Getting Better or Getting Tired

I see so much "stuff" out there now that just makes the athlete tired. Just making a workout hard or an exercise an butt-kicker does not make it a productive workout or a beneficial exercise. Each exercise should be carefully chosen to fit into the overall program. Each training session needs to be strategically placed in the context of the previous workout and subsequent workouts, in other words as part of an overall plan of development to meet the athletes' needs.

If you are logging onto the Internet each day and downloading the workout of the day, you are not meeting the above criteria. It is just work, just training, in all probability it is hard, just like yesterday and the day before and the day before that, all hard. Step back and take a close look at what you are doing. In all probability you are probably just finding different ways to make your athletes or your self tired, but are you really making them/yourself better?

Need a PLAN? Athletic Republic can draft one for you? By using our philosophy TEST-TEACH-TRAIN, every athlete is train specifically as an individual. Our PLAN for the athlete is to train their weaknesses to be their strengths and to train their strengths to be even stronger.
