What is training? Training is not about the hurt, pain, not about puking and being at the max in each workout. That is not training. Training is systematic; it incorporates hard workouts and easy workouts to allow the body to adapt. Work is easy, training is hard. Anyone can do mindless work that wears out the body; not very many can focus and put the pieces together to systematically improve performance over time.Training to achieve athletic excellence is about consistent mindful effort that goal driven. You don't need to be spectacular in training, but you must be consistent, steady and focused. The spectacular will come from the consistency. The effects of training accumulate over time. The process cannot be hurried. Focus on the fundamentals and build on basics and let the complexity happen. Train don't strain.Remember the old adage: Nothing easily attained is ever worthwhile and nothing worthwhile is easily attained.
