Pulling the reins on a high-performing, highly motivated tactical athlete seems counterproductive, but too many times, athletes will hurt themselves (or their performance) by thinking they must continue to do more training to improve their performance.
You will see this especially in special-ops preparation and among competitive athletes. Countless high performers have benefited from decreasing the frequency, intensity and total time training each week by either adding an easier option or taking a rest day or two.

While stress seems like an inevitable, natural response in our everyday lives at this point, it is important to know that it is actually wreaking havoc on your overall health and wellness.
