    Simplicity Yields Complexity

    0
    By Vern Gambetta on October 31, 2014 Vern Gambetta's Blog

    I am a simplifier. If I can?t explain it in five minutes or less and explain to someone who knows nothing about training an athlete then I should reconsider what I am trying to do. The following is a summary of the process of preparing a completely adaptable athlete to be ready to compete to win at the appointed time:

    Get Functionally Strong

    Get Functionally Fast

    Get Functionally Fit

    Get Specific

    Compete

    Not many words, it is very direct, simple but very complex in it?s applications. Remember the goal is not to make it complex, but to make it simpler; the body is complex enough without adding unnecessary complexity.
