Description
Fitness sport churns a lot of athletes.
Most people last 2-5 years in serious training.
Two things make athletes quit:
1. Tissue integrity
2. Stress-response fatigue
Here's how to keep these at bay so you can realize your potential.
Two principles: Get training designed for you (individualized) and training with seasons (periodized)
What to do today:
1. More easy training
Less dynamic eccentrics (any sport-specific movement)
More cyclical work (machines)
Less competing (2-4 times a year is good)
Less sport-specific exercise selection
More isometrics (holds and carries)
2. Deload every 3-5 weeks of building
3. Practice your paces with intervals
