Strength athletes control your variables.

Strength athletes, how well do you control your variables? I recently wrote an article for Elitefts.com where I discuss variables and how to stay in the game long. This pertains to strength athletes, mainly but not limited to only strength athletes. Stepping away from strength sports after 20 years of competing gives me a unique perspective on the path after sitting back for the last two years. Many of these points are covered in my strength training book 10/20/Life which was released in 2017, also.

Strength athlete variables

This article covers different things one must consider when being all in, such as diet, stress management, training partners, and training on how to compete. It’s incredible how often these variables are overlooked in one’s pathway.

Article quote

“Experience is the best teacher. Now that I no longer compete, I want to help strength athletes stay in the game as long as possible. So here are some of the big rocks or boulders you should focus on in your training and your entire approach, especially if you’re trying to compete at the highest level many people overlook.

Of course, this is for the strength athlete, not only the equipped and unequipped powerlifter, so don’t check on me. Nevertheless, most of these details are incredibly pertinent, regardless of how you choose to compete, and are in no particular order.”
