Exponential Performance Coaching training tip of the week
A strong skill and technique base are the under the under lying foundations of a peak performance. If you do not have the right skills or correct technique to optimally translate your hard earn fitness into speed then you will never reach your full potential. Use your early season base training to focus on developing your skills and technique so you have a strong foundation to launch your future training off.
Happy training
Matty
