Training should do something. Build strength. Build resilience. Keep you working hard without falling apart. That's my whole philosophy, everything else is detail. Three things I focus on: STRENGTH TRAINING Barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, bodyweight. You'll learn to move well under load - safely, and in a way that actually holds up over time. PRACTICAL MOBILITY & FLEXIBILITY Move better, actively and passively. Better posture, fewer injuries, more range. Not stretching for the sake of stretching. WORK CAPACITY Developing your aerobic engine and lactate threshold, so you can sustain effort and intensity without redlining.
