In this episode of the Sexier Than a Squirrel podcast Tom and Lauren are talking about TRAINING SESSIONS - specifically, what is the perfect length? What is the MAGIC number when it comes to the length of a training session?

Did you know, contrary to popular belief, you actually DO NOT need to end your training on a good note? 

If what you are working on or trying to train is not going in the direction you want and things are not improving in that moment, it's not likely to get any better in that session. It's absolutely OKAY to say enough is enough - we'll try again another time!

Lots of smaller sessions throughout a day or over a week are going to be SO much more successful than one big, long session... Why? Listen in to find out!

In this super cool episode, we'll be answering questions like:

  • How long do you keep your dog in a training session? When do you say, "Okay, that's enough for now!"
  • How to stop yourself from doing too much repetition, going too long and just generally 'overtraining?
  • How do you know WHEN to say enough is enough?

The reality is, the longer a training session goes on, there comes a point where Cortisol (the stress hormone), begins to kick in - just like in human exercise! To combat this, that's where our super fun training foundation of 3 Minute Games comes from!

With 3 Minute Games, you have short, fun sessions full of all the beneficial hormones (like testosterone for boosting confidence and optimism) that are going to unlock MASSIVE real-life results for you and your dog!

Are you ready to get the most out of your training session, to stop saying "just one more" and to truly achieve those real-life results you've been looking for? 

Well, get ready because, in this awesome episode, Tom and Lauren are bringing you some of their fast-fire top tips and hacks when it comes to training proactively to get those real-life results AND save time while you're at it - how cool is that?!
