MicroCAST: Hosted by Coaches TJ David and Zoë Rom. On today's episode we cover hot or not topics: -Toe Socks -Carbon Shoes -Out and Backs -Being a Brand Ambassador We also talk about a few of our favorite shows and movies of late: The Bear, La La Land. And how they paint important narratives about the importance of relationships in going for big dream goals, the coach-athlete relationship, non-linear growth and finding purpose. In the meat of our discussion, we get into Training Adaptations and Timescales for Adaptations. From early, to imtermediate, to advanced adaptations as well as structural adaptations, we talk the listeners through some of the physiology we're aiming to improve on in the training process, how long it takes to realize those adaptations and what athletes can expect to feel along the way. We also talk about the importance of consistency, habit forming behaviors and mindset, as well as the pit falls to avoid in the process.
