Episode notes

Are you working out but not getting stronger, faster or fitter? Maybe you're consistent but your progress has stalled. Maybe you're struggling to fit your workouts around dog training. Or maybe you're doing a LOT and wondering why you're not seeing better results.

In this episode, I'm taking you inside five coaching conversations with handlers who all wanted to improve their fitness but needed very different things to make that happen.

We'll look at when adding another workout makes sense, why consistency might be more important than changing your program, how to get more from the workouts you're already doing, and when recovery is actually the thing that's missing.

We'll also talk about minimum effective dose versus optimal dose, and why you don't need to be trying to improve every part of your fitness at the same time.

Because the answer isn't always to do more, and it certainly isn't always to do less.

The better question is: What does this goal need from you next?

By the end, you'll have a practical way to evaluate your own training and decide what needs to change to keep moving forward.
