Building Athlete IQ: What is it. How do you develop it. How is it different for coaches and athletes at all levels. - E.377
A stronger engine won’t save a weak strategy. We unpack the Athlete IQ triangle—mind, body, and experience—and show how smarter decisions, realistic expectations, and consistent recovery convert raw fitness into reliable performance. We start with the mind: maturity built from tiny habits, patience to trust the timeline, expectations that stretch without delusion, and dedication that actually fits your life. If the goal demands three hours of training and nine hours of sleep, we talk about how to close that gap or change the horizon, and how a supportive circle makes the heavy lift possible.Experience is your competitive edge. We turn daily training into data by tracking warm-ups that unlock better bar speed, pacing that holds under fatigue, and break points that save your grip. You’ll learn to spot patterns from CrossFit history and apply the OODA loop—observe, orient, decide, act—to make mid-workout adjustments that outpace your rivals. When you iterate faster, you win the quiet battles that decide the leaderboard: transitions, sustainable splits, and efficient movement choices.Body is where belief meets stimulus. GPP expands the ceiling, strength lowers effort at the same output, and skill practice sharpens neurological efficiency under fatigue. Then we zoom into the other 23 hours: sleep, food, and downtime that create supercompensation. If you’re always on, you’re never fully on—turning it off is a performance skill. We close with a coach–athlete pact: both sides go as far as the other. When commitment is matched and the triangle stays in balance, results compound week after week.Hit play to raise your Athlete IQ, then tell us where you’ll level up first.
