“Choice of attention–to pay attention to this and to ignore that–is to the inner life what choice of action is to the outer.  In both cases, a person is responsible for that choice and must accept the consequences.”
- W.H. Auden

Training Tasks of the Day
1. Relax – sometimes decompressing is as important as the hard work you put in at the gym.
2. Myofascial Release (foam roller, lax ball, barbell mashing, etc…)
3. Stretching/Band-Assissted Mobility Work
4. Plan and Prepare Meals – if you’re not eating right, you’re wasting your time. Make sure you have the right fuel available to you throughout the week. If you have a full-time job and spend 90 minutes a day in the gym, I expect that you use at least 90-120 minutes on Thursday and Sunday to plan and/or prepare meals for the next few days.

For 2 and 3 – If you aren’t intimately familiar with Kelly Starrett’s work on the Mobility Project, start now. K-Star is the MAN when it comes to helping athletes improve their positions – and improved positioning means better performance. Get to MWOD, pick a few that address your trouble areas and reap the benefits for a long time.

Here’s a really good article about breaking up your training throughout the year.  Check it out-> Train Like An Athlete
