In this episode we talk about the importance of being adaptable. We also talk about a stress bucket (???), Gregg's sausage rolls (for the 3rd time), avoiding training legs cause you've got a dodgy ankle and getting skinned by a 5's team full of old guys wearing Samba's. Enjoy!
The serious bit: Everyday there are numerous situations we will find ourselves in where we have to adapt. Having the flexibility to adapt to different environments, situations and challenges is a crucial life skill and one that can also be utilised in a sporting context. We attempt to outline the value of adaptability in these differing contexts as well as offering tips for developing this skill.
