1% Every Day

Todd Durkin, a performance coach in San Diego and council member for Under Armor, recently wrote an article directed towards summer training programs. The article highlighted opportunities high school athletes have during the summer months to really put themselves in position for success. My favorite points from the article as they relate to FOCUS athletes are:

- May, June, and July are the best months to get an edge on competition

- Train 3-4 times a week, 45-90 minutes depending on workout targets

- 1/3 of training should concentrate on all modes of movement

- Recovery is the hidden secret (your body recovers and grows with proper nutrition and rest)

- Clean up your diet (you know the difference between good and bad)

Todd goes on to make the statement “Get 1% better every day and it will be scary how good YOU will be come pre-season time and game time.” 1% everyday isn’t that much to ask. Make the commitment and when the three months of summer are over, you’ll be 90% better then when you started.
