Isn't hard work the main factor in athlete development? 🤔
The Biological Age (Maturation) Levels of our children in the developmental age are different from each other even if they are at the calendar age. According to scientific studies, this difference can vary by +/- 2 years in children of the same calendar age. For example, the biological age of a 10-year-old child may be 8 or 12. This situation is characterised as Early, Normal and Late developmental periods of children. Physical parameters are at the forefront [...]

Children's Growth Map: Estimation of Adult Height with Maturity-Based Cumulative Height Velocity Curves
FLOW Theory in sport means planning the training content according to the skill level of the athlete. Biological age (maturity level); refers to the physical EARLY-NORMAL-EARLY development periods of the athlete during the development period. It has been proven by scientific studies that the biological maturity levels of children and young people in the developmental age vary by +/- 2 years according to the calendar age. Athletic performance values in children and young people at each biological maturity stage; [...]
