Tripping over Dollars to Pick up Pennies - Ep176


In this walking podcast I talk about the tension between looking for marginal gains in contrast to focusing on basic principles. 


Far too often I see athletes putting carts before horses. Or, tripping over dollars to pick up pennies. Choose your analogy, but the message is: getting lost in details when they don’t have foundational health and sporting principles in order. 


Even more controversial: for an athlete who has their 80/20 dialed, rather than occupying time and energy over turning every small stone looking for “more watts”, turn your 80/20 into 85/15.
