7 Training Habits Average Athletes Skip (But Elite Athletes Never Do)

Why do the best athletes train less intensely than you might think — and still get better results?

In this episode, Ben, Cole, and Jamison break down the seven training principles that separate elite performance from burnout: warming up like you mean it, lifting with intention instead of ego, and understanding that pacing is the actual secret to getting fitter.

You'll discover why training at 60% effort builds more capacity than going all-out every session, why rest days aren't optional, and how discipline beats intensity every single time.

These aren't hacks — they're the fundamentals that create sustainable, lifelong strength. If you're training hard but not seeing results, this episode will change how you show up in the gym tomorrow.
