Could not agree with this more.

It's hard for people to trust their body when they're not paying attention to it. It's hard for them to have a relationship with food when it comes out of a packet and they don't ever handle the ingredients. The culture of optimisation distracts us from what our bodies already know.

I like to call this “Body Awareness”…

We, the athletes, need to redescover how regain that!

We, the coaches, need to emphasise this concept. This article offers the right tools! Thank you Legend
