“Subjective Training”
Life-long fitness is often most rewarding and successful when “subjective training” is intelligently employed. Subjective training being best defined by daily exercise goals that are determined primarily upon how you feel; coupled of course with pre-established longer term goals and plans. For instance, just because you’re scheduled to execute a long endurance run on a particular day doesn’t mean that you necessarily should. Perhaps your body is presenting signs that a shorter day is in order or discarding the run altogether is most needed. And re-working muscles for instance that are sore and damaged from a previous workout, just because they’re scheduled again, is often a recipe for setback or worse. These are subjective decisions based upon biofeedback that no long-term plan can account for; but certainly can accommodate with the right amount of afterthought. Granted this type of training is not for everyone. Those who have trouble sticking to training plans in the first place don’t do well with too much discretion here… and those who lack fitness experience often misread the signs of biofeedback.
But if you know your body and you really know your stuff… there’s no better way to stay healthy, motivated and fit for a lifetime!
