Fitness vs Fatigue

Fitness vs Fatigue

More and more, I see athletes schedule training sessions every day of the week.  I don’t know if it’s just because they can’t sit still, they are worried about losing fitness, or for many of us exercise has become a way of escaping the stress of everyday life, but this practice is likely leading to a decrease in your performance.  

Exercising and the Holidays

Exercising and the Holidays

This time of year can be stressful for all of us.  Between last minute shopping (only a couple of days left!), trying to assemble the kids toys, school plays, family parties, travel and everything else exercise can often be the first thing to go. Now listen closely, because I’m going to let you in on a secret known only at the highest levels of strength and conditioning.  Are you ready? Take a deep breath and relax. It’s OK. Missing some training sessions over the holidays doesn’t have to derail everything you’ve worked for.
