We sit around and debate periodization schemes, toss around ideas on energy system development, and discuss movement. But really, in the grand scheme of things, how much does that matter? While it is certainly interesting and important, videos like the one below make me often question what it is I do for a career, as there are professionals out there that are doing things which impact millions of people on a daily basis: doctors who are working to save lives, researchers who are studying the body to “crack the code” behind fatal diseases, etc.
Don’t get me wrong. I love this profession and I can’t think of anything more I am interested in doing. However, videos like this always make me think about if what I do really matters.
