Why I find triathlon so interesting - the many moving parts… You have the components noted by @stevemagness , but for each of the three disciplines Then, how do these components support / negate each other A puzzle to be solved / balance to be found for each individual 🧩

This is real. Requires discipline and commitment to take care yourself just like it does to take care of everyone else. #coachwellness

Notes from the last 25 days on camp - a mixture of performance / more holistic stuff Key themes for me: - Culture - Knowing your why and being purposeful - The ‘how’ behind giving athlete ownership is more complex than most give credit
Written from the perspective of team games but is definitely neglected in individual sports. Race craft in middle distance running / triathlon / cycling can be coached and isn’t emphasised enough (imo)

The kids who come to college used to being motivated by mom, dad, or coach often don’t make it. That motivation works in the short term, but it quickly fades. To be successful over the long haul, we all need motivation that comes from deep within: thegrowtheq.com/quit-trying-to…
“Strong views, loosely held” 👌🏻
This scene from Cool Runnings hit me hard: "A gold medal is a wonderful thing, but if you're not enough without it, you'll never be enough with it." One of the most significant lies we tell ourselves: "If I get [X], then I'll be happy." It's easy to convince yourself that…
Little newsletter for @TMR_Coaching on swimming / running drills and their application… Do they work? How should you apply them? What comes first, being a well conditioned athlete, or good technique? tmrcoaching.com/race-insights/…
Very relevant to “work-life balance” in elite coaching and sport Coaches / athletes that thrive in elite environments (imo) see their sport as a source of fuel to ‘plug into’. 🪫➡️🔋 Sometimes getting things in ‘balance’ comes from more of the good stuff ☯️

The complex made simple 👌🏻 🧠
95 percent of coaching is helping people get out of their own way: •Overthinking •Comparison to others •Self-doubt •Not doing the thing you ACTUALLY want to do •Trying to make things happen when what's required is time and space (you know this!) •Fear of walking away
Good training advice from Jakob Ingebrigtsen in his chat with @RUN_DMC_88 of @CitiusMag "One of the biggest mistakes a lot of people do is they go too hard in training, and that's basically because of their mentality. They don't believe in themselves."
Delighted with how the new TMR Coaching website has turned out. Lots of time, energy and creativity from @alecsa_stewart and @pkorac tmrcoaching.com
👏👏 A work of art!!
A good one for coaches getting their head into how the different zones, intensity distribution and periodisation / tapering look in practice at the elite level. Notice the explanation and deliberate lack of definition in zones at the start of the ‘Intensity Zones’ section👇🏼

One of the most balanced and thought provoking discussions I’ve heard yet on the ‘trans debate’ in sport. I still see myself in the “I don’t know enough to have an opinion” category but listens like this are definitely a gateway to a well rounded perspective on a tricky issue

@SocialWealth Well, if you have "average potential" it becomes apparent pretty quickly, long before you put in 1000+ hr/years for a mediocre result. However, if you have "good but not world class" potential, it's enough to entice an athlete to go all in. The reality, of course, is that there…
