It may seem like I'm being contrary, but it's true.

Perfection is not the goal of training for a sport. I want people to be able to have fun at training. We've all watched athletes who train so hard that they have to stop and do nothing when a coach comes by to get them, or who are in a race and train so hard that they are exhausted. When they are finally on the field, they are stiff and out of shape. I want to see that in people who train in my classes.

So, I train a lot of people who can run for miles, but they can't do anything more than that. I train people who can do push-ups; who swim; who ski; who ski into slalom courses with me; whose shoulders are as strong as anyone's in my group.

I train people who are in good shape and who can do the most amazing jump rope techniques if they push themselves. We all have our limits, but I push my limits and see if I can't push more, and I see if I don't have to push at all. The point is, just do what you think you are good at.
