Three polls: longer-term goal setting for your MTB skill development
My goal is to get you thinking about goals
I’m working on a post about the science of longer-term goal setting for MTB skills development. When you want to get better, how can goal-setting help? What strategies are ineffective?
I’m curious about your experience setting MTB-related goals and whether you plan to do more in the coming weeks/months/year.
I’ve created three quick polls for you to take below, designed to get you thinking about goal-setting.
After you take the polls, add a comment that gives context for your answers. Doing that might help clarify your thinking, and it might help inform me as I work on the upcoming post.
I have always been a person who likes to set a challenging goal and work towards it consistently. It is part of the fun for me.
I have a goal of being able to ride a wheelie for 100 yards. I've created sub goals of 10 yards, 25 yards, 50 yards, etc. It definitely helps keep discouragement at bay to focus on the next sub goal. The same applies to my goal of bunny hoping 24" consistently and correctly.
