Weekly Reflections: Separating the Circles...

This might be a topical read given present circumstances. Many athletes are contemplating cancelled competition seasons, or at the very least the cancellation or postponement of major events that have been their focus for an extended period (the 2020 Olympics being perhaps the biggest example). Arguably more disconcerting is the numerous instances where the situation remains unclear, and so there is an onus to continue preparations without knowing if and when events will go ahead. It is fair to say the majority of us are faced with questions on how to proceed given the present restrictions, and a lack of certainty on what the coming months hold.

Weekly Reflections: Partnerships

Weekly Reflections: Partnerships

Welcome back to regular readers, and a warm welcome to those who are new to the Prepared Athlete Training & Health project. The theme of our regular update this week is partnerships. As noted in the prologue we shared, the genesis of this project was built upon the ultimate partnership, in the sense that my wife Sian is the most important partner, enthusiastic supporter, de facto benefactor, and business coach behind this endeavour. Beyond that, this thread of partnerships runs through all aspects of how Prepared ATH operates and our work with athletes. And as luck would have it, each of these various facets have been evident over the past two weeks!
