#819 – Off-Season Perspective
December 05, 2024 · 46 min

Modern life is loaded with inputs and sometimes we have to disconnect for our sanity. Today, we take a different perspective on the off-season. How can we get better without directly putting your energy into traditional triathlon activity? If you’re already jacked up about your race next Fall, you are probably running a little too rigid. There’s a time and place to sharpen the tip of the spear and starting now will likely lead to burnout. Give your mind and body some space to refuel with different angles that relate to your overall health and well-being. Relax and get back to your true center.

Topics:

Feels like a harsh winter Training in cold vs. heat Distance yourself from the grind Time to experiment Load management syndrome Disconnect and re-energize We need space Take time away to think freely Fend off burnout Experimenting in your own mind Too Much Input It’s all about energy Favorite bands with only two good albums When it’s forced Rigidity eats you up Overload and obsession Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance Sharpening the tip of the spear Connecting non-connecting ideas to triathlon
