Episode Notes

When racing, we're all familiar with having someone fly past us at light speed, making us wonder if we're even competing in the same race. This can be quite demoralising in some cases, as we wonder what it is that we're missing, what it is we're doing wrong that's keeping us from achieving the same level of results as them.

In this week's episode I break down the components of performance, to hopefully help you understand where it is you need to focus your efforts to help you close the gap to the athletes at the front of the field.
