#Ep 06 | Why You Feel Worse During Taper (and Why It's Normal)
from The Performance Project Podcast · host Matt Butler
You can't make your race much better during taper — but you can make it a hell of a lot worse.Two weeks out from Sydney Marathon, Matt and Ant break down the taper: why the fatigue hits like a tidal wave after peak week, the difference between fitness and conditioning, and why the hard work is already done. Plus Ant gets honest about burnout and racing for fun again, and Matt declares war in the Beat the Coach series.💻 Join The Performance Project Coaching:https://performanceproject.typeform.com/apply?utm_source=btfl📸 Follow The Performance Project:https://www.instagram.com/the_performance_project_/📸 Follow Coach Matt:https://www.instagram.com/mattb_performance/📸 Follow Coach Ant:https://www.instagram.com/moore_mvmnt/
