If you train hard but don't allow your body to regenerate, you're undermining the stimulus before it can take effect.

I’ve always believed that athletes who want to perform better should also think better — and part of that comes from learning beyond the gym.

Last month, I read three books that every athlete could benefit from, each offering a distinct perspective on performance, longevity, and focus.

Unlike specialised sports where training can focus on one domain, functional fitness demands concurrency — often within the same week, sometimes even in the same session. This complexity makes programming both a challenge and a necessity.

With nutrition, sleep, training structure, age, and training level all working together, athletes can optimize recovery, reduce injury risk, and sustain high performance over time.

It is easy to think that to be a great coach, the most significant priorities are getting a certification, writing structured training plans, and delivering well-structured sessions.
