The Importance of Consistency in Training

Consistency in training is key for long-term progress. Finding a repeatable training week with the right amount of stress that allows for recovery and adaptation is crucial. Rushing training or pushing too hard near a race can lead to negative effects on race day performance. Patience is important, as incremental changes over time lead to improvements. Trust the process and focus on delivering consistent training rather than chasing high variety or sudden improvements in performance.
