Is Training a Plan?

Will Kirousis

Is training a plan? Keep the conversation open

When you expect your training to feel like a clear and precise plan, it can end up feeling rigid and inflexible… But when you realize training is a conversation, it feels much better.  What does that mean?  In a conversation you may have clear objectives, but you know that you will have give and take, you will take information in and adjust, and you will flow with how things evolve with an openness, expanding into the process at hand.  Stay open, and keep training in that conversational mindset this winter - you will improve more as a result!
