There is no secret to the fundamental tenet of training. Simply put, we apply physical stress to our bodies interspersed with periods of rest, which results in physiological adaptation. If done right, our bodies adapt in such a way that allows us to perform longer and faster come race day. The complexities arise in working out the details. How much stress should the program introduce, in what durations, how often, and at what intensities?
We are all unique individuals and the answers to these questions can only be answered by understanding the various factors that make up who we are as athletes. Athletic background, competitive experience, physiological characteristics, psychological makeup, response to different types of training, stress in other areas of life, age, and goals are some of the factors that must be considered when designing and implementing an appropriate training program.
Successful performance therefore requires a systematic approach to training. Integrative Multisport provides a variety of coaching packages to help you eliminate the guesswork and train systematically. Contact us today to find out more and get started.
