Q:
|
How do you train for what’s ahead?
|
A:
|
We start with the big macro-picture and build to the small micro-picture, often four years, and then yearly. We step back from major competitions and build a training plan for these events, keeping in mind the type of athlete we will need to be to win that event. This approach helps us focus on our weaknesses and build our weapons. It gives the body time to make changes to its size and shape.
