The Workout with instant results…Does it exist?

Watching a technical video/demonstration on the internet can make an immediate difference on one particular skill. Maybe changing hand positions on the ball results in a quicker, smoother pass. Or shifting your foot position creates a more stable base in your scrum profile. But can one, single workout make a difference in your physical development? Or can one meal, or one day, make a difference in your nutrition?

As we are in the days of instant news, instant updates and instant response, more and more young athletes seek the same out of their training plan: instant results. I checked in with an athlete recently who was just two weeks into a training plan. During the conversation, they mentioned having switched workout routines because they did not feel it was making a difference. Similarly, athletes have given up on nutrition habits (notice I didn’t say diet) after just one week.

The key is that, unlike technical adjustments, there are no instant fixes when it comes to workouts or nutrition. As one coach says, “Habits are like threads and as they are repeated over time they become strong cables.” Too often, we cut our threads (break our habits/routines) before they become strong enough to make a real difference in our lives. Rather, we have to know the bigger picture, trust in the process, see it through and then evaluate the results that were achieved.
