A great article! As a Coach, doing Training Plans is a huge part of our investment in building the athlete/coach relationship, but it involves building the Annual Training Plan, weekly sessions and responding to questions and concerns. Invest in a Varidesk and make a game out of the day. 1 athlete standing, 1 sitting, and I like adding, "sitting criss cross applesause". Friendly reminders for everyone sitting during the work day! #letskeepourbodiesmoving #motionislotion #soarhigherthanyoudarewithaflexiblebody #sitstandcrisscross #acoachsday https://www.trainingpeaks.com/blog/how-to-survive-desk-life/
