I need ya'lls help :)

I have an employee who is 18yo and she is finishing highschool this year. Great girl and one of my best employees. She is an all around athlete; Soccer, tennis, track, ect. Shes 5'5" maybe six. About a buck thirty five.
She is getting ready for tennis season but she still has holiday weight and whats to be ~5lbs light on the fat, stronger a bit, and as agile as possible.
Heres the catch(s): She has a bit of a bumm ankle, rolled it. Not bad but is wearing a support and need to have it ready for action.
She is a mesomorph. Up until the last year or so she had always been heavy. She says ) ??? that she was at 165lbs. Im guessing about ten more. Mind you though, she is in good shape now. Good amount of muscle but a bit of pudge around her middle. She also only has ~30 days until her tennis trials.
And the last catch, Ive never researched/trained a girl so young! A young man, yeah. An older woman, yeah. But an 18 yo meso athlete?
I can help with her diet. I had her start a meal journal and also a training journal.
I would like your help! If you have any articles or threads that I could review that would be awesome. Or if you can directly help us with her goals that would be even better.

Thank you all,

Sphinx/Chris

No offense but it sounds like she needs to go to someone else for help. Someone with experience in helping female, high school athletes.

It's admirable that you want to help her but without any clue as to what to do, your attempt to help is actually a disservice and hindrance to her. You're going to help her after reading some articles...? Put her in touch with a local fitness coach who really knows how to help her.

Indeed. you are putting yourself in a awkward position as the girl's coach, nutritionist, and trainer. If she fails at the competition, she will not blame herself, but she will place all the blame on you.
Find someone else that will do the job and take blame! Or really bust your ass to help the girl! Time's a-wastin'!!! LOL
 
Agreed, this is probably more than I can truely help her with. Thanks for the no bull shit response yall. Happy lifting!
