More

It is so easy to say more is not better and then go right back to doing more. In many ways more is easy, one more rep, one more run or swim, you can do it. The question is why? Is doing more better? In my experience, both first hand and through observation more is definitely not better. Set a target; achieve it with both quality and intensity. Remember there is a distinction; quality is a measure of perfect and intensity is a measure of 100%. Know what you objectives are in training and set reasonable means to achieve those objectives. I am reminded of the words of a country western song: “Work your fingers to bone, what do you get? Boney fingers.” Train with a purpose to get results in competition.
