Abstract
Athlete Development Pathways (ADP) are used worldwide as guides to optimal athlete development. Existing ADPs tend to centre physical development and competition performance and fail to account for the complex interaction of social, emotional, psychological, cognitive-motor, and physical factors in human development. This article reimagines the ADP as a constraints-led, learning-based framework of lifetime periodisation. Synthesizing contemporary multi-disciplinary research and theory it takes a holistic approach to the complex, multi-factor reality of athlete development. It is proposed that such a framework supports a more human-centred and engaging sport pedagogy and may be more effective at improving both athletic performance and retention of athletes in sport. An ADP based on these concepts is presented.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
