You can put in more reps, add more workouts, and spend more time training…
But if the quality is poor—or your body can’t stay healthy enough to keep showing up—more isn’t always better.
In Episode 86, Joe Neal, Founder of 2SP Sports Performance, explains why availability, resilience, and quality practice matter so much for long-term development.
Jeff Lerg even credits Joe with helping extend his playing career by teaching him one major lesson:
