One Comment
Glad you addressed the coach/athlete relationship in this show because I got the same impression as some of the other listeners that Brett did not have the intention of implementing Tawnee’s suggestions. Liked that Brett admitted to making some diet changes even though he said in earlier shows that he wouldn’t. Love both of your podcasts. Keep up the good work.
