My Thoughts Monday #99- Make The Performance Triangle of Sleep, Training, and Nutrition an Equilateral One

“We need to make this triangle with three points. One point is sleep, one point is training, and one point is their training, and we need to make that triangle as equilateral as possible.”

This weeks My Thoughts Monday is a review of a huge take home from Cheryl Zonkowski’s talk. She discussed how nutrition and training don’t matter much if you’re athlete’s aren’t sleeping. This really spurred me to change how I look at those three. In the past I’ve looked at them as three individual entities, but if we look at them as the same triangle we can now look at which one is negatively impacting the other, or where we are putting in the most energy and where we can do better by the athlete. Although we may have some limitations, it’s partly our job to make this triangle as equilateral as possible through better education, and by leading the athlete’s to make better decisions to improve those aspects
