I might have been 1:13hr after the winner, but top 10 is top 10, right!

@stevemagness I’ve used them either at the start of a hard run, to prime & prep. Or at the end of an easy run just to add a little pep to the session. Never felt bad after a set of strides. 5x20/40secs is my go to.

@stevemagness Look what I wrote on a post it note months ago!.. it’s been sat next to me at my desk since then. Best get my finger out!… should I purchase your book too! Ps. Ignore the pink text!👍😁

@Alan_Couzens Love this Alan… as a coach who sits & plans workouts all day, then puts them to the test from the pool deck. TBH I rarely use Ai because it doesn’t really help me, yet.

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

@Alan_Couzens Haha

A new study shows why it's far easier to maintain or rebuild fitness, than it is to build it in the first place.

Your cells retain an "epigenetic memory" of training.

Even after a long layoff, they are primed to adapt at a cellular level.

It's as if your body remembers, "I've been here before."

It's "old man strength" in action...

Needed to read that tonight… thanks

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

My 1st book got rejected by every publisher I sent it to as too niche. I self-published. It sold 60k copies

My 2nd book got rejected by 21 publishers. It sold 300k copies

If you believe in an idea, get it out there. Don't get dragged down by others views. Trust yourself

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

Now sat at my desk ready to get to work…

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

Leg day at the gym earlier, followed by a 3min swim & 10min sauna… all body weight stuff in the gym earlier. You gotta start where you are, not where you wanna be. Why just 3mins in the pool? That’s all i could be bothered with TBH.

I’ve climbed many mountains over the years.
Whenever you think you’re at the top and found peace, there’s still higher ground ahead. Keep climbing my friend, or you will miss all the heavenly glory. “Like a finger pointing away to the moon…” Bruce Lee, Enter the Dragon.

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

@newstart_2024 I found peace, then someone ripped it away, and why? Because i let them. I’d like to think it won’t happen again, the ripping it away bit. But I will find peace again, and be ready next time. Always building, always fortifying MY castle.

@stevemagness As the saying goes Steve, “what sells doesn’t work, and what works doesn’t sell!”

@inaki_delaparra @ArildTveiten This is pure gold. Thanks for sharing.

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

I’ve shared this before & i’m sharing it again… simple but brilliant advice!

[Steve Magness @stevemagness]

I've spent a decade working with Olympians and pro athletes from every major league during their biggest moments.

Here are 8 lessons on handling pressure better that we can all use:

Could not agree more with Dan’s sentiment here… & incase you were wondering, I love it too! 👍🤩

[Dan Lorang 🇱🇺 @Danlorang]

I’m currently preparing a 150-page performance review from the first part of the season. Ultimately, the conclusion is the same: sports is more than just pure numbers; it’s about humans and everything that comes with them. This makes it both challenging and exciting. I love it 😃

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

@brady_h I need your review first. Then, maybe!?

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

@stevemagness Wow, that came round quick. Can’t wait to give it a listen. Right, where’s my dog, I’m off for a walk!👍

[Dan Dickinson @dan_temper]

@brady_h Awesome work Brady👏👏well done!
