Testing, Training, Competing: Knowing the difference and getting the most from each - E.382


Listen Later

Testing. Training. Competing.
They sound interchangeable—but confusing them is one of the fastest ways to stall your progress.

In this episode of The Misfit Podcast, Drew and Paige break down:

  • What testing, training, and competing actually are
  • Why each one exists (and when it doesn’t)
  • How ego, pacing, and athlete IQ derail results
  • How to use data, RPE, and strategy to actually get better
  • The dangerous gray area of “throwing down” too often

This conversation is part philosophy, part practical coaching clinic—covering everything from AMRAP math and baseline tests to why intensity without intention kills adaptation.

Whether you’re prepping for the Open, Quarterfinals, or just want to train smarter without burning out, this episode will change how you approach your workouts.
