I forgot to notify you when I posted the forty-seventh installment
of my column. It is titled “Practical Application of Principles of
Training, Part V” and is available at
http://www.stadion.com/column_stretch47.html.

Here is a short excerpt from that article:

The principle of economy of effort is about using the least
training load necessary to deliver a desired result, for example,
to develop or maintain any ability or skill.
[...] this should not be interpreted as an excuse for laziness. It
just means that one should do only as much work as needed to reach
desired or required goals because doing more is counterproductive
or even self-defeating. Doing much less, like all those weaklings
and nincompoops who join the commercial martial arts schools but do
not ever push themselves, is typical for low-quality individuals--I
do not write for those....

Sincerely,

Thomas Kurz
