Train with the Seasons: Structuring Your Training Year as an Everyday Athlete
Description
In this episode, I break down exactly how to structure your training year using a system I call Training with the Seasons. This is a practical framework for everyday athletes looking to keep making progress year-round.
You’ll learn how to rotate your training focus across the year for better results, more consistency, and long-term athleticism. We cover periodization basics, how to align training with real life, how to approach conditioning, and the biggest mistakes to avoid when planning your year.
