What are the causes of the faults?
Having assessed the performance and identified that there is a
fault then you need to determine why it is happening. Faults can be caused
by:
- Incorrect understanding of the movement by the athlete
- Poor physical abilities
- Fatigue
- Doschic (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) imbalances
- Emotional disturbances (anxiety, fear, anger, irritability, lack of self-confidence etc.)
- Poor co-ordination of movement
- Incorrect application of power
- Lack of concentration
- Inappropriate clothing or footwear
- Inappropriate equipment
- External factors e.g. weather conditions
