpful for the amateur who has not yet had the experience sailing that he or she will need before eventually going sailing without the help of an experienced sailor.

There are both private schools and charities that teach sailing, as well as online programs. You could even familiarize yourself with sailing via a sailing simulator. Or buy a set...
