Training Insanity - ELITETRACK

Insanity is doing the same training year after year with the same people and expecting different results. Look around and you will see how prevalent this is. There is no thought to progression, advancing training age, and accumulation of training effects. Each training year, for that matter each training cycle, should be a logical extension of the previous cycle and lead seamlessly into the next cycle. Progression is only linear on paper, in reality different qualities adapt at different rates as do different athletes, this must be taken into account in planning the progression of training. The genesis of many of the injuries you see in sports today is a lack of progression. The programs NEVER change and one program is expected to fit all athletes.
