The Power of Conviction: Rethinking Periodization - with Prof. John Kiely & Paul Laursen

If you still think that sport science CANNOT be about FAITH and TRUST because it is some weird “touchy softy” 🤦‍♂️ thing, then you are likely to FAIL 😥.Prof. John Kiely wants you to understand that BELIEFS 🤩 are a building block of all training sessions. You need to INTEGRATE everything around what YOU and your ATHLETES believe to be true (placebo effects), or not to be true (nocebo effects). In the 86th episode of The Training Science Podcast, Paul and John discuss:📅 how your HEAD & BODY are NOT separate, and why you need to consider it for all training issues;📜 where TRUST, BELIEF & FAITH have their place in coaching & training;🥇 why placebo and NOCEBO effects are likely more important than you think._____________________ REMEMBER:🏆 Iron Triathlon Bundle™ 🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃🏽‍♂️🏆✅ Dive into a dedicated HIIT-specific course tailored specifically for triathlon enthusiasts.✅ Elevate your game with additional HIIT courses customized for swimming, running, and cycling, fine-tuning each discipline to perfection.✅ Enjoy a full-year membership to our cutting-edge ADAPTIVE training platform, @Athletica_ai .
