  • Winter Training Window

    It's very important to us as a team, that we look at our athletes holistically. We want to know what their sport commitments are, what their school commitments are, and how life is currently treating them. This is important to us because all of this, including our work, is stress on the athletes' body. 

    Today we chat for a bit about the youth soccer athletes' fifty-two week sport and school commitments and how our training windows align with these commitments.  We chat about what seasons and training windows are best for progress and what season and windows should be viewed as maintenance.

    Thank you for listening to episode number two of our podcast.
