#303 - Looking In The Mirror

A lot of times our first instinct is to blame someone or something, but the truth usually sits within us. Our effort, our consistency, and our timing. Today, we talk a lot about off season and the best ways to make sure you're tinkering from a smart place. We also look at the concept of training backwards and the importance of building a chassis that can support the engine. 

Topics:

• Fun time of the year
• Chomping at bit or struggling to move on?
• Resting on your laurels?
• Hardest part of being a coach
• Planning backwards
• Looking at your A-Race a year out
• Building trust and restraint
• Building the chassis vs engine
• Fast and short builds
• When training gets stale
• Intensity and distribution and stress
• Accumulated stress score
• When do you need intensity?
• Strategic Tinkering
• Do you take risks?
• Consistency vs. Modification
• Goals and Guilt
• What are we willing to sacrifice?
