Today, we discuss two topics: training philosophy and finding one's career path. I share my insights on training theory, including the importance of different effort levels, the benefits of cold plunges and sauna work, and the progression from least specific to most specific training. I also share my personal journey of finding a career path, which involved exploring different industries, gaining exposure through various projects, valuing interpersonal connections, and giving back.
Takeaways
-Training theory involves different effort levels, from easy to hard, and progresses from least specific to most specific training.
-Cold plunges can be beneficial for recovery, but may skip steps in the recovery process, while sauna work has few drawbacks.
-Finding one's career path involves exploring different industries, gaining exposure through various projects, and valuing interpersonal connections.
-When approaching brands for sponsorship, it's important to show how you can help them sell their products and to have a purpose and plan for the future.
-Giving back and valuing the community and connections in your field can be just as important as having a large audience or impressive accomplishments.
