Episode description
A question I got in the last webinar was, “If most competitor programs don’t follow these principles, how come there are athletes who follow them who are successful?”
This question really is a bigger question of, “What can we learn from the training of elite athletes?”
The short answer is: a lot. Of course.
Here is a frame that I use to understand why elite athletes are successful.
1. Training Age
How long has this athlete been training?
2. Set Point
What did they come out of the box with?
3. Trainability
How fast and how much do they respond to training?
