There’s more than one way to fix a sticking point, and this isn’t the only method that works. Good mornings and RDLs are one route, not the only route.

What you can actually use comes down to training age. These are loaded, technical movements, they reward people who’ve already built a base of strength and control, not someone in their first few months under a bar. If that’s you, learn the pattern light before you learn it heavy.

Coach accordingly. Train accordingly.

There’s no one right way, only the way that fits where you’re actually at.

Muscle and strength don’t wait for your permission. They start declining at 30 whether you notice or not, and by your 50s the drop off speeds up fast if you’ve done nothing to stop it.

The fix isn’t complicated. Lift heavy, stay consistent, do it for the rest of your life.

That’s it. That’s the whole intervention.

The only real question is whether you start now or start after you’ve already lost something you didn’t need to lose.

Train today.

The people who trim every bit of fat off their chicken and call it “clean eating”?

They’re usually the same people who are always tired, always hungry, and wondering why their energy or their cycle is a mess.

That’s not a coincidence. Fat is not the enemy.

Race day is done. Before you sign up for the next one, take fifteen minutes and actually assess it properly.
What worked.

Write it down honestly, not just “the race went well.” Was your pacing controlled early and honest late, or did adrenaline take you out too hard and the second half made you pay for it. Did your long runs actually prepare you for the specific demands of the day.

What needs work. Most recreational runners carry the same weak links. Hips and glutes that fatigue and let your stride collapse late. Calves and tendons that weren’t conditioned for the repeated loading of 42 kilometres. Hamstrings that never got strong enough to hold your form together when you were tired.

If your legs gave out well before your lungs did, the fix is strength work, not more kilometres.

Pacing deserves its own line. Blowing up after 30 kilometres usually means the strategy was built on feel instead of your actual numbers on the day.

What to start now. Recovery comes first, you’re not there yet. But once you’re back running, this is the work for the next block. Strength train the hips, calves and hamstrings that let you down. Build your paces off real data. That turns the next race into an improvement, not a repeat.

This isn’t an attack on assessment. It’s a problem with selling a screen or a running analysis as a diagnosis of who gets hurt, when the research doesn’t back that up.

There are legitimate, narrow uses.

Return to play after an actual injury, where you need a real baseline to track against. High mileage or elite athletes with a genuinely fine margin, where the extra data earns its cost. Those are edge cases, not the rule.

If someone tells you a screen is a prerequisite to train, ask them for the study showing a score reliably predicts injury.

There isn’t one.

Instead of spending the money on a test that lets almost anyone say almost anything with a straight face, grab the low hanging fruit.

Strength train.

Program the movements that actually match your sport. Get proper programming right.

Then watch what happens.

Self sabotage in training isn’t bad luck. It’s self handicapping, a pattern psychologists have studied for decades.

It works like this. You create a reason to fail before you even attempt the thing, so if it goes wrong you’ve already got an excuse ready. Sick. Injured. Too busy. Something that happened to you, not something you did.

Research on athletes backs this up directly. Illness and injury are the two most commonly cited excuses, because they read as circumstance instead of a decision.

The three nights out before race day. The dropped sessions. The ego rep on an easy week that blows out a joint. None of that is misfortune.

It’s the excuse getting built in advance, and it protects your ego at the exact moment it costs you the result.

Notice it before it happens and you get to choose differently.

Follow the plan, own the outcome, and find out what you’re actually capable of.
