How do you think about training? Are you going for race times or truly working on things that will make you better? Today, we look at different mindsets and how to not get trapped in training paces and performances. We look at the full forest of a race and how you can have a more objective view of your training, your progress, and future racing success. Long swim sets, noodle arms, tire pressure, arm fatigue resistance, inputs for the best days. So many athletes are naive or in denial. Get a clear picture of what’s making you better and how to judge your performances with the big picture in mind.
