Today we give you the power to make your own decisions in training. As coaches we think it's important for athletes to learn through trial and error. As in really learning . . . along with, believing in your gut. We look at an example of someone who was coming off being sick and due for an FTP test. Did they rest, or know deep down that they were ready. Also, we talk about owning how you feel… giving your body a real chance to decide. We talk about how to look for signs of life in workouts. Living to 99 years old with a sharp mind. And the power of combining confidence with vulnerability.
