Some athletes believe the sport they to do is the best one and don’t need to do any other. Me, I believe cross training makes you stronger and better for that single focus sport. Many coaches agree! When I swim, bike, run, strength train and do yoga, I feel better and stronger. But it also reduces the over use of joints and muscles. Many top athletes do cross train. Many of my runners will cross-train which helps them run faster and reduce injury. To keep doing what you love for a long time, cross-train. Be happy and stay healthy! @pamhouck
