Earlier this week we listened to a great podcast from the guys at Spartan who interview Scratch Lab inventor - Dr. Allen Lim.

For years Allen Lim worked with Tour de France teams and has learned a lot about working in high pressure situations and how to develop performance. In a sport that focuses so intently on marginal gains, Lim argues that athletes should be focusing less on the 1% and more on removing bottlenecks from our lives. This gives way to a much better focus and performance.

So today we are discussing the bottlenecks that we see in the sport and how to solve them.

In Today's Episode We Cover:

• Understanding marginal gains.
• Underestimate the value of making better decisions on a daily basis.
• The "Never Miss Twice" rule.
• Understanding your Rate Limiting Factors.
• Seeking to create better habits.
• The bottlenecks we see in triathlon (and life).
• Becoming a solution creator.
• Learning to have fun.
• We also discuss some important and very relevant aspects of the movie "Fed Up" (you need to watch this film!)
