About this episode
December is the time to set up the next year. The Year of You. What kind of micro decisions can we make to stay on the right track? How do we handle days off, eating too much, and the guilt that comes with it all. Is this a time for maintenance or getting faster? We look at creating boundaries in life and training, along with feeling empowered to be yourself during a holiday season filled with temptation. We also get into triathlete's relationship with food . . . what's healthy, what's not? Topics: How did you handle the flex week of Thanksgiving? Weight loss and tying it to training Depression and being overweight Bad relationships with ourselves Injuries and not fueling for the level of activity "Feeling" Healthy Overdoing it one way or the other Food guilt Maintenance periods Trying to be perfect year round A positive relationship with yourself Micro decisions Eating slow Over-training and the consequences When we get too close to the fire Slow down and learn your body mechanics Creating boundaries with life and training Feeling empowered to take a day off *** CHECK OUT THE C26 CLUB PROGRAM FOR 2022! --------------- Coach Mike is accepting full-time athletes.
