The sport I choose is trail running
This is long distance running through forests, up mountains and along rugged terrain. Trail running consists of running as well as climbing and jumping.

Functional exercises incorporate multiple muscle groups into a single movement and stress the neuromuscular system.

Apply stress to the muscular system by performing six to 12 repetitions per exercise. Choose a weight that becomes challenging at the end of the set.

To be good at something you must excel at every single aspect of it and the only way to do that is to constantly practice practice and more practice.
