Training Tips for Natural Athletes

October 28, 2024Coach Zhang Wei

As a natural athlete, your training approach needs to be strategic and sustainable. Here are key principles that will help you maximize your genetic potential.

Progressive Overload

The foundation of muscle growth is progressively increasing the demands on your muscles over time. This can be achieved through adding weight, increasing reps, or improving form.

Recovery is Key

Natural athletes cannot recover as quickly as enhanced athletes. Prioritize sleep, manage stress, and allow adequate rest between training sessions.

Consistency Over Intensity

Long-term consistent training beats short bursts of extreme intensity. Focus on showing up and putting in quality work day after day.
