E. 46 How To Adjust Your Training For Better Results

In this episode, I discuss the realities of training intensity and recovery, particularly for athletes balancing multiple lower-body sessions in a week.

I also delve into strategies for improving execution, managing fatigue, and setting realistic expectations for progress. Whether you're a competitive athlete or a fitness enthusiast, this episode provides valuable insights to enhance your training routine.
